Zweig Market Breadth Thrust Indicator [LazyBear]
The Breadth Thrust (BT) indicator is a market momentum indicator developed by Dr. Martin Zweig. According to Dr. Zweig a Breadth Thrust occurs when, during a 10-day period, the Breadth Thrust indicator rises from below 40 percent to above 61.5 percent.
A "Thrust" indicates that the stock market has rapidly changed from an oversold condition to one of strength, but has not yet become overbought. This is very rare and has happened only a few times. Dr. Zweig also points out that most bull markets begin with a Breadth Thrust.
All parameters are configurable. You can draw BT for NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX or based on combined data (i.e., AMEX+NYSE+NASD). There is also a "CUSTOM" mode supported, so you can enter your own ADV/DEC symbols.
