Why I Don’t Track the NH-NL Line

I like just about all types of breadth indicators, but I have learned that each type of breadth data requires its own proper manner of interpretation. The whole point of looking at breadth data is to get a different answer about market behavior than what prices are saying, and hopefully that different answer is a useful one.

Market Breadth Data Notes
- We use WSJ/Barron's data for our final breadth numbers. Calculations made on numbers from other sources will show a slightly different result.
- We wait until late in the day in order to have access to the "final" numbers.
- This reflects final readings for the indicators covered.
- Values for indicators calculated using preliminary numbers released just after the close usually differ slightly from these numbers.
- We usually recommend that readers keep their own data for themselves, but this is a useful way to check and see if your numbers agree with ours.
Starting 3/8/2012:
