Zweig Breadth Thrust possible?

This is a Google AI summary about this indicator:

The Zweig Breadth Thrust (ZBT) is a rare but powerful technical indicator used in stock market analysis to identify significant shifts in market momentum. It measures market breadth, which is the number of advancing stocks versus declining stocks, and is based on the advance/decline ratio. When the market pivots from oversold to overbought conditions, the ZBT is triggered.

Here's a more detailed explanation:



  • What it measures:
    The ZBT is calculated by dividing the number of advancing stocks by the total number of advancing plus declining stocks, typically within a 10-day period.



  • How it's triggered:
    The ZBT is considered triggered when the ratio of advancing stocks to the total number of stocks rises significantly, often from a low percentage (around 40%) to a high percentage (around 60%) within a short time frame (less than ten days).




  • Historical Significance:
    Martin Zweig, a successful investor, developed this indicator, and it has been shown to be a reliable signal for predicting future market gains. The ZBT has been triggered 17 times since World War II, and in all cases, stocks were higher six and 12 months later.




  • Why it matters:
    The ZBT provides a unique perspective on market strength and can be a valuable tool for identifying potential investment opportunities, especially in times of significant market shifts.
