Updated: Daily
As with all internal strength indicators, the up/down volume and the advance/decline oscillators must be considered together. If one of the indicators is overbought and then turns down it may only be an early warning. It is common for one of the intermediate-term indicators to exceed its significant level for weeks or months. However, the combination of both indicators being overbought and then turning down often foreshadows significant market declines. Similarly, when looking for a bottom in a bear market, it has been prudent to wait for both indicators to be oversold and then turn up before becoming bullish. Therefore, the volume and advance/decline calculations are combined into a single gauge labeled "30 Day Adv/Dec" on the Market Gauge Page. This indicator requires both values to be overextended to generate a reading.
