President and Chief Strategist, Sierra Alpha Research

Market breadth often reveals what the major indexes can’t. In this video, Dave compares long-term and short-term breadth indicators to determine whether the current rally remains healthy or is beginning to lose momentum. Learn how moving average breadth, the McClellan Oscillator, new 52-week highs, and Bullish Percent Indexes can help identify improving participation, early warning signs, and the conditions that could confirm either a renewed advance or a deeper market pullback.
