## What the numbers mean

Market breadth measures how many stocks take part in a move. The share of stocks above a moving average is the most common gauge: the 10 and 20-day show short-term participation, the 50-day the intermediate trend and the 200-day the long-term trend. When an index rises while fewer stocks stay above their averages, the advance is narrowing. Read the full [market breadth guide](https://getmarketstrength.com/market-breadth-indicator).

## Frequently asked questions

### What is a good market breadth reading?

There is no fixed line, but traders often treat more than 60 to 70% of stocks above their 50-day average as a broad, healthy advance and less than 30% as weak. Watch the direction as well as the level.

### How is this different from the advance-decline ratio?

The advance-decline ratio counts one day’s rising and falling stocks. The share above a moving average shows how many stocks are in an uptrend over weeks or months, so it is steadier.

### How often is this page updated?

After each NSE trading day’s close. This version is as of 3 Nov 2026.

### Does weak breadth mean the market will fall?

No. Breadth describes participation now; it is not a forecast. Markets can stay narrow or turn broad without warning.
