Product reference · Reviewed 26 September 2026

What breadth can show

Advances, declines and unchanged counts help distinguish broad participation from movement led by a small number of stocks.

How to use it

Read breadth before reviewing individual scanner results. Treat it as context, then verify liquidity, price structure and sector participation.

What it cannot show

Breadth does not predict the next move and can change quickly, especially around the open, news and expiry sessions.

Risk reminder

Use this information for software orientation and independent review. It is not a buy, sell or hold recommendation, and no condition or score assures an outcome.
