Advance/Decline Ratio (A/D Ratio)

(Indicators based on the "advances" and "declines" concept)


Description: Advance decline ratio applied to advances and declines and to volume of advancing and declining stocks. Examples of technical analysis and indicators on the S&P 500 index charts.

The Complete "Advance/Decline Ratio" article could be found in the tutorial on the MarketVolume's website.

The concept of "advance/decline ratios" can be applied to issues (securities), as well as to volume.

The formula for calculating the A/D ratio is simple:

A/D Ratio = (Advances / Declines)

Advance/Decline Ratio looks very much like the AD line; however, in contrast to the AD line, the AD ratio cannot be negative.

The advance/decline ratio is frequently used as an "overbought/oversold" indicator to indicate possible market reversal points. Some analysts also use it to measure market sentiment. Others say that it is a good tool to define when stocks are overvalued or undervalued. The case can be made for each of these interpretations – it all depends on the exact definitions of the terms "overbought/oversold", "market sentiment", and "undervalued/overvalued".
