Open-10 TRIN
OPEN-10 TRIN

Overview

The Open-10 TRIN is a smoothed variation of the Arms Index. It is a market breadth indicator that uses advancing/declining volume and advancing/declining issues to measure the strength of the market.


Interpretation

The interpretation of Open-10 TRIN (also called the Open Trading Index) is similar to the interpretation of the "normal" TRIN.

Readings above 0.90 are generally con-sidered bearish and readings below 0.90 are considered bullish.

The following table was reprinted from Peter Eliades' Stock Market Cycles. It shows what the DJIA did after the 10-day TRIN rose above the level of one. Impressive...
