Advance / Decline Ratio (ADR): This is the ratio of number of shares that closed higher than the previous day’s closing price (Advance) or closed lower than the previous day’s closing price (Decline). Simply saying advance means price increase and decline means price of the share is decreased. Theoretically, a market will be more bullish if more stocks advance than decline and vice versa.
Below is the data showing advance / decline ratio on 21/08/2019.
Market | Advance | Decline | Ratio |
NSE | 330 | 1,262 | 0.26 |
The above data shows the market is in a bearish trend because decline is nearly four times than advance. In addition to ADR, NIFTY is in a clear bearish mode – lost 98.30 points on 21/08/2019. Nifty may come down to 10,818 from the present level of 10,918.70 which will drag most of the shares to bearish mode. If NIFTY couldn’t sustain at 10,818, it might go down further till 10,629 and the next level of bottom can be 10,435.
Hence Nifty support levels are 10,818 – 10,629 – 10,435 from the present level of 10,918.70
