Advance-Decline Index (A-D Index) A useful tool for detecting bullish or bearish trend in the stock market in which one divides the number of traded shares which have risen in price by those which have fallen. For example, if 200 shares have advanced and 100 declined on a particular day the A-D index is 2. Numbers more than 1 indicate a bullish trend and less than 1 a bearish trend.

If the markets are up but there are more declining stocks than advancing ones, it's usually a sign that the markets are losing their breadth. If the number of advancing issues are dominating the declining issues and the market is then said to be healthy. If it is falling, then the market is not healthy.
