It’s useful to look at stock market levels compared to where they’ve been over the past few months. When the S&P 500 is above its moving or rolling average of the prior 125 trading days, that’s a sign of positive momentum. But if the index is below this average, it shows investors are getting skittish.
- Momentum is the speed or velocity of price changes in a stock, security, or tradable instrument.
- Momentum shows the rate of change in price movement over a period of time to help investors determine the strength of a trend.
- Investors use momentum to trade stocks whereby a stock can exhibit bullish momentum–the price is rising–or bearish momentum–the price is falling.
The Fear & Greed Index uses slowing momentum as a signal for Fear and a growing momentum for Greed.
