Market Term
Breadth
Breadth measures participation in a move: how many components are advancing versus declining. A stronger trend usually has broad participation, while narrow leadership can be more fragile.
Why It Matters
Broad participation supports durability. Narrow participation can signal concentration risk and weaker follow-through.
Pokoin News Context
In Pokoin News breadth describes how aligned the overall signal ecosystem is. Higher breadth means more parts of the market narrative are confirming each other.
Quick Interpretation
If only a few names are carrying the move, breadth is usually weaker. If participation is wide, trend quality is usually stronger.
