Market Closed

Overview​

The Market Closed profile gives you a full end-of-day view of group strength, participation, and setup concentration after both the regular and post-market sessions have finished. It helps you review where leadership held, where weakness expanded, and which industries or themes may carry opportunity into the next trading day.

info

This profile activates automatically when the market is closed and brings together end-of-day price movement, volume participation, divergence signals, earnings timing, and Top Alpha setup concentration for overnight review and next-day preparation.

Strategy Focus​

  • Review full-session leadership to see which industries or themes stayed strong through the close and after-hours trading
  • Track group-level participation using price movement, relative strength, and volume concentration across the market
  • Spot carryover setups by focusing on groups with strong Top Alpha Setups readings into the close
  • Monitor divergence and compression signals that may turn into breakouts or reversals the next session
  • Compare fundamental quality through EPS Rating, Sales Rating, Profit Rating, and Accumulation/Distribution Score
  • Build next-day group watchlists before drilling into individual stocks in Ticker Screener, Group Viewer, or Multi-Charts

Filters Applied​

This is a default column-only profile. No filters are applied, so all groups remain visible and are sorted by end-of-day strength.

Metrics Used​

Group Structure and Identity​

  • Industry / Theme: Identifies the group you are reviewing, whether it is a traditional industry or a broader market theme.
  • Tickers: Shows how many companies make up the group, which helps frame breadth and relevance.

End-of-Day Price Movement​

  • Change Post (%): Tracks market-cap-weighted movement during the post-market session to show whether a group strengthened or weakened after the close.
  • Change From Close (%): Tracks market-cap-weighted movement during the regular session only, giving a clean view of how the group performed during core market hours.

Group Ratings and Fundamentals​

  • Group Rating 1 Day: Ranks group strength for the day and helps surface the strongest and weakest areas after the full session has played out.
  • Group Rating 1 Year: Adds long-term context by showing whether the group has been a sustained leader or laggard over the past 12 months.
  • EPS Rating: Highlights group-level earnings strength and helps confirm whether leadership is supported by strong profit growth.
  • Sales Rating: Measures revenue momentum at the group level and helps identify areas with stronger top-line expansion.
  • Profit Rating: Adds margin and return-quality context, helping separate durable leadership from weaker moves.
  • Accumulation/Distribution Score: Shows whether institutional buying or selling pressure has been building across the group.

Relative Strength and Momentum​

  • Rel. Strength 1 Day 90+ (%): Shows the percentage of companies in the group with very strong relative strength today, which helps measure internal leadership.
  • Rel. Strength 1 Year 90+ (%): Shows the percentage of companies in the group with long-term leadership, helping confirm structural strength.

Volume and Liquidity​

  • Total Volume (%): Shows how much of the market’s total daily volume came from the group, which helps identify where attention and capital were concentrated.
  • Relative Volume: Compares group-wide activity with the typical full-session average, helping confirm whether the move had real participation.
  • Return Year to Date (%): Adds broader trend context by showing how the group has performed since the start of the year.

Earnings Activity​

  • Reports Earnings Within 1 Week: Highlights how many companies in the group report earnings within the next five trading days, which is useful for planning around near-term catalysts.

Price Breakouts​

  • Last Price > Prev. High (%): Shows the percentage of companies that finished above the prior day’s high, helping identify groups with strong follow-through.
  • Last Price < Prev. Low (%): Shows the percentage of companies that finished below the prior day’s low, helping identify groups with expanding weakness.

Divergence and Compression Signals​

  • Positive RSI Divergence 14D (%): Shows how many companies in the group have bullish RSI divergence, which can point to improving momentum under the surface.
  • Negative RSI Divergence 14D (%): Shows how many companies in the group have bearish RSI divergence, which can point to weakening momentum.
  • Tight Range (%): Shows the percentage of companies that closed in a compressed range, helping identify groups that may be setting up for expansion.

Strategy Metrics​

  • Top Alpha Setups: Counts the number of high-conviction MarketAlpha strategy setups inside the group, helping you focus on areas with stronger setup density.

Default Sorting Logic​

Results are sorted by Group Rating 1 Day in descending order, so the strongest end-of-day groups appear first.

Practical Use Cases​

  • Review which groups held leadership through both the regular and post-market sessions
  • Spot next-day setup clusters by focusing on groups with strong Top Alpha Setups, divergence signals, or tight-range readings
  • Jump into Ticker Screener to isolate the specific companies driving major group moves
  • Open Multi-Charts to compare end-of-day setups across several strong or weak groups at once
  • Use Group Viewer to inspect group metrics in more detail before narrowing your focus
