A bullish bearish tool that helps you see where the momentum is

A bullish bearish tool that helps you see where the momentum is

Mint29-07-2025
If you ever bought into a sector after seeing it all over the news, only to find that the momentum faded a week later, you're not alone. In today's fast-moving markets, sector rotation is constant, and figuring out where the real strength lies is no easy task.
Is the rally broad-based or driven by just a few stocks? Is the sector already overbought, or just gaining steam?
Trendlyne's Bullish Bearish Breadth helps you find these answers. It has been built to provide you with early, reliable signals on bullish/bearish sentiments and identify trends across sectors, industries, and indices early on, often before they become headline news. Source: Trendlyne
Whether you're a swing trader hoping to capitalise on stock momentum or a long-term investor timing your entry, this tool helps you stay one step ahead.
How do you know if a sector's rally is a sustained one?
A rally led by just a few large-cap stocks might look strong on the surface, but it can be fragile. However, when a majority of stocks in a sector are rising together, that tends to be a healthy and sustainable trend. And that's what Bullish Bearish breadth helps you figure out.
Take the Aerospace and Defence industry as an example. This sector gained strong traction from early May to mid-June, frequently appearing in the top 10 bullish sectors on the breadth tool, whether sorted by Trendlyne's Momentum Score or other indicators.
Thanks to this trend, the index tracking defence stocks, Nifty India Defence, is up 47% over the past quarter.
However, in the third week of June, the rally began to lose steam, and it was evident on the breadth tool as the industry dropped out of the top bullish list.
This is the kind of insight that can help you time both your entry and exit, giving you the best chance of riding the wave and reaping maximum upside.
Here's a quick look at how this tool can help you invest:
Track breadth using moving averages: See the percentage of stocks in each sector trading above their 20-day, 50-day and 200-day moving averages — the most common indicators of short and long-term momentum. Source: Trendlyne
Compare using multiple technical indicators: From Trendlyne's Momentum Score, RSI, MFI, to multiple moving averages, you get a complete technical picture.
Monitor daily and weekly sentiment: Check the percentage of stocks in a sector that are up/down today or over the past week, perfect for tracking sentiment.
Choose between Equi-weighted and Market Cap-weighted: If you want to give each stock equal importance, choose Equi-weighted. If you prefer to reflect the real weight of large-cap stocks, choose Market Cap-weighted.
Select any date and view historical data: While the default view displays data for the current day, you can select any past date from the calendar to study historical trends.
Search across sectors and industries: Use the search bar to find any sector or industry instantly. Great for zooming in quickly.
Check index momentum: We've also added a dedicated indices section for traders and investors who want to compare major indices, such as the Nifty 50, Nifty Bank, and others. This helps you identify areas of strength in indices relative to the broader market.
And if you love spreadsheets? You can download all data with a single click using the CSV export button located just above the grid.
No more second-guessing market moves or jumping on weak rallies. With this tool, you get the data-driven confidence to stay ahead of the markets.

Nifty continues downward path, technical indicators show persistent weakness: Sudeep Shah

Indian equity indices ended the week on a weak note, reacting to a combination of global uncertainties and sustained foreign fund outflows. The Nifty 50 slipped below the crucial 24,400 mark, closing at 24,363.30, down 232.85 points or 0.95%, while the Sensex declined 765.47 points or 0.95% to settle at 79,857.79. Concerns over elevated global interest rates, weak global market cues, and consistent profit-booking in heavyweight sectors continued to weigh on investor sentiment throughout the week. The broader trend of the market remains cautiously bearish, but oversold signals from the indicators and the proximity to key support zones suggest a potential bounce may be on the cards. Analyst Sudeep Shah , Vice President and Head of Technical & Derivatives Research, SBI Securities interacted with ET Markets regarding the outlook on Nifty and Bank Nifty along with an index strategy for the upcoming week. Following are the edited excerpts from his chat: What's the current take on Market? The benchmark Nifty index extended its losing streak for the sixth consecutive week, marking its longest stretch of weekly declines since the COVID-19 market crash in 2020. This persistent weakness underscores the prevailing bearish sentiment in the market. What stands out technically is that for the fourth week in a row, the index has formed a bearish candle with a long upper shadow. This formation signals that every attempt at a rally is being met with strong selling pressure, indicating a lack of conviction among bulls and a clear dominance of bears at higher levels. During the week, market sentiment weakened further after U.S. President Donald Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Indian goods, escalating trade tensions over India's Russian oil imports. The mood was further dampened by weak Q1 earnings across key sectors and continued FII selling, which added to the pressure on equities. From a technical standpoint, the Nifty index continues to exhibit pronounced weakness. It is now comfortably trading below its 20-day, 50-day, and 100-day EMAs, all of which are sloping downward — a clear sign of sustained bearish momentum. Adding to the negative outlook, the RSI on the daily chart has entered a super bearish zone, as per RSI range shift principles. Further confirmation comes from the MACD indicator, which remains in bearish territory. The MACD line is quoting below both its signal line and the zero line, reinforcing the downtrend and indicating that selling pressure continues to dominate. Overall, the technical setup paints a cautious picture for the near term, with rallies likely to face resistance and selling emerging at higher levels. Talking about crucial levels, the zone of 24200-24150 will act as important support for the index as it is the confluence of the 200-day EMA level and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of its prior upward rally (21743-25669). If the index slips below the 24150 level, then it is likely to extend its southward journey upto the 23750 level. On the upside, the 100-day EMA zone of 24570-24600 will act as a crucial hurdle for the index. How has the August series played out so far? How has it been historically for the Indian market? Tracking seasonality, over the past 18 years, the August month has often exhibited a mixed trend for Nifty. On 9 occasions, the index has concluded on a positive note with an average gain of 3.68%, while on 9 occasions, it has ended on a negative note with an average loss of 4.45%. The average return for Nifty in the August series has been -0.39%. Over the past 18 years, August has consistently shown an average volatility of 7.30 percent for the Nifty index. Historically, Bank Nifty has also shown a mixed trend in August over the past 18 years. Out of these, it closed positively 9 times, with an average gain of 3.57%, while ending negatively 9 times, with an average loss of 6.30%. The average return for Bank Nifty in the August series has been -1.37%. However, Bank Nifty has demonstrated an average volatility of approximately 10.08 percent for the past 18 years. Are Trump's tariffs likely to further dampen the sentiment? Yes, Trump's tariffs are likely to further dampen market sentiment, especially given the already fragile investor mood. The imposition of an additional 25% tariff on Indian goods adds a layer of geopolitical and trade uncertainty, which could weigh heavily on sectors directly impacted by exports to the U.S. However, it's important to note that the effective date of the tariffs is August 27, and until then, markets may remain volatile as investors closely monitor developments around potential negotiations or diplomatic responses. Any signs of easing tensions or backtracking on the decision could help limit the downside, but for now, the move adds to the list of headwinds facing the market. What is your take on Bank Nifty? What are the key levels to watch? The banking benchmark index Bank Nifty also ended the week on a negative note, reflecting continued weakness in the financial space. On the weekly chart, it formed a bearish candle, indicating persistent selling pressure. Over the last two sessions, the index has been hovering near its 100-day EMA. Going forward, the 100-day EMA zone of 54950–54850 will be a critical support area. A sustained move below 54850 could intensify the downtrend, opening the gates for a decline toward the next support zone of 54000–53900. On the upside, any recovery is likely to face resistance near 55700–55800, which now acts as a key hurdle for the bulls. Any hopes from the FII now? What do the cash segment as well as the FII long-short ratio indicate? Given the current data, hopes from FIIs remain limited in the near term. Month-to-date, FIIs have sold equities worth 14018.87 crore, reflecting a clear risk-off approach amid global uncertainties and domestic headwinds. Additionally, the FII long-short ratio for index futures stands at just 8.28%, the lowest in recent periods, indicating a heavily bearish positioning. This suggests that FIIs are predominantly holding short positions, reinforcing their cautious outlook on Indian equities. However, from a contrarian perspective, such an extremely low long-short ratio could also signal that the market is oversold in the short term, and any positive trigger — such as easing global tensions or favourable domestic cues — could lead to short covering, resulting in a sharp rebound. What's the view on Auto and Pharma stocks? Nifty Auto: The Nifty Auto index has been consolidating in the 24226–22916 range for the past 59 trading sessions, showing resilience amid broader market weakness. It has outperformed frontline indices recently and avoided significant correction during the broader market decline. The ratio chart vs. Nifty is at a 24-week high, highlighting relative strength. Technically, the index is trading above its 100 and 200-day EMAs, indicating a positive undertone. However, momentum indicators remain sideways, suggesting a lack of strong directional bias. Going forward, a break above 24000 could trigger a sharp rally, while the 200-day EMA zone of 23100–23050 will act as crucial support on the downside. Nifty Pharma: The index has slipped below its 200-day EMA for the first time since May 2025, signaling a potential shift in its long-term trend. Adding to the bearish tone, the daily RSI has entered a super bearish zone, as per RSI range shift principles, indicating weakening momentum and a lack of buying interest. Given these developments, the index is likely to extend its downward trajectory over the next few trading sessions. On the downside, the support zone of 21100–21000 will be crucial. A breach below this level could accelerate selling pressure and deepen the correction. How is the IT sector looking right now? The Nifty IT index continues to exhibit a bearish trend, characterized by a consistent pattern of lower highs and lower lows. It remains below key moving averages, indicating sustained weakness in momentum. Additionally, the daily RSI is firmly positioned in the bearish zone, as per the RSI range shift framework. Given these technical signals, the index appears poised to extend its downward trajectory over the coming trading sessions. Are there any stocks to take defensive bets as the indices seem difficult to trade? Technically, Kajaria Ceramics , Affle, and Pidilite Industries are looking good.

Top 6 meme coins crypto whales are accumulating in August 2025, According to market data

Meme coins are now some of the most innovative financial tools available, as their performance outpaces even some traditional altcoins during speculative surges. August 2025 is no different, as on-chain analytics show that crypto whales—investors known for their strategic accumulation of assets—are actively purchasing six particular meme coins. These tokens exhibit robust fundamentals, promising bullish chart setups, explosive community growth, and hint at significant upside potential. Below, we break down the top 6 meme coins currently under accumulation by smart money, including market data, price predictions, and the latest trends. 1. Little Pepe (LILPEPE) – Whale Accumulation Amid Final Presale Stages Presale Stage: Stage 9 Current Price: $0.0018 Next Stage Price: $0.0019 USD Raised: $14.7M / $16.47M Tokens Sold: 10.27B / 11.25B (91.30%) Little Pepe (LILPEPE) is shaping up to be the biggest meme coin launch of 2025. With a Layer-2 blockchain dedicated entirely to meme coins, a zero tax structure, a sniper bot–proof ecosystem, and an exclusive meme coin launchpad, the project has hit all the right notes for both retail and institutional buyers. Whale wallets have been observed accumulating LILPEPE during its current presale stage, with over 91% of tokens already sold. Many are betting on its Layer-2 chain to challenge major players like Base and Arbitrum, especially since it's positioned to be the fastest and cheapest chain available. Backed by anonymous figures with proven meme coin success, and with listings on two top-tier centralized exchanges confirmed at launch, LILPEPE is being viewed by insiders as a generational meme asset. A price explosion post-launch seems almost inevitable, with whispers suggesting a future listing on the world's largest exchange. As whales continue to front-run retail FOMO, LILPEPE tops the list for August 2025 accumulation. 2. Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) – RSI Signals Accumulation Phase PENGU recently showed an impressive rally in July, surging to $0.045 before being rejected at key resistance. After two successful support tests at $0.035, the token appears to be range-bound between $0.038 and $0.039. Analysts note its Bollinger Bands are widening, signaling volatility and a potential breakout. What's especially notable is the token's Relative Strength Index (RSI), which spiked from 30 (oversold) to 80 (overbought) within 15 hours, then cooled to 60—an indication of steady demand and reduced selling pressure. Whales buying the dip at $0.035 have been joined by retail traders anticipating another leg up. The NFT project's strong brand, recent expansion into physical toys and licensing, and the community's unwavering support make PENGU a prime candidate for a second wave of momentum this August. Whales are banking on PENGU breaking out of its range and retesting its previous highs soon. 3. SPX6900 (SPX) – Cup-and-Handle Breakout Ignites Bullish Sentiment SPX6900, a hyper-viral meme coin born from internet culture, has completed a textbook cup-and-handle breakout pattern, with the neckline at $1.74. Fibonacci analysis shows that SPX is currently eyeing a move to $2.2783, with a longer-term projection of $2.88, representing a 44% gain from its recent breakout. Trading consistently above its 50- and 200-day SMAs, and with RSI holding near 70.27, SPX has the technical backing of a true momentum asset. Whales have taken notice, with multiple wallets increasing their exposure above $1.70. SPX's blend of technical strength and meme culture dominance makes it unique. The meme coin isn't just riding hype—it's riding textbook chart formations that institutional traders recognize and trust. That's why it's one of the most heavily accumulated meme coins in early August 2025. 4. Dogecoin (DOGE) – Smart Money Buys the Dip DOGE may be down, but it's not out. After falling 8% from $0.22 to $0.21 on July 31, crypto whales seized the opportunity to load up. Over 310 million DOGE were accumulated by large wallets during the panic sell-off, indicating that institutional investors viewed the dip as a buying opportunity. Trading volume spiked to 1.25 billion DOGE—triple the daily average—and Bit Origin's $40 million DOGE treasury addition as part of a $500M diversification plan only adds to the bullish backdrop. DOGE has strong support at $0.21; price action suggests a potential coil before another big move. Smart money accumulation during high-volume chaos is a classic bullish signal. With renewed interest and corporate adoption growing, DOGE may soon break above the stubborn $0.23 resistance, especially if broader market sentiment improves. 5. Shiba Inu (SHIB) – Momentum Defies Falling Burn Rate Shiba Inu is once again showing how unpredictable meme coins can be. Despite an 82% plunge in burn rate—just days after a 10,000% spike—SHIB's price has risen 2.32%, currently trading around $0.00001180. What's driving this strength? Rising trading volume (up 90%+ to $130 million) and a surge in microtransactions, up 195-200% week-over-week, suggest accumulation is in full swing—likely from smaller investors and bots. Meanwhile, whales are reportedly sitting tight, waiting for a confirmed breakout past $0.000012. The coin's resilience amidst a drop in burns suggests buyers are focused on near-term momentum and broader altcoin rallies, rather than deflation metrics. SHIB's long-term ecosystem upgrades, including Shibarium adoption and AI integrations, could ignite another run later in Q3. 6. Bonk (BONK) – Solana's Meme Darling Eyes Next Leg Up BONK, the 'DOGE of Solana,' is back on traders' radar following sharp volatility and heavy whale activity. Despite a 65% drop from its all-time high, BONK continues to attract attention, particularly from large wallets rotating in and out of positions during recent consolidation. BONK's recent price action—hovering between $0.000020 and $0.000030—has coincided with renewed Solana DeFi growth. Open interest in BONK futures jumped 11.5% in early July, and daily volume exceeded $120 million, indicating intense short-term speculation. While some whales are simply scalping, others are placing long bets on BONK's utility within the Solana ecosystem. Integrated into platforms like Jupiter, Magic Eden, and Solend, BONK is proving it's more than just a meme. With new tokenomics updates and fresh NFT collaborations in the pipeline, BONK accumulation is rising. Conclusion Meme coins are emerging in August 2025 as an essential sector. While new projects are emerging, such as Little Pepe and SPX6900, there are also mainstays such as Dogecoin and Shiba Inu. All these projects are anticipating the next wave of meme coin frenzy. Presumably through institutional investments or aggressive buying, these tokens show an interesting roadmap for accumulation and substantial profits as the bull sector progresses.
