ACMI Crypto Market Breadth Oscillator chart combines the ACMI Index with a custom-built Breadth Oscillator based on Relative Strength (RS). It gives an instant read on market participation — telling you whether a majority of top cryptos are rising together, or if leadership is narrowing.
You can think of it as a Relative Strength-based version of RSI, but applied to the entire market instead of a single coin.
- It shows the percentage of coins in the ACMI index that are currently underperforming — i.e., having RS < 1.
- This acts as a sentiment gauge — the higher the value, the more coins are lagging behind the index
The upper pane shows the ACMI index (blue) and the lower pane shows the % of index coins having RS < 1 (orange). Reference zones at 80 and 30 can help detect overbought and oversold signals.
How to interpret it?
- Dips below 30% often align with strong uptrends — only a few coins are weak.
- Spikes above 80% may signal capitulation or exhaustion.
