Agent skill

uptrend-analyzer

Analyzes market breadth using Monty's Uptrend Ratio Dashboard data to diagnose the current market environment. Generates a 0-100 composite score from 5 components (breadth, sector participation, rotation, momentum, historical context). Use when asking about market breadth, uptrend ratios, or whether the market environment supports equity exposure. No API key required.

Uptrend Analyzer Skill

Purpose

Diagnose market breadth health using Monty's Uptrend Ratio Dashboard, which tracks ~2,800 US stocks across 11 sectors. Generates a 0-100 composite score (higher = healthier) with exposure guidance.

Unlike the Market Top Detector (API-based risk scorer), this skill uses free CSV data to assess "participation breadth" - whether the market's advance is broad or narrow.

When to Use This Skill

English:

  • User asks "Is the market breadth healthy?" or "How broad is the rally?"
  • User wants to assess uptrend ratios across sectors
  • User asks about market participation or breadth conditions
  • User needs exposure guidance based on breadth analysis
  • User references Monty's Uptrend Dashboard or uptrend ratios

Japanese:

  • 「市場のブレドスは健全?」「上昇の裾野は広い?」
  • セクター別のアップトレンド比率を確認したい
  • 相場参加率・ブレドス状況を診断したい
  • ブレドス分析に基づくエクスポージャーガイダンスが欲しい
  • Montyのアップトレンドダッシュボードについて質問

Difference from Market Top Detector

Aspect Uptrend Analyzer Market Top Detector
Score Direction Higher = healthier Higher = riskier
Data Source Free GitHub CSV FMP API (paid)
Focus Breadth participation Top formation risk
API Key Not required Required (FMP)

Execution Workflow

Phase 1: Execute Python Script

Run the analysis script (no API key needed):

bash
python3 skills/uptrend-analyzer/scripts/uptrend_analyzer.py

The script will:

  1. Download CSV data from Monty's GitHub repository
  2. Calculate 5 component scores
  3. Generate composite score and reports

Phase 2: Present Results

Present the generated Markdown report to the user, highlighting:

  • Composite score and zone classification
  • Exposure guidance (Full/Normal/Reduced/Defensive/Preservation)
  • Sector heatmap showing strongest and weakest sectors
  • Key momentum and rotation signals

5-Component Scoring System

# Component Weight Key Signal
1 Market Breadth (Overall) 30% Ratio level + trend direction
2 Sector Participation 25% Uptrend sector count + ratio spread
3 Sector Rotation 15% Cyclical vs Defensive balance
4 Momentum 20% Slope direction + acceleration
5 Historical Context 10% Percentile rank in history

Scoring Zones

Score Zone Exposure Guidance
80-100 Strong Bull Full Exposure (100%)
60-79 Bull Normal Exposure (80-100%)
40-59 Neutral Reduced Exposure (60-80%)
20-39 Cautious Defensive (30-60%)
0-19 Bear Capital Preservation (0-30%)

7-Level Zone Detail

Each scoring zone is further divided into sub-zones for finer-grained assessment:

Score Zone Detail Color
80-100 Strong Bull Green
70-79 Bull-Upper Light Green
60-69 Bull-Lower Light Green
40-59 Neutral Yellow
30-39 Cautious-Upper Orange
20-29 Cautious-Lower Orange
0-19 Bear Red

Warning System

Active warnings trigger exposure penalties that tighten guidance even when the composite score is high:

Warning Condition Penalty
Late Cycle Commodity avg > both Cyclical and Defensive -5
High Spread Max-min sector ratio spread > 40pp -3
Divergence Intra-group std > 8pp, spread > 20pp, or trend dissenters -3

Penalties stack (max -10) + multi-warning discount (+1 when ≥2 active). Applied after composite scoring.

Momentum Smoothing

Slope values are smoothed using EMA(3) (Exponential Moving Average, span=3) before scoring. Acceleration is calculated by comparing the recent 10-point average vs prior 10-point average of smoothed slopes (10v10 window), with fallback to 5v5 when fewer than 20 data points are available.

Historical Confidence Indicator

The Historical Context component includes a confidence assessment based on:

  • Sample size: Number of historical data points available
  • Regime coverage: Proportion of distinct market regimes (bull/bear/neutral) observed
  • Recency: How recent the latest data point is

Confidence levels: High, Medium, Low.


API Requirements

Required: None (uses free GitHub CSV data)

Output Files

  • JSON: uptrend_analysis_YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS.json
  • Markdown: uptrend_analysis_YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS.md
