breadth-chart-analyst

breadth-chart-analyst is a skill for Claude Code from mphinance/alpha-skills. It costs 107 tokens per session (7,758 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for reading two stock-market breadth charts: charts showing how many stocks are above their 200-day average or are in an uptrend. It uses these charts to judge overall market health and timing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess market breadth, plan strategic positioning, or look for short-term swing-trading signals from supplied charts or CSV data.
Why use it?
It turns broad market participation data into a medium- or short-term market view instead of relying only on individual stocks.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

breadth-chart-analyst scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 8 executable files (scripts/detect_breadth_values.py, scripts/detect_uptrend_ratio.py, scripts/extract_chart_right_edge.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Breadth Chart Analyst

Overview

This skill enables specialized analysis of two complementary market breadth charts that provide strategic (medium to long-term) and tactical (short-term) market perspectives. Analyze breadth chart images to assess market health, identify trading signals based on backtested strategies, and develop positioning recommendations. All thinking and output are conducted exclusively in English.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • User provides S&P 500 Breadth Index (200-Day MA based) chart images for analysis
  • User provides US Stock Market Uptrend Stock Ratio chart images for analysis
  • User requests market breadth assessment or market health evaluation
  • User asks about medium-term strategic positioning based on breadth indicators
  • User needs short-term tactical timing signals for swing trading
  • User wants combined strategic and tactical market outlook
  • User requests breadth analysis WITHOUT providing chart images (CSV data mode)

Do NOT use this skill when:

  • User asks about individual stock analysis (use us-stock-analysis skill instead)
  • User needs sector rotation analysis without breadth charts (use sector-analyst skill instead)
  • User wants news-based market analysis (use market-news-analyst skill instead)

Prerequisites

  • Chart Images Optional: CSV data from public sources is the PRIMARY data source; chart images provide supplementary visual context
  • No API Keys Required: CSV data is fetched from public GitHub Pages; no external API subscriptions needed
  • Language: All analysis and output conducted in English

Output

This skill generates markdown analysis reports saved to the reports/ directory:

  • Chart 1 only: breadth_200ma_analysis_[YYYY-MM-DD].md
  • Chart 2 only: uptrend_ratio_analysis_[YYYY-MM-DD].md
  • Both charts: breadth_combined_analysis_[YYYY-MM-DD].md

Reports include executive summaries, current readings, signal identification, scenario analysis with probabilities, and actionable positioning recommendations for different trader types.
