    General market analysis , I am impressed, ftse100 and ftse250 shown. The chart of number of shares above the 50 week moving average, reminds me of a point and figure book I read, which used p&f charts to display that information. There were some other breadth variation charts like for number of new highs/lows, and bullish/bearish p&f signals. 

    If I might suggest including some smaller indexes like AIM, and or fledgling. I am aware though of the wider spreads in smaller shares, so for the AIM index perhaps the top 50/100, to remove the wider spreads ?

    I appreciate your insight because I don't trade the LSE.  Do you know if there are ETFs which track either of those indices (AIM or Fledgling)?  I'm having trouble finding any.  I don't have access to the raw index data, so I put tracking ETFs on the general market analysis page.

    Index wise, there is the AXX, index all share AIM, that I found on the ii.co.uk/indices.  website.
    ETF, Ishares MSCI UK Small cap UCITS ETF, however not 100% AIM, as holds small-scale in other exchanges. Truth be told the ETF, would simply represent smallcaps, plural, but then at the moment your breadth indexes stop at the ftse100 and ftse250.
