I am trying to get data for TRIN and advancing/decliningissues through Yahoo finance. I have found the symbol for TRIN (^TRIN) but does anyone know the symbols for advancing/declining issues (If they are even available)?

Thanks

The Market Sentiment provider is depreciated. Effective 02/20/2020 you can get the most frequently used market sentiment data using our Wealth-Data provider - the advancing, declining and unchanged issues for AMEX, NASDAQ and NYSE! Here are the symbols:

$AMEX_ADVN (AMEX Advancing Issues)
$AMEX_DECLN (AMEX Declining Issues)
$AMEX_UNCHN (AMEX Unchanged Issues)
$NASDAQ_ADVN (NASDAQ Advancing Issues)
$NASDAQ_DECLN (NASDAQ Declining Issues)
$NASDAQ_UNCHN (NASDAQ Unchanged Issues)
$NYSE_ADVN (NYSE Advancing Issues)
$NYSE_DECLN (NYSE Declining Issues)
$NYSE_UNCHN (NYSE Unchanged Issues)

You can create a W-D DataSet by copying/pasting the symbols or by simply choosing them from "Market Sentiment" Classification Group in the New DataSet Wizard > Wealth-Data.
