ETF Flow Strength

Daily ETF net flow vs 90-day average — measures whether institutional buying is significantly elevated.

How ETF Flow Strength is calculated

>3× average = strong inflow signal; <−3× = strong outflow signal.

How to read it

  • ETF metrics reflect spot-fund creations, redemptions and holdings; data updates per trading day with delays and holiday gaps.
  • Consecutive inflows or outflows show institutional direction, but their impact depends on price and overall liquidity.

Limitations and common misreads

  • Historical thresholds come from a limited sample; future cycles can differ.
  • Data providers can define the metric differently; cite the data date when quoting it.
  • A single indicator is not investment advice and does not guarantee price direction.
