Here is the McClellan Oscillator and Summation Index (non-adjusted). Watch for McClellan crossing zero and/or the slope of the McClellan Summation Index. A good description is on the following link:

Here is one more way to look at it. I've added a moving average to the Summation and the difference between the two. I used spy to represent the SP500. Since this is a market breadth indicator the scan will not sort out individual stocks but can used as momentum indicator to the market. I will usually run this prior my other scans to get a feel for which the direction the market may go the following day.

McClellan Oscillator
What Does It Mean?
What Does McClellan Oscillator Mean?
A market breadth indicator that is based on the difference between the number of advancing and declining issues on the NYSE. It is primarily used for short and intermediate term trading.

To calculate subtract a 39 day EMA (of advancing issues - declining issues) from a 19 day EMA (of advancing issues - declining issues).

Simplified, it looks as follows: (19 Day EMA of Advances - Declines) - (39 Day EMA of Advances - Declines)
Investopedia Says
Investopedia explains McClellan Oscillator
Usually, a small number of stocks making large gains characterizes a weakening bull market. This gives the perception that the overall market is healthy, but in reality it isn't, as rising prices are being driven by a small number of stocks. Conversely, when a bear market is still declining, but a smaller amount of stocks are declining, an end to the bear market may be near.
