For information on how Fire works check out the site on SpyGass

SpyGlass is essentially the same as Fire.  Adaptic now markets SpyGlass as Fire.   They both compare stocks within a directory to generate the External Relative Strength Analyzer Value (ERSA) .  So, it works well with a program such as Premium Data which maintains stocks for sectors, subsectors, etc.  More info on Premium data can be found here ...

I use both Spy and Fire to perform broad market calculations only.  I do not agree with how Fire and SpyGlass perform the ERSA calculation because their method of weighting price change when computing ERSA causes erratic behavior in the values.  However, I highly recommend their broad market calculations.   When matched with Norgate's Premium data it is one of the best tools that I have in my trading tool box.

Realistically, how many ETFs can Fire track at the same time? How long to
compile say 10 years of advancing / declining issues and advancing /
declining volume data on the S&P 500 index? Where do you get the
constituent lists for the ETFs and indexes used in the compilations? To
track more than a few indexes and ETFs you can be talking about thousands of
constituents. How does it manage that and still provide usably fast
results?

Thank you.

Best,

Fire is a good program. The breadth indicators can be coded also to
provide many statistical comparisons besides the ones that are hard
coded into the program.

One of Fire's strongest features is the calculation of the external
relative strength. The external relative strength is one of the best
performing ranking filters and high probability trade filters I've
tested.

Well worth the money.

But it's a tool. It doesn't pick winning trades automatically, but it
can improve whatever your constraints are for picking winning trades.
