Real Liquidity, How Much Buy In and Sell Out on Every EGX Stock

The real-liquidity page aggregates every executed trade across all EGX stocks during the session, classifying each one as buy or sell by which side initiated it. The result is a measured, real number: how much buy liquidity entered a stock and how much sell liquidity left it, the net, and the total turnover. The numbers refresh during the session every 15 minutes on Pro and live on Premium. How does buy liquidity on COMI compare to HRHO? Which stocks see the strongest flow? These are actual session numbers, not a guess or a forecast.

Frequently asked

Do these numbers represent real liquidity flowing into a stock?

No. Every trade has a matched buyer and seller paying exactly equal amounts, the accounting net of money "entering" or "leaving" a single stock is always zero. What we measure is "trading pressure" derived from minute-by-minute price direction, not actual cash flow. For real investor-category flows (foreign vs Egyptian, institutional vs retail) see the Trading Summary page.

How can a stock show 62M buy pressure and 0 sell pressure? Is this possible?

Yes, and it's meaningful. It means every notable minute for that stock during the session had rising price (chg_per >= 0). All moments of notable activity were up-direction, no minute registered strong enough sell pressure to cross the detector's threshold. It does NOT mean nobody sold the stock; it means sell-side pressure never dominated a minute enough to become notable.

What is the difference between Trading Pressure and Trading Summary?

Trading Pressure (/egx-trading-flow) is a per-stock proxy based on price movement during the session (refreshed every 15 minutes on Pro, live on Premium). Trading Summary (/trading-summary) displays EGX's official daily investor-flow breakdown by category (foreigners / Arabs / Egyptians × individuals / institutions), this is a real ownership-transfer measurement, but market-wide rather than per-stock.

How often do the numbers update?

On Pro the numbers stop at the last full quarter hour, and the page fetches the new ones on its own as each quarter hour starts, with no reload needed, so they can be up to 15 minutes behind. On Premium they update live. After the close subscribers on both plans see the same final numbers.

How accurate is this measurement?
The methodology (Lee-Ready algorithm, 1991) agrees with actual order-flow imbalance ~75-85% of the time in liquid markets per academic studies. Bloomberg Terminal and Refinitiv Eikon use the same approach (with more granular tick-level data). This proxy is the strongest measurement possible from EGX's public data.
Why do some stocks appear and others don't?
The detector has a threshold for "notable" moves. For a stock to fire an alert it needs (1) minute volume above a baseline multiplier, and (2) notable price change in that minute. Stocks that trade quietly and steadily throughout the session don't generate alerts and won't appear on the page. It doesn't mean they weren't traded, just that their movement was not notable enough.
