The term “BIST Market Change” typically refers to the change in the overall performance of the Borsa İstanbul (BIST) stock market index or a specific index such as the BIST 100 or BIST 30. It represents the difference in the index value between two distinct points in time, usually measured on a daily basis.

Here’s how BIST Market Change is typically calculated:

Market Change= Current Index Value − Previous Index Value / Previous Index Value ×100

• Current Index Value: The most recent value of the BIST index, typically at the end of the trading day.
• Previous Index Value: The value of the BIST index at the end of the previous trading day.

The result of this calculation is expressed as a percentage, representing the percentage change in the index value from the previous trading day. A positive percentage indicates that the index has increased in value, while a negative percentage indicates a decrease.
