1. When he refers to the overall market, is he referring to Dow, S&P and Nasdaq?
Hi fole, welcome to the site,
1. In the Global Trend Alert newsletter that he does for institutional clients he always talks about the SPX, DOW, COMP, and the RUT when talking about the overall market. And always considers them together along with his proprietary Stages Surveys (percentage of stocks in Stages 1 & 2) when determining the overall market Stage.
A good way to understand the basics of the method is to hear from Weinstein himself, as he's done a number of 15-20 minute interviews in the last few years on the Financial Sense Newshour. Here's the link to the archive of them:

You can list the sectors in prorealtime, but you have to search for the tickers to make up your own list, and save the list.
A better alternative is available on stockcharts here: http://stockcharts.com/freecharts/indust...ECTOR_SPDR and lists the US Sub Sectors by major Sector. You can click on the names of the sectors to go through to see what stocks are in each sector and you can view the charts using the icons in the first column.
I hope that helps.
