This indicator provides a comprehensive view of the rate of change and related metrics for multiple trading pairs, assisting traders in identifying potential trends and making informed trading decisions.
Relative Strength Comparison
Multi Period Relative StrengthMulti Period Relative Strength Indicator
This indicator is meticulously designed around the fundamental concept of relative strength, providing a powerful tool to assess an instrument's performance against peers or a benchmark index within the same asset class. Tailored for short-term swing trend analysis, it equips traders with the insights needed to make informed decisions based on prevailing relative strength dynamics.

Key Features:
Dual Period Analysis:
The indicator conducts a dual-period analysis, scrutinizing relative strength across two distinct period—a fast period and a slow period. This approach allows for a comprehensive evaluation of relative strength dynamics.
Visualization:
Slow RS is visually depicted as a green cloud above the zero line showing relative strength or a red cloud below it showing relative weakness. This visual representation aids in assessing the underlying instrument's performance against its peer over the past 3 months (slow period).
Fast RS is visually presented as green bars above the zero line showing relative strength or red bars below it showing weakness. This visual cue helps evaluate the performance of the underlying instrument against its peer over the last week (fast period).
Positive Relative Strength:
When both the fast and slow periods exhibit positive values, it signifies sustained strength in the current instrument over both the past 3 months and the last week.
Divergence Evaluation:
A positive fast period coupled with a negative slow period signals a robust relative strength trend over the past 3 months, but with a recent decline in the last week. Traders may consider adjusting positions, such as reducing or exiting, in response to this divergence.
Strength Building Scenario:
Conversely, a negative fast period paired with a positive slow period indicates relative weakness over the past 3 months, coupled with an increasing trend in the last week. This scenario may present an opportunity to gradually build positions, particularly if the 3-month relative strength turns positive.
Strategic Decision Points:
Traders can leverage these signals strategically to manage portfolios, adjusting positions based on the nuanced interplay between short-term and longer-term relative strength trends.
Risk Mitigation Strategies:
By interpreting the indicator signals, traders can implement effective risk mitigation strategies, including position downsizing, exits, gradual position building, or short covering. These actions align with the prevailing relative strength dynamics.
In summary, the Multi Period Relative Strength Indicator offers a nuanced and actionable perspective on an instrument's relative strength. By examining both short-term and 3-month trends, traders can make well-informed decisions to optimize their trading strategies and portfolio management.
Comparative Relative Strength AutoselectComparative Relative Strength (CRS) is a relative momentum indicator, used to compare a security against an index, or against another security. The comparison is used to show the relative performance to each other.
This script is a Quality of Life improvement, which attempts to match the base symbol to its relevant index on the local stock exchange. Thus automagically selecting the best and most relevant comparative symbol.
Features:
*optional comparative symbol override, in case your favourite index is not included in this script, or you want to force it to function as as a traditional cRS script without the autoselect feature.
* optional moving average crossover line
* optional absolute momentum calculation, calculating the excess return of the basesymbol and comparativesymbol against its own simple moving average.
Sector relative strength and correlation by KaschkoThis script provides a quick overview of the relative strength and correlation of the symbols in a sector by showing a line chart of the close prices on a percent scale with all symbols starting at zero at the left side of the chart. It allows a great deal of flexibility in the configuration of the sectors and symbols in it. The standard preset sectors cover the most important futures markets and their symbols.
However, up to ten sectors with up to ten symbols each can be freely configured. Each sector is defined by a single line that has the following format:
Sector name:Symbol suffix:List of comma separated symbols
For example, the first predefined sector is defined as follows.
Energies:1!:CL,HO,NG,RB
1. The name of the sector is "Energies"
2. The suffix is "1!", i.e., to each symbol in the list "1!" is appended to get the continous future for the given symbol root. When using stock, forex or other symbols, simply leave the suffix empty.
3. The list of comma separated symbols is "CL,HO,NG,RB", i.e. crude oil, heating oil, natural gas and gasoline. As the suffix is "1!", the actual symbols whose prices are shown are "CL1!","HO1!","NG1!" and "RB1!"
You can choose to use settlement-as-close and back-adjusted contracts. The sector can also be determined automatically ("Auto-select"). In this case, it is determined to which sector the symbol currently displayed in the main chart belongs and the script displays it in the context of the other symbols in the sector.
By selecting a suitable chart time frame and time range, you can quickly determine which symbols in the sector are stronger or weaker and which are more or less strongly correlated.
The following symbols are best suited for a quick trial, as the sectors are preset for these:
CL1!,ES1!,6A1!,6B1!,6c1!,6E1!,6J1!,6M1!,6N1!,6S1!,GC1!,GF1!,HE1!,HG1!,HO1!,LBR1!,LE1!,NG1!,NQ1!,PA1!,PL1!,RB1!,SI1!,YM1!,ZB1!,ZC1!,ZF1!,ZL1!,ZM1!,ZN1!,ZO1!,ZR1!,ZS1!,ZT1!,ZW1!,CC1!,CT1!,DX1!,KC1!,OJ1!,SB1!,RTY1!
You can also use the script to compare any symbols (e.g. different shares) with each other. Preferably use the "Custom" sector for this.
RedK Relative Strength Ribbon: RS Ribbon and RS ChartsRedK Relative Strength Ribbon (RedK RS_Ribbon) is TA tool that plots the Relative Strength of the current chart symbol against another symbol, or an index of choice. It enables us to see when a stock is gaining strength (or weakness) relative to (an index that represents) the market, and when it hits new highs or lows of that relative strength, which may lead to better trading decisions.
I searched TV for existing RS indicators but didn't find what I really wanted, so I put this together and added some additional features for my own use. It started as a simple RS line with new x-weeks Hi/Lo markers, then evolved into what you see here in v1.0 with the ability to plot a full RS chart in regular or HA candle types. Hope this will be useful to some other growth traders here on TV.
What is Relative Strength (RS)
------------------------------------
(RS is a comprehensive concept in TA, below is a quick summary - please research further if it's not already a familiar topic)
Relative Strength (RS) is a technical concept / indicator used mainly by growth / swing / momentum traders to compare the performance of one security or asset against another. RS measures the price performance of a specific security relative to a benchmark, such as an index or another asset. It's not to be confused with the famous Relative Strength Index (RSI) technical indicator
For example, In the context of comparing a stock's relative strength to the SPY (S&P 500) index, the relative strength calculation involves dividing the stock's price or price-related value (e.g., close price) by the corresponding value of the SPY index. The resulting ratio (and its trend over time) indicates the relative performance of the stock compared to the index.
Traders and investors use relative strength analysis to identify securities that have been showing relative strength or weakness compared to a benchmark, which can help in making investment decisions or identifying the "market leaders" and potential trading opportunities.
There are so many books and documentation about the RS concept and its importance to identify market leaders, especially when recovering from a bear market - if you're interested in the concept, please search more about it and review some of that literature. There's also a more detailed definition of Relative Strength in this article on Invstopedia
RedK RS_Ribbon features and options
---------------------------------------------------
The indicator settings provide many options and features - see the settings box below
- Change / choose base symbol
The default is to use SPY as the base symbol - so we're comparing the chart's symbol to a proxy of the S&P 500 - Some traders may prefer to use the QQQ - or other index or ETF that acts as a proxy for the industry / sector / market they are trading
- RS Calculation / RS line
we use the simple form of the RS calculation,
RS = closing price of current chart symbol / closing price of the base symbol (default is SPY) * 100
some RS documentation will use the Rate of Change (RoC) - but that's not what we're using here.
- The RS_Ribbon
* Once the RS line is plotted, it made sense to add couple of moving averages to it, to make it easier to observe the trend of the RS and the changes in that trend as you can see in the sample chart on top.
* The RS_Ribbon is made up of a fast and slow moving averages and will change color (green / red) based on detected trend RS direction - the 2 MA types and lengths can be changed until you get the setup that provides the best view for you of the RS trend over time. My preferred settings are used as defaults here.
- Identifying New (x)Week Hi/Lo RS Values
* Most traders would be interested when the calculated RS hits a new 52-week high or low value.
* There are cases where we may want to see when a new RS Hi/Lo has been hit for a different period - for example, a quarter (13 weeks)
* the number of weeks can be changed as well as adjusting the numbers of trading days per week (if needed for certain symbols/exchanges)
- Working with Different Timeframes
* Now these "markers" will only be available in the daily and weekly timeframes and there is a good reason for that, it's not the fact that i'm lazy :) and that enabling this in timeframes lower than 1D would have been some heavy lifting, but the reality is that with RS, we're really interested if a "day's close" hits a new RS high or low value against the moving window of x weeks (and the weeks close also) - if you think of this more, at lower TF, RS can hit a lower value that never end up registering on the daily closing and that causes a lot of visual confusion. So i took the "cleaner way out" of that issue.
* note that you can choose a different timeframe for the RS_Ribbon than the chart - if you do, please make sure the chart is at a lower timeframe than the indicator's - (and in that case remember to hide the candles because they won't make much sense)
i wanted to leverage TV's built-in multi-Timeframe (MTF) support with the caveat that using the indicator at lower TF with a chart at a higher TF (example chart at 1Wk and indicator at 1D) will show inaccurate results. If this sounds confusing, keep the indicator TF same as the chart.
the example here shows a 2-Hr chart against 1D RS_Ribbon
- Using RS Charts and RS Candles
* Beside the ability to plot the RS "closing" value with the RS line, the indicator provides the ability to show a "full" RS Chart with candles that represent the relative values of open, high, low. and close against the base symbol.
* the RS Charts can be used for regular chart analysis, for example, we can identify common chart patterns like Cup & Handle, VCP, Head & Shoulder..etc using these charts .. which can provide some edge over the price charts
* for the Heikin Ashi fans, I added the ability to choose classic or HA candles for the chart. note you have to enable the option to show the RS candles first before you choose the option to switch to HA.
The chart below shows a side-by-side comparison on the 2 RS chart types
Closing remarks
-----------------------
* RS is a good way to identify market/sector leaders (who will usually recover from a bear market before others) - and enable us to see the strength that comes from the broader makrket versus the one that comes from the stock's own performance and identify good trading opportunities
* I'll continue to update this work and alerts will come in next version - but wanted to check initial reaction and value
* as usual, if you decide to use this in your chart analysis, it's necessary to combine with other momentum, trend, ...etc indicators and do not make trading decision only based on the signales from a single indicator
Market Smith IndicatorsMarket Smith has a collection of tools that are useful for identifying stocks. On their charts they have a 21/50/200 day moving averages, high and low pivot points, a relative strength line, and a relative strength rating. This script contains indicators for the following:
21/50/200 Day Moving Averages
High and Low pivot points
A Relative Strength line
A Relative Strength rating
21/50/200 Day Moving Averages
The 21/50/200 Day moving averages are simple moving averages. They are visible in any chart increment but to use them properly you need to set you charts to be by day. Labels will appear on the right of the lines to show that they are representative of 21/50/200 day moving averages.
High and Low pivot points
The High and Low pivot points are green for high pivot points and red for low points. They are show in the Market Smith style with the numbers simply above the pivot points.
Relative Strength line
The Relative Strength line is a line that shows the strength of the stock compared to the S&P 500. In this case we utilize the SPX ticker to compare the stock to. This line is almost identical to the Market Smith tool and is an excellent tool to determine how a stock is doing compared to the market. When movements in the stock and shown with sideways trending of the RS line that means that the stock is following the market. When a stock is outperforming the market the RS line will follow.
Relative Strength rating
Thank you to ©Fred6724 for the RS Rating inspiration. They wrote excellent open source code for a RS Rating comparable to Market Smith. As the RS Rating in Market Smith is not open source it is difficult to know exactly how it is being calculated. After simplifying Fred's code and building upon a few ideas I had I compared the RS Rating to multiple Market Smith Ratings. The rating is close but often off by multiple points. If there is anyone who has a better idea on how to get this rating or how to improve on the code please send me a PM or fork this project. This rating is a good indicator to see how a certain stock compares to other stocks in the market. In Market Smith they are able to utilize their database to compare it to all other stocks. Since we do not have access to the same tools we are only able to compare it to the percentage of stocks above the 200, 150, 100, 50, and 20 day moving average.
Using these tools together are a small fraction what make people like Bill O'neill and Jim Roppel so successful. I plan on updating the RS Rating as I continue to work on this project so if there is anyone who has ideas then please send me a PM. Ultimately the goal of this project is to have a solution that is identical to Market Smith.

Trading Zones based on RS / Volume / PullbackThis is an Indicator which identifies different Trading Zones on the chart.
This should be Primarily used for Long Trades.
Trading Zones: and the Reasoning behind them
Long Zone -> One can do a Potential Entry (Buy) when this Zone is identified, but one could also wait for 'Entry Zone' (explained next) for a better Risk/Reward Trade.
Long Zones are identified with the help of Relative Strength and by an Intermediate Top in price.
Entry Zone -> This can be a better Risk/Reward zone to enter positions within the Long Zone.
Entry Zone is identified by a Pullback in Price & Volume contraction after the Long Zone is activated
Warning Zone -> One needs to be careful in this zone, no need to panic, Script will now try to find an Exit when Price Retraces towards Highs.
Warning Zone identifies weakness in the Price using Relative Strength of the current Stock (w.r.t. the Reference Symbol configured) and the severity of Pullback in Price.
Exit Zone -> are found only after transitioning to Warning Zone, this is a Zone which helps in minimising losses after a trade has gone into losses. Exit Zone is identified by making sure a local peak forms in Warning Zone. However, there are instances when Exit Zone detection can get prolonged when a local price peak is not formed soon enough. So one needs to be careful and use other strategies for exit.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is different in this Script:
The Script uses Relative Strength in combination with Pullback in Price from Highs in a Novel way.
Over-trading is avoided by ignoring Sideways price movements, using Relative Strength.
Only Trending Upward movement is detected and traded.
How to use this Indicator:
Use these 'Trading Zones' only as a reference so it can minimise your time in screening stocks.
Preferred Settings for using the Indicator:
Stick to 1-Day candles
Keep Relative Symbol as "Nifty" for Indian Stocks.
For US stocks, we can use "SPX" as the Relative Symbol.

NOMMO AUTOMATE🖖 Hi all!
Check out my NOMMO AUTOMATE indicator for trend detection, trend change points, hedging opposite trend impulses.
What the script do:
☑️ Detecting local and global trends and trend change points, detecting opposite to current trend impulses.
How the script do it:
☑️ The indicator compares RSI indicators on chosen by user Trend TF1 and Trend TF2 and marks trend change points.
☑️ The indicator compares different length HMA indicators on chosen by user Hedge TF to detect opposite to current trend impulses.
How to use it:
☑️ There are 4 states in the indicator: Long, Short, Flat, Hedge, marked by corresponding (adjustable) color zones, where Long = uptrend, Short = downtrend, Flat = sideways movement, Hedge = possible impulse in the opposite trend direction.
☑️ Select Trend TF1 and Trend TF2 and RSI length to determine the trend, depending on how a big picture you want to see, the more major TF you choose the more global picture of the trend change you get.
☑️ Select Hedge TF to determine the possible impulses opposite to the current trend (does not work in detected Flat movement).
☑️ For each trading pair you need to try individual settings, the default settings I use for BTC swing trading, to reduce the noise level of hedging put Hedge TF the same as the smaller Trend TF.
☑️ Try different settings, experiment and you will find the most suitable settings for your trading pair.
How magic works:
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 > 50 + RSI Trend TF2 > 50 = Long
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 > 50 + RSI Trend TF2 < 50 = Flat
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 < 50 + RSI Trend TF2 > 50 = Flat
☑️ RSI Trend TF1 < 50 + RSI Trend TF2 < 50 = Short
☑️ Long + Hedge TF (HMA 10 < HMA 70 < HMA 200) = Hedge
☑️ Short + Hedge TF (HMA 10 > HMA 70 > HMA 200) = Hedge
For example:
☑️ Try Trend TF1 = 1D, Trend TF2 = 1D and Hedge TF = 1D, with RSI period = 21, to check mid-term trend on BTCUSD
May the trade force be with you.
Market Relative Candle Ratio ComparatorIntroducing the Market Relative Candle Ratio Comparator, a visually captivating script that eases the way you compare two financial assets, such as cryptocurrencies and market indices. Leveraging a distinctive calculation method based on percentage changes and their averages, this tool presents a crystal-clear view of how your chosen assets perform in relation to each other, both for individual candles and over a range of previous candles.
Tailoring the script to your preferences is a walk in the park, as it allows you to easily adjust input symbols, moving average lengths, and other parameters to match your analytical approach. The visually arresting column chart it creates employs vivid red and green colors to underscore the differences between the two assets on each candle. Simultaneously, the lower-opacity columns depict the accumulated differences over a specified lookback period. This vibrant blend of colors and opacities results in a dynamic visual experience, enabling you to better grasp market trends relative to each other.
The reverse bool input is a handy feature that lets you invert the effect of the input symbol (DXY by default) in the comparison. When you set the reverse input to true, the script multiplies the calculated DXY percentage change by -1, effectively reversing the comparison. This is particularly useful when examining assets with an inverse relationship or when you'd like to analyze the input symbol's impact in the opposite direction.
For instance, if the input symbol represents a market index that generally moves in the opposite direction of the selected cryptocurrency, enabling the reverse input will help you better visualize and understand the relationship between the two assets by inverting the input symbol's effect on the comparison.
In the accompanying chart, you can observe the comparison of Bitcoin's movement relative to the Dollar, Gold, Bonds, and the S&P 500. The indicator reveals that in the last day, Bitcoin outperformed Bonds, Gold, and the Dollar but not the S&P 500!

MARS - Moving Average Relative StrengthThe original idea from this script is from the script " Percentage Relative Strength " by dman103 . The original script compared a symbol to an index by their everyday percentage change. The symbol percentage was subtracted from percentage change of the index, & the results were then smoothed by moving averages.
Instead of daily percentage changes, this script directly calculates relative strength via a moving average. We call this simpler approach as MARS (Moving Average Relative Strength) .
MARS compares a symbol to the index by making use of the price's distance from a moving average. By default, we compare the distance from the 50-day simple moving average of the stock vs that of the index. Both the type & the length of the moving average is customisable.
Background color indicates the index being above or below its moving average.
Blue background: index is above its moving average
Pink background: index is below its moving average
The histogram indicates whether the stock is under-performing or out-performing the index.
Up-bars : stock is out-performing the index i.e. between the stock & the index, the difference between the distance to/from the 50-day moving average is a positive value.
Down-bars : stock is under-performing the index i.e. between the stock & the index, the difference between the distance to/from the 50-day moving average is a negative value.
The color of the histogram indicates the type of out-performance or under-performance. There can be a total of 6 such colors:
Relative out-performance : both index & stock are bearish, but stock is less bearish. The script prints light green up-bars on a pink background.
Gross out-performance : both index & stock are bullish, but stock is more bullish. The script prints green up-bars on a blue background.
Absolute out-performance : index is bearish, but stock is bullish! The script prints blue up-bars on a pink background.
Relative under-performance : both index & stock are bullish, but stock is less bullish. The script prints light red bars on a blue background.
Gross under-performance : both index & stock are bearish, but stock is more bearish. The script prints dark red bars on a pink background.
Absolute under-performance : index is bullish, but stock is bearish! The script prints black down-bars on a blue background.
Additional customisation options:
Paint bars option changes the bar colors to mirror the histogram colors.
Easy colors option just changes the histogram colors to either blue or pink, indicating out-performance or under-performance, respectively. This is when the trader does not wish to demarcate between the above-mentioned 6 conditions.
Relative Performance Comparison among different sectorsThis script shows how money is moving among different sectors using relative-strength of the corresponding sector-specific largest ETFs against MSCI World. Trend and current value of Relative-strength can be used to determine the sector in which you should make your investment at this point, considering the movement in markets.
Currency Strength [LuxAlgo]The Currency Strength indicator displays the historical relative strength of 5 user selected currencies over a user selected period of time. Users can also display relative strength of currencies as a scatter plot, further informing on the evolution of currency strength.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display: Determines the type of data displayed by the indicator. By default, the trailing relative strength of currencies is displayed, with the other option displaying the scatter plot.
Timeframe: Timeframe period used to calculate currency relative strength.
🔹 Meter
Show Strength Meter: Displays the currency strength meter on the indicator panel.
Strength Meter Resolution: Resolution of the currency strength meter, higher resolutions allow to observe smaller difference in strength.
Location: Location of the currency strength meter on the indicator pane.
Size: Size of the currency strength meter.
🔹 Relative Strength Scatter Graph
Scatter Graph Resolution: Horizontal and vertical width of the scatter plot (in bars). Higher values allow a more precise position on the X axis.
🔶 USAGE
Measuring the relative strength of a currency allows users to assess the relative performance of a currency against a basket of other currencies.
The term "strength" can convey various interpretations depending on the indicator. Here "strength" is interpreted as an indicator of performance, with stronger currencies having greater performances over the selected period (positive changes of higher magnitude).
The Currency Strength indicator allows users to analyze the relative strength of currencies over a user selected period - the returned results will reset periodically and will accumulate afterward.
The above chart shows the hourly relative strength of various currencies on the 1min TF.
🔹 Scatter Graph
The scatter graph displays the relative strength of a currency over its value during the previous period. This not only allows users to see if a currency is strong... but also if it's getting stronger compared to the previous period.
In order to quickly interpret results, the graph is divided into four areas. A currency (displayed as a point) being in a specific area returns the following information:
Strong(Green): Currency has a positive relative strength (bullish) and is greater than its value over the previous period.
Improving (Yellow): Currency has a negative relative strength (bearish) and is greater than its value over the previous period.
Weakening (Aqua): Currency has a positive relative strength (bullish) and is lower than its value over the previous period.
Weak (Red): Currency has a negative relative strength (bearish) and is lower than its value over the previous period.
🔶 DETAILS
There is a wide variety of methods for the calculation of a currency's relative strength. The primary focus of the indicator is on the meter as well as the relative strength scatter graph. The currency strength calculation can be considered more basic.
Given two currencies, B (base) and Q (quote), the proposed indicator calculation process is as follows:
Exchange rate BQ(t) over time t is obtained, a rising value of BQ(t) means that a unit of B is now worth a higher amount of Q , highlighting strength of B over Q on that precise variation.
The individual relative strength over time IRS(t) is obtained as the percentage relatively close to the open difference of BQ(t) , that is:
IRS(t) = / open(t) * 100
Normalizing the close to open difference allows for the various currencies' relative strengths to approximately share the same scale.
The above operation is performed n times over a space of n currencies O( n ) . The obtained individual relative strengths for one specific currency are then added together, forming the final composite relative strength ( CRS ) of that currency:
CRS (t) = IRS (t) + IRS (t) + ... + IRS (t)
The cumulative sum of CRS(t) over the user selected period is then obtained.
Stock Relative Strength Power IndexAs always, this is not financial advice and use at your own risk. Trading is risky and can cost you significant sums of money if you are not careful. Make sure you always have a proper entry and exit plan that includes defining your risk before you enter a trade.
This idea recently came out of some discussions I stumbled across in a trading group I am a part of regarding Relative Strength and Relative Weakness (shortened to RS and RW from here on out). The whole mechanism behind this trading system is to filter out underperforming securities relative to the current market direction to be in only the strongest or weakest stocks when the market is currently experiencing a bullish or bearish cycle. The idea behind this is there is no point in parking your money into a stock that is treading water or even going down if the market is making strong moves upwards. At that point, you are at worst losing money, and at best trading equal to the index/ETF, in which case the argument is why are you not just trading the index/ETF instead? RS or RW will filter out these sector laggards and allow you to position yourself into strong (or the strongest) stocks at any given time to help improve portfolio performance. Further, not only does it protect your position should the market shift against you briefly, it also often sees exceptional performance in the same cycle. For example, if $SPY makes a 5% move over the course of a month, a stock with RS/RW may make a 10% move, or more, allowing you to see increased profit potential.
RS/RW is based on the idea of performance, that is the raw percent change of a security over a given time period relative to a benchmark. This benchmark is often the S&P500 (ES/SPX/SPY and their derivatives). I have to stress that this is not beta, which measures the volatility of a stock over a given period (i.e. if $SPY moves $1, $NVDA will often move $1.74). This is a measurement of the market (i.e. $SPY) has moved 1% over the course of a day, $NVDA has moved 8% over the course of the day. This is very often used as a signal of institutional interest as apart from some very unique moments, retail traders cannot and will not provide enough market pressure to move a market outside of a stock's normal trading range, nor will they outperform the sector or market as a whole consistently over time without some big money to make them move. The problem with running strict performance analysis (i.e. % change from period T ago to period T + n at present) is that while it gives us a baseline of how much the stock has moved, it doesn't overall mean much. For instance, if a $100 stock has moved 5% today, but has been experiencing a period of increased volatility and it's Average True Range (ATR) (the amount a stock will move over X number of periods, on average) is $7, performance seems impressive but is actually generally fairly weak to what the stock has been doing recently. Conversely, if we take a second stock, this time worth $20, and it too has moved 5% in one day but has an ATR of only $0.25, that stock has made an exceptional move and we want to be part of that.
Here, I have created an indicator called the Stock Relative Strength Power Index. This takes the stock's rate of change (ROC) (the % move it has made over X number of periods), the stock's normalized ATR (the ATR represented as a percentage instead of a raw value), and compares these to one another to get the "Power Rating": a representation of the true strength of a stock over X number of periods. The indicator does two things. First, the raw ROC is divided by the stock's normalized ATR to assess whether the stock is moving outside of its normal range of variation or not. Second, since we are interested in trading only stocks with exceptional RS/RW to the market, I have also applied this same calculation to the S&P500 ($SPY) and the various SPDR sector indexes. These comparisons allow for a rapid and accurate assessment of the true strength of a stock at any given time on any given time frame. To cycle back above to our examples, the $100 stock has a Power Rating of only 0.71 (i.e. it is trading less than its current average), while our $20 stock has a Power Rating of 5. If we then compare these to both the market as a whole and the sector that the stock is a part of, we get a much clearer indication of the true buying or selling pressure imposed on the stock at any given time.
Use:
The indicator has 3 lines. The blue line is the security of interest, the red line is the market baseline (i.e. the sector ETF $SPY), and the white line is the sector index. I have given an example above on the semiconductor/tech stock $NVDA on a 30min timeframe. You can see that since the start of 2023, $NVDA has generally been strong to the market and its own sector since the blue line is greater than both the red and white lines over many days. This would have provided some nice day trading opportunities, or even some nice short term swing trades. The values themselves are generally meaningless outside of either the 1 or -1 value lines. All that matters is that the current ticker is surpassing both the market and the sector while being > 1.0 for a long trade or less than -1.0 for a short trade. However, I must stress this indicator gives no trade signals on its own, it is purely a confirmation indicator. An example of a trade would be if you had a trade signal given by either an indicator or by price action suggesting to buy some $NVDA for a trade to the upside, the Power Rating indicator would confirm this by showing if $NVDA was actually showing true strength by being both greater than 1 (the cutoff for it surpassing its ATR) and being above both the red and white lines. Further, you can see $NVDA has been stronger than the market when using the comparison function as well, but the has fluxed in and out of strength intraday when using the actual indicator vs. the static performance ratio chart (plotted as line graphs on the chart).
I have made it possible to change the colour of the plots and the line levels. The adjustment of the line levels gives the trader the flexibility to change their target breakout level (i.e. only trading stocks that have a Power Rating > 2, for example, meaning they are trading at least 2X their normal trading range). The third security comparison is flexible and can be used to compare to the sector ETF (initial intention) or it can be used to compare to other tickers within the same sector, for example. The trader should select the appropriate ETF for the given security of interest to avoid false confirmation if they want to use an ETF as their third input. The proper sector should be readily available on most online websites and accessible in a matter of seconds meaning that the delay is minimal, at worst. If a trader wishes to add additional functionality, such as a crypto trader using BTCUSD as the benchmark instead of $SPY, I encourage them to copy and paste this script and modify as needed since I have made this open source.
This indicator works on all timeframes. The lookback period can be changed, so a day trader who may use a 5min chart (and use a period of 12 to get the hourly Power Rating) will find this equally useful as someone who may be a core trader who wants to look at the performance over the course of years and may use a 60 period on a monthly chart.
Happy trading and I hope this helps!
Relative Performance Dashboard v. 2This is a smaller and cleaner version of my previous Relative Performance table. It looks at the rate of change over 1M, 3M, 6M, 1YR & YTD and displays those for the current chart's ticker vs. an index/ticker of your choosing (SPX is default). I also have some fields for the ADR of the displayed chart, how far away the displayed chart is from 52-week highs, and a single number that compares the average relative strength of the displayed chart vs. the index. The way this average calculates is customizable by the user.
I like using this table next to an Earnings/Sales/Volume table that already exists by another user in the same pane and I designed this one so it can look just like that one to give a great view of the both fundamental and technical strength of your ticker in the same pane.
Keeping fundamental data independent from performance data allows you to still be able to see performance on things without fundamental data (i.e. ETFs, Indices, Crypto, etc.) as any script that uses fundamental data will not display when a chart that does not have fundamental data is displayed.
Ratio_between_two_symbolsThis script plots the ratio of two symbols to show the relative strength between in order to determine which is the stronger security
Relative Strength against IndexThis is a very simple script to compare the performance of a single stock against its index, by adding / subtracting points for particular price action on up /down - days in the index.
For instance: If the index is down <-1ATR and the stock is not, it's +1 point. If the index is up >1ATR and the stock is up less than half, it's -1 point.
Basic idea (vs the commonly used "relative strength comparison") is that regular relative strength action over a time tells more about accumulaiton than pure price outperformance.
Formula can probably be made better - I'm open to suggestions...
IT-Dual Relative StrengthOne can use this indicator to compare two security i.e. (Nifty and stock with its own sector) how it is performing in compare with preferred index ( Nifty 50 by default).
> 0 outperforming
< 0 underperforming
Works best for Daily TF, but can be applied to Weekly and monthly charts .
Can be use on smaller time frame as well, as per the number of hour you want to calculate.
Apply it to Nifty 50 , industry index, sector index or other security in similar sector
I have Added the Box table as well which shows the performance agents Nifty and selected sector.

Mansfield Relative Strength (Original Version) by stageanalysisThe Mansfield Relative Strength ( Mansfield RS ) is one of the core components of the Stan Weinstein's Stage Analysis method as discussed in his classic book Stan Weinstein's Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets .
The Mansfield RS measures the relative performance of the stock compared to an index such as the S&P 500, or to another stock etc.
However, this should not to be confused with the popular RSI (Relative Strength Index developed J. Welles Wilder), which is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements on a single stock.
The Mansfield RS indicator consists of the Relative Strength comparison line versus the S&P 500 (default universal setting, but can be edited), and the "Zero Line" – which is the 52 week MA of the Relative Strength line, that's been flattened to create the oscillator style.
How to use the Indicator:
Outperforming – Above the Zero Line
When the Relative Strength line crosses above the Zero Line (it's flattened 52 week RS MA), it is outperforming the index or stock that it's comparing against, and so it is showing stronger relative strength.
Underperforming – Below the Zero Line
When the Relative Strength line crosses below the Zero Line (it's flattened 52 week RS MA), it is underperforming the index or stock that it's comparing against, and so it is showing weaker relative strength.
Settings:
When you first add the indicator is has a coloured background, with a green tint for a postive RS score, and a red tint for a negative RS score. However, this can be turned off, or edited in the indicator settings, in the Style tab. So you can change the colors or remove it and just have the RS line and zero line showing. Both of which can also be edited in the settings.
Change the symbol that it compares against. The default is the S&P 500. But for crypto you might want to use Bitcoin for example. Or you might want to compare against competing stocks in the same peer group, or against the industry group or sector. The choice is yours. But the S&P 500 is a universal measure for the Mansfield RS. So I would recommend leaving it on that unless you have a particular reason to change it as mentioned.
MA Length is also an editable setting. This creates the Zero Line. So it will affect the values of the Mansfield RS if you change it. 52 is the default setting, and is set as such for the weekly chart. So I'd recommend not editing it on the weekly chart, but for other timeframes, different settings can be used.
[GTH] Relative Strength, SectorsDisplays the Relative Strength (RS) of a symbol in relation to some common sector ETFs, SPX and NDX (select from drop-down list). This is done by dividing the symbol's price by the chosen sector ETF's price.
You can also select a symbol of your choice to compare against.
Interpretation:
RS line ascending: symbol performs stronger than the sector ETF.
RS line decending: symbol performs weaker than the sector ETF.
In case of error reports: please be specfic. Thanks.
