What is RELATIVE STRENGTH?

Relative strength is a strategy used in momentum investing and in identifying value stocks.

It focuses on investing in stocks or other investments that have performed well relative to the market as a whole or to a relevant benchmark.
1/n

For example, a relative strength investor might select technology companies that have outperformed the Nifty50, or the Nifty 500.
This is basically used for Identifying the strongest sector , stocks , asset class by comparing the relative performance

How to apply it in tradingview?
Type
“Relative Strength”
Choose any

I use by bharattrader
In setting use 65 period
3/n

Formula for Rs
Using 65 as period and base as NiftyOne can use 123 or 250 as period depending upon your time frame of holding
If your view is short term then 65 works great and mid to long term can use 123 and 250 .

Why to Use RS ?
Helps to filter out stocks in good momentum and that are giving better returns than nifty
These stocks tend to outperform the market.
These are potentially superstocks

65 period signifies 3 months of trading
In 3 months we have around 65 trading days

How does RELATIVE STRENGTH look ?

0 line that helps to differentiate between underperformer and outperformer
>1 Outperforming the markets
<0 Underperforming the markets
When 65 RS Goes above 2 its too much heated and generally goes into consolidation or pullback

9/n
S&P500 Vs Nifty

NIFTY INFRA vs NIFTY 50 VS NIFTY psu
The Highlighted part means that
Nifty Infra is outperforming the nifty 50 index in that period but underperforming the Psu bank index
That indirectly means that psubanks have outperformed both nifty and nifty infra and hence is the strongest

You can Compare any Asset with any other asset by changing the comparative symbol
You can use CNX IT , PHARMA , INFRA to compare your stocks to specific Sector

Outperformance Vs Underperformance

Extended >2: Stock Correct

Globus Spirits Vs Goodluck
13/n

Points to remember :
Key point: Relative Strength tends to select high beta or low beta stocks, depending on the market trend.
When that trend undergoes a major reversal, Relative Strength will see its peak underperformance.
Because tops and bottoms are sharp and quick.

Difference between RS vs CRS
The RS calculates the relationship between price of the past “N” period in our case 65
The CRS calculates the relation on daily basis price change and plots
CRS will show you the trend of the particular day while RS shows you trend of past 65 days

Simpler Explanation
Example 1
Nifty Falls 10 % over a period but a stock a stock gains 10% . What does that mean ?
Nifty Stays Flat over a period but a stock gains 10% . What does that mean ?
Nifty Rises 10% over a period but your stock Rises 50% .
What does that mean ?
19/n

ANS :
Buyers are still interested in the stock/ Sellers are weak and when market recovers these are the stocks which move Ahead much faster as they already have strength .
Stocks that are showing strength in weak market will outperform in strong market
20/n

CASE STUDY LIVE
Screenshot From Telegram channel
Technical Test given to followers to select the best stock

A) outperformer as + RS
B) and C) At support and hence most chose that as an answer as swing trading bet
Over the next 10 days
A) JSL HISAR gave a + Return of 18%
22/n

Immediately the stock A) gave 6%+ Returns while other stocks closed in red
Even though a stock is trading at support doesn’t means its bound to rise
A stock with Positive RS will move faster than a stock with –Ve RS
That is OUTPERFORMANCE we are talking about
