What Is Static Relative Strength (RS)?

Static Relative strength is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of a stock’s price movement vis-a-vis the benchmark index (Nifty/Sensex) over a period of 123 trading days.

If a Stock has performed better than the benchmark, then SRS is positive, SRS 0 signifies the exact same movement of the stock, and negative ARS signifies the Stock has underperformed the benchmark index.

What Is Adaptive Relative Strength (RS)?

Adaptive Relative strength is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of a stock’s price movement vis-a-vis the benchmark index (Nifty/Sensex). The benchmark date considered here has been predefined by StockEdge based on the last major market trend change date. These dates can be seen by plotting ARS in Edge Chart.

Suppose a stock has performed better than the benchmark. In that case, ARS is positive, ARS 0 signifies the exact same movement of the stock, and negative ARS signifies the Stock has underperformed the benchmark index.

The indicator can also be used to compare two companies in the same industry or Index. This comparison examines the relative strength performance of two stocks with respect to their benchmark or sector and can help to decide whether one should hold, buy, or sell the other.
