RS ratings tell you what already happened

A 99 RS rating sounds powerful until you look at what it’s actually measuring. One number, averaged across months of price action, ranked against the whole market.

By the time it’s flashing 99, the move might already be done

I have always found that method too rigid and slow for RS analysis, so I built a system I have seen nowhere else — A RS engine that will find you the best stocks without lifting a finger.

Firstly TSF - Analytics will find you all leading themes, and themes about to lead by assessing RS against the broad market and RS acceleration over time.

You find the leading themes -> You dive into that themes stocks.

TSF Analytics gives you six RS lenses on every stock:

-Three RS timeframes — 0-2w, 0-4w, 0-10w. Notice sustained leaders and new leaders early.

-RS measured against the stock’s own theme, not the whole market. The leaders of leading themes are where institutions concentrate, and broad-market RS hides that.

- RS acceleration. Is the move getting stronger or fading? Eager buying will show itself as RS acceleration — the institutional footprint.

-Leadership history. The small dots show you whether the stock has been leading, improving, weakening, or lagging across the last ten weeks. Sustained leaders visualized easily. Every dot calculates RS acceleration of that stock over a fixed lookback to put it in the right category.

- Distance from 52-week high. Real leaders don’t sit far from their highs.

- Accumulation score. A proprietary indicator that I have developed that shows you if the stock is being accumulated or distributed.

Stack the layers and score the variables benchmarked as a top percentile against all other stocks in that theme.

And you have a monster stock screening engine, and you will never have to screen for more than minutes.

Because the default view will show you what scores highest — the leaders can’t hide from TSF - Analytics.

Upgrade launching soon.

This, right now grab the leader at the 5MA, that all they are giving you in these names right now.

@Remzztrades The market is so strong. Why papercut yourself to death trying to time the top when you can just be buying the leaders on weakness with tight risk? If the market falls back, then you get stopped quickly.

Buying leaders on weakness has stayed true currently, over and over again.

I’m changing the screening game.

More screeners is the wrong way to go.

Instead here is an automated approach to always find the best stocks.

In every theme

Every day

After you have experienced TSF Analytics new upgrade, it will be tough looking at anything else

[The Setup Factory @thesetupfactory]

My best advice is to respect a downtrend until that downtrend ends.

The only way to not get FOMO on days like these and remain disciplined is to have traded through bear markets and past corrections.

I have been smoked many times before I got experienced, with every correction you learn something new.

And understanding that the first move up is mechanical, a catalyst causes a bounce from oversold conditions and dealer hedging dynamics in negative gamma amplifies the move.

What matters is the re-test of the prior low and the followthrough. O’Neil did great and he waited for confirmation for a reason — you avoid getting chopped up.

The goal isn’t to catch the first move up or the bottom, the goal is to catch a powerful new trend and the good times.

Patience.

We Are Soon Rolling Out A Major Update To TSF - Analytics

What you already can do:
-Track RS momentum of 50+ themes, assets and sectors in a truly unique way

-Curated analysis of the current leading/improving/weakening groups and how they improve or weaken over time

-Compare RS momentum in an intuitive way across different timeframes, so you can notice Capital rotation and early sub-theme leadership

-Live RS theme tracker — Know what’s leading today

-Access to our proprietary market regime model — so you can avoid the bad environments and know when the environment is favorable for swingtrading. Our model has caught every significant top before they occurred since it was developed

What you will soon be able to do as well:

-I have developed a proprietary method to rank the best stocks in every theme. There is no platform with anything similar to the screening method I have developed

-The platform is designed to find you the best stocks without the need to screen. Everybody gives you more screeners, we give you something much more effective and time-saving.

TSF - Analytics default view will provide you with a curated list of the leading stocks in every theme

-For those that want to dive in, I have created a unique screening method where you can combine different proprietary metrics to find what you are looking for

- I have also created a proprietary ”bullish change of character” signal as an added filter to find stocks in their early bottoming process, and you can combine this with other signals to find new leaders.

It’s hard to explain everything, but what is coming are things nobody has seen elsewhere.

Excited!

So we will enjoy the weekend with hearing that we are oversold and extended to the downside and the low is close.

And I am here to tell you a bounce is irrelevant, focus on the bigger picture.

The market is cracking, and when it cracks, accelerated selling can occur. That can occur immediately or after a bounce. But all the bad things happen when selling accelerates under the 200 SMA.

Respect the weakness. And we are not oversold in longterm breadth, this seems very hard to sink in for people.

But in most reliable lows after declines like these, short term AND longterm breadth needs to get oversold together.

When the market deteriorates, and short term breadth is oversold but not longterm breadth — that favors a dead cat not a reliable low.

Always remain flexible, news can change the narrative — but respect a move like this.

For context, what I use is the model I have developed.

It’s proprietary, backtested more than 10 years and has given zero indications of a risk on signal since we started to decline.

And signaled caution before the decline started.

@RichardMoglen TSLA is an add for me if it can get back above the resistance gap.
