The Powerful Indicator that can lead you to SuccessHello Everyone,
Today we are again with a New Topic CRS (Comparative Relative Strength)
So Lets Start
What is Comparative Relative Strength
This chapter will share insights on a valuable lesser-known form of market analysis referred to as comparative relative strength ( CRS ). This is the study of one stock or sector in relation to other sectors or the overall market. This technical study can give a better look at where the money may or may not be flowing. Comparative relative strength is not to be confused with Welles Wilder's relative strength index or Williams Percent “R” indicators. Both of these technical tools are considered oscillators and give an indication if the stock or security is overbought or oversold relative to its past price action over a specific period of time.
WHAT IS IT USED FOR?
In using CRS , we take one market and divide it into another, and the result is a continuous close line graph. Typically, the numerator is the product that we are comparing against the denominator or benchmark. This technique is used to uncover or detect any hidden weakness or strength when analyzing one company against another in the same sector or comparing an individual stock against its related industry sector. We can also use this technique to compare individual stocks or sectors to the benchmark stock index like the Standard & Poor's ( S&P ) 500, the Dow Jones Industrial Average , the Russell 200, the Nasdaq 100, or the Nasdaq Composite . Why do traders use this analysis method? To see where the money is flowing to help confirm a trading bias. To see if a stock or sector is outperforming compared to its benchmark. To see which are the weakest sectors compared to the benchmark. As an early warning signal.
Pair Trading
A pair trade simply consists of buying one company and simultaneously selling short another similar or “like” company with the expected results to see the company one bought outperforming the company that was sold. Keep in mind that the key word here is performance. As you will see, markets can move higher or lower, but one product may not move up or down as far or fast compared to the like market. This is why a spread or relative strength chart may show an increase or decrease in the trend.
Example of Pair Trading :-
We saw a couple of months ago that when Ronaldo moved two Bottles of Coke, The share price of coke started to a downfall in this situation Pepsi will get a much profit than coke so we will select Pepsi to buy
CREATING THE CHARTS
Setting up your charting platform is relatively easy. A basic relative chart is created as a spread chart. Here are a few reasons why you want to look at a comparative difference chart. Comparative analysis or pairs-trading charts are easy to create. Again, we're only looking at the price relationship of one product against another. Logically, since the price is dictated by the laws of supply and demand , you can anticipate that when one market outperforms another, it will do so over a period of time, which lends itself to a trending condition.

Trader's Tip
1. When placing a spread trade, one should remember to enter the size of each side of the trade basis, and the notional value of each side of the spread. Spread trades are not necessarily placed on a “one-to-one” basis, such as selling 100 shares and buying 100 shares. In commodity spreads, for example, one platinum contract is 50 ounces and one gold contract is 100 ounces. Therefore, as a correct spread trade, a ratio of two contracts of platinum versus one contract of gold would be the correct trade per spread order. As for the S&P 500 (ES) versus the Nasdaq 100 (NQ), if the E-mini S&P is valued at 1,340 and the index is priced at $50 times the index, then the notional contract value is $67,000. At the same time, if the E-Mini Nasdaq 100 contract is valued at 2605 and the index is priced at $20 times the index, then the notional contract value is $52,100. Therefore, a correct ratio for a spread trade between the ES and the NQ would be four contracts of the S&P versus five contracts of the Nasdaq
2. Thus, using comparative RS is by definition trading metric. Once again, the question begs: How we can make money using this form of analysis? Spread charts or RS comparisons graphs can give you an idea of the best place to put your money, but perhaps it may help you decide where not to put your money. Using trend-line breaks in the RS charts helps us to uncover what we call divergence between the spread chart and absolute prices. Therefore, make sure you set up your trading platform so that you look at the two different markets that you want to compare against, as well as the spread or the RS chart.
Two definitions of metrics found in Webster's dictionary are
1. The art of metrical composition, which is pertaining to measurement.
2. Combining form means the science of measuring that specified by the initial element.
Automating Signals
Most traders and technicians ask themselves what they can do to improve their indicators so they can respond more quickly to changes in market conditions. The obvious answer is the speed at which the data is received. But for end-of-day analysis, speed is not an issue. With thousands of markets to analyze, it would be nearly impossible to detect signals in all the market combinations, a requirement of using RS analysis. Therefore, it is best to take advantage of computer technology and create an automated scanning feature. How do we create this? By using moving averages on the RS charts themselves. As a rule of thumb, when using moving averages, the shorter the time frame, the more sensitive it is to price changes. I find that using a simple moving average for shorter time periods is effective for using longer time frames. Using a weighted moving average to the nearest close is more effective. For instance, if I'm using a 3- period moving average, I would use a simple moving average . If I'm using 12 or more time periods, I would use a weighted close moving average. In the following examples, I am using a 15-period weighted moving average .
Comparing two significant charts, So that we could find which gives more profit and which gives less
Conclusion
Comparative RS analysis demonstrates the concept of sticking with stocks in the strongest-performing groups—that's not to say that you can't make money in an overall rising stock market, but your best rate of return or performance will be with the stocks that are tied to strong industry groups. It also helps identify the weaker sectors, so you may figure out what to avoid. That way you are not putting good money to use on a less productive market. I don't want to make this out to be the end-all form of analysis. As I will discuss, there is no one single holy grail of market analysis tools or techniques; that's why we look for corroborating analysis, such as trying to fine-tune our indicators and finding the need for using a moving average of the spread or RS line in addition to trend line analysis. The coming chapters will show how we can apply other tools and techniques to help pinpoint our price entries as well as exit strategies.
Hope you all Like it

The Secret of Sokyu Homma Related to Charts Part :- 1Hello Everyone, Today we will be talking about The Secrets of Sokyu Homma Related to Charts
So let's start with
1. The Sokyu Honma's Two Methods
1. The Samini No Den of the Market
2. The Sakata strategies
2. The first Method, The Samini No Den of the Market (The Subjective Part of the Method)
The first part of Sokyu Honma’s method, the Samni No Den of the market, seeks to develop adequate reflexes and the right attitude of a trader in us. Here is the method and its five rules:
The Five Rules :
1. Without being greedy, look at past market movements and think about the time/price ratio.
2. Try to buy a bottom and sell a top.
3. Increase your position after a rise of 100 bags from the bottom or a decline of 100 bags from the top.
4. If your forecast is incorrect, try to recognize your mistake as soon as possible. Then, close your position and stay out of the market for 40 to 50 days
5. Close 70 to 80 % of your positions, if they are profitable, closing what is left after a top or a bottom is reached.
3. Examining the Simple and Powerful Methods
(HOW TO MASTER YOUR TRADING: YOUR FIRST STEP TO SUCCESS)
Rule 1
This rule tells us to measure and study the time/price relationships. Note that this approach was at the heart of Gann’s method, for which an equilibrium between time and price is crucial.
This rule enables us to categorize the movements of the market in terms of time and price. Here is an example: the market has risen x points in y weeks from a historic bottom to a historic top. During this rise, there have been upward movements for each swing of p points and w weeks. Within this same movement, corrections and consolidations are each within a range of d points for a duration of e weeks. We follow the same procedure for the movement from the historic top to the historic bottom. This measuring technique may be applied to any time frame. The rule tells us that we must not be greedy. It is important that we do not try to obtain the maximum possible gain, as indicated by past movements. We must try to win without becoming greedy. In this way, we will avoid the risk of overstaying in the market and seeing our gains disappear. Unfortunately, this is exactly what happens to most traders. Therefore, choose an exit point that will limit your avarice and that, at the same time, is indicated by the market itself. Here, only practice will bring you knowledge. By studying the time/price ratios, you will discover things – the market itself will speak to you. Remember that the only master is the market. Remember also that it is necessary to have a practical attitude – a way to knowledge by doing. I can guarantee that this rule alone will enable you to succeed in the market. The rule has another benefit. It will make you invulnerable. No one else will have knowledge of your tactic. It will be your secret.
Rule 2
This rule does not tell us to buy bottoms and sell tops but to attempt to do it. This is something completely different. Act at the right time. Avoid the temptation to buy when it is already too late. Anxiety and impatience push us toward this kind of behavior. Learn to wait for only the best opportunities.
Rule 3
Increase your position following a rise of 100 bags from a bottom or a decline of 100 bags from a top. This rule indicates a price/volume ratio. For any given price change, there is a corresponding change in volume. Here, the market is inverted because the price was fixed and the volume was variable at the time. A rise of 100 bags means a drop in price. A decline of 100 bags means a rise in price. This rule tells us to increase our position in the direction of the market (i.e. increase our position only if the market continues to rise; we should not increase our position if the market is down unless it progressively declines). It also tells us to increase progressively only until our positions have been completed. For example, if we buy 900 shares, we must break up our buying into several purchases. We buy first, say, 300 shares at one price and the next 300 only if the market goes our way. We buy the last 300 shares only if the market continues to go our way. Do not buy everything at the same time! Exercising patience is a much worthier goal than winning in the market. Thanks to our exercise of patience, we will end up by having a much greater number of winning trades. Someone may argue, ‘But when there is an opportunity, why not place all our positions in the beginning?’ Greed has just made its appearance. A fatal mistake!
Rule 4
In case we are wrong, we must close our positions and stay away from the market for a period of 40 to 50 days. This advice is a nugget of wisdom. It conceals a secret and is a mystery in itself. Even though the meaning of the rule is to refrain from the market activity so that we can have a clear mind, the following literal sense of this rule is excellent. Not only will your mind relax and rest, but also your unconscious will have time to integrate and perfect your strategy and tactic, enabling you to see ‘clearly.’ You will receive insight that only comes as a result of patience and waiting. The secrets of trading will be made clear.5 Once again, we hear a call for patience and a warning to control greed. Understand whoever can!
Rule 5
Close 70 to 80 % of your positions as soon as you have the minimum expected gain. Wait until the end of the movement to close the others. Here, once again, it is studying the market that will tell us when to close each position. Again, this rule is a call for our patience and a warning to keep greed under control. Many traders want to close their positions as soon as they have a small gain. This leads, as a consequence, to achieving big losses and small gains. We must learn to wait and have the courage to see our position develop according to the precise plan that was prepared in the beginning. One must recognize that a plan that was prepared previously will tell us exactly when to close the first 70 or 80 % of our position and when to close the rest – taking into account the risk/reward ratio known and tested in advance. This rule contains a hidden and powerful secret. It is up to you to discover it! Up to this point, we have examined the five rules of the subjective part of the method. Their logic is consistent. Further, the five have a common denominator – a call for patience and to control greed. This is a mastery of self that has, as a result, the mastery of time, because we learn to wait for the right moment, and the mastery of price, since we learn to buy at the right price. There is a rigorous linking of the five rules. The first rule indicates the fundamental principle of the market and its fluctuations in time and price. It tells us to measure them, to measure objectively the natural market movement – its oscillators or swings. Once the extent of this movement is known, the second rule tells us when to take action within these movements. We must wait for the right time. Once we know when to buy and when to sell, we must still learn how much to buy or sell. Rule 3 tells us this. Finally, once we are engaged in a trade, we must know when to exit and close our position with a gain or a loss. Rules 4 and 5 tell us this.
4. In this way, the Samni No Den, the part of Sokyu Honma’s method which consists of the subjective five rules, will have taught us:
1. How to manage time and price.
2. How to manage buying and selling points.
3. How to decide what size of position to take.
4. How to manage losses.
5. How to manage wins.
5. The Second Method, The Sakata Methods (The Objective Part of the Method) SAKATA’S FIVE METHODS AND THEIR CORRESPONDING MARKET PHASES
The ‘five Sakata methods’ belong to the objective part of Sokyu Honma’s method and focus on the structures or phases of the market. There are five structures or basic configurations:
The Five Rules :-
1. San Zan means three mountains and is the triple top.
2. San Sen means three rivers and is the triple bottom.
3. San Ku means a triple gap and refers to the empty intervals between prices.
4. San Pei means three lines and refers to a continuously ascending trend that is composed of three time/price units.
5. San Poh means three rests and refers to a corrective movement within a trend that is made up of three time/price units.
6. Each of these strategies or methods is related to a specific market phase or configuration. These phases are: If You Don't Understand then Refer to the Picture. In the Next Part, We will Give a Complete Representation of It.
Premutation of the Five Phases :-
(a) 1 and 2: turning points, tops or bottoms;
(b) 3: gaps;
(c) 4: trends;
(d) 5: consolidations, or times when markets rest before continuing their trend.
