RS Candle Highlighter (vs SPY/QQQ) – 5m

This indicator highlights candles of a stock that show relative strength vs. a benchmark index (SPY or QQQ) on a 5-minute chart.

It works in two steps:

Bar relative strength – compares the return of the current candle with the return of the benchmark over the same 5-minute period.

Cumulative relative strength – compares the stock’s performance over a rolling lookback window (user-defined, e.g. last 3–5 bars) with the benchmark’s cumulative return.

A candle is highlighted when both conditions are positive, meaning the stock is outperforming the index both on the current bar and across the recent window.

Features

Choice of benchmark: SPY or QQQ

Adjustable lookback window (number of bars for cumulative RS)

Adjustable outperformance margins for bar and cumulative signals

Colored candles (body or full candle) for clear visual detection

Optional labels (RS+) under candles

Built-in alert conditions for strong relative strength vs. SPY or QQQ

Use case

Quickly identify stocks showing early and exceptional strength versus the market or sector benchmark.

Especially useful during the first 15–30 minutes after the open, to spot leaders of the day.

🔑 Critical parameters to adjust
1. Cumulative window (lookbackBars)

If you want to detect very early, you need a short horizon.

Recommendation: 3 to 5 bars (i.e. 15–25 minutes).
👉 This lets you immediately see if a stock is outperforming right from the open, without waiting too long.

2. Outperformance margin – per bar (barEdgeBuffer)

You want to filter out microstructural noise.

On 5-minute charts, a liquid stock usually moves about ±0.05% naturally.

Recommendation: 0.001 (0.10%) to 0.002 (0.20%), depending on your tolerance.
👉 Below 0.05% it triggers too often; above 0.20% you risk missing the fast movers.

3. Outperformance margin – cumulative (cumEdgeBuffer)

To confirm that it’s not just a “one-off spike.”

Recommendation: 0.003 (0.30%) to 0.005 (0.50%).
👉 This way, after 3–5 bars, the stock has really accumulated strength versus the index.
