This unique rating tracks technical performance by using a 1 (worst) to 99 (best) score that indicates how a stock's price action over the trailing 52 weeks matches up against that of all other stocks.
History shows that the market's biggest winners tend to have an RS Rating north of 80 in the early stages of their moves.
