Relative Rating Index (RRI)

How it works

The RRI calculates the momentum of technical ratings by tracking the proportion of positive evaluations within a specified period. It first determines the total number of technical ratings and counts the positive ratings during that timeframe.

Using a formula similar to RSI, the indicator transforms these ratings into a numerical value between 0 and 100. When the RRI exceeds 50, it indicates more buy signals, with values above 60 suggesting a strong buying trend and values below 40 indicating a selling trend.

Why it may be useful

The RRI provides traders with a more nuanced understanding of market momentum beyond single-moment technical ratings. By analyzing the consistency and frequency of positive ratings, traders can gain deeper insights into market sentiment and potential trend strength.

This approach helps overcome the limitations of traditional technical ratings by offering a comprehensive view of rating trends. Traders can use the RRI to identify sustained market directions and make more informed trading decisions based on longer-term rating patterns.

When to explore it

The RRI is most effective when used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm market trends. It works best in markets with clear directional movements and can help traders identify potential entry and exit points during sustained trends.

Traders should pay special attention when the RRI crosses key thresholds like 60 or 40, or when it approaches extreme levels near 90 or 10. The indicator is particularly useful for understanding the underlying strength of technical ratings across different timeframes and market conditions.
