 Is it possible to do a comparative relative strength test against  the S&P 500  using specific dates?
 
 For example:  Stocks whose comparative relative strength is above 1.0 compared to the S&P 500 from 11/02/07 to 11/27/07?
 
 Thanks
 JB

 JB, you didn't specify a period for relative strength so I'm assuming you wanted a 12 month relative strength.  The following filter is one way to identify all stocks which had a relative strength of 1+ during the period 11/2 - 11/27:
 
 
 
 
 If I've misinterpreted anything, please post back.

 Thanks Max.  Let me elaborate and clarify.
 
 I would like the comparison period to be over the 25 days for the time period 11/02/07 to 11/27/07.  In generic terms, I would like to find stocks that out performed the SPX 500 over the 25 day time frame 11/02/07 to 11/27/07.
 
 Merry Christmas to you, and to all.

 JB, the period 11/2 - 11/27 has only 16 trading days.  I included my own price and volume parameters.  Feel free to change as you wish:

 Max,
 
 Thanks.  Looks good.
 
 Another question
 When I run the filter from the “Forum” (click on magnify glass) the filter accepts the “date offset” .   When I save it to My Filters I get the “date offset” is ignored warning.  I would like to have “date offset” be functional.  Do I run the filter from “Forum” every time or can I save it in a way that the “date offset” will be functional?
 
 Thanks.  Anyone have any thoughts?
 JB

 JB, stockfetcher currently does not allow a "date offset" statement when saving a filter.
