Use PowerRatings with the Top Relative Strength/Earnings New-Highs list

The Top Relative Strength/Earnings New-Highs List comprises of stocks have made
new highs and are also ranked in the top 15%-20% of both relative strength (RS)
and earnings (ER). Such stocks usually have the best fundamental and technical
prospects to move significantly higher. The industry sector, group and sub-group
for each stock are listed as well. The list also enables you to stay on top of
every consolidation breakout by strong earnings and relative strength stocks, as
well as identify “runaway” up-market super-strong technical criteria that offer
excellent shorter-term trading opportunities.

These stocks are prime candidates for buying strategies, including shorter-term
strategies with intraday-sized risk. These trades offer the opportunity to hold
at least part of the position (if they move quickly and strongly in your favor)
for a much longer period, often creating highly favorable risk/reward ratios. Be
sure to use this page nightly to identify candidates for the following trading
day.

One final note: The number of new highs will almost always decrease
fairly markedly before an intermediate-term market peak, while the number of new
lows will almost always increase. Similarly, the number of new lows will almost
always decrease markedly prior to an intermediate-term bottom, while the number
of new highs will increase. To learn how to make the best use of this
