• Just as you can click on the "Show me a Block Trader Forecast Chart" button under a R:R Chart and have it cycle through all the choices in the combo box (to the right of the button), you can do the same thing with the industry group R:R charts.

The value of the index indicates that percent of all covered stocks that this stock has outperformed, using the Simple Strategy.
