Sector Rotation(RRG) helped me avoid MAG7, but there is no reliable tools online, so I built it myself. Now you can use it for free.
Sector Rotation is probably one of the most effective tools for swing trading, which helped me get out of the Software sector and Bitcoin long before they became lagging this year. I shifted to things like SOXX half a year ago, when they became the leading sector.
Problem is, the good RRG tools are all behind a paywall, and the free ones I tried were either broken or computing the ratios wrong. So I built my own and you can use it for free at https://quantgt.io/rrg.
For anyone who's new to this tool, it takes 16 major sectors, measures each one's strength relative to the index, and plots two things: RS-ratio on the x-axis (how strong it is vs the benchmark) and RS-momentum on the y-axis (whether that strength is building or fading). Leaders land top-right, laggards bottom-left, and you can watch things rotatae clockwise among them. There is also a weekly summary that you can use to help understand the sector rotation in plain language.
Of course, any tool has its limitation. It works best when there's a clear trend, like right now with AI/semis obviously leading. When the market's chopping sideways and can't pick a direction, the signal gets noisy and I just trust it a lot less.
Hope this brings value to your trading, and let me know if you have any feedback!
