Mansfield RS with 3 SMAs
Overview

This personalized version aims to define RS trends more clearly and end them sooner, helping traders make better-informed decisions.

Key Features
Relative Strength Calculation:

Comparison: Calculates the RS of a chosen symbol against a benchmark (default: S&P 500).
Normalization: Uses the stock’s closing price divided by the closing price of the benchmark over a specified period.
Three SMAs:

Periods: Configurable periods for three SMAs (default: 10, 20, 50).
Trend Smoothing: SMAs help smooth the RS line, making it easier to spot trends and potential reversals.
Visualization:

Area Plot: The RS line is displayed as an area plot.
Color Coding: Different colors for each SMA to distinguish them easily (yellow, orange, purple).
Customization Options:

Comparative Symbol: Choose any benchmark symbol.
Period Adjustment: Customize the periods for both the RS calculation and the SMAs.
Visibility: Option to show or hide the SMAs.
How to Use
Setup:

Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Customize: Adjust the comparative symbol, RS period, and SMA periods as per your preference.
Interpretation:

Rising RS Line: Indicates the stock is outperforming the benchmark.
Falling RS Line: Suggests underperformance.
SMA Crossovers: Watch for the RS line crossing above or below the SMAs to signal potential buy or sell points.
Trend Direction: SMAs help confirm the trend direction. A rising RS line above the SMAs indicates a strong relative performance.
