Stochastic Relative Strength Index
Introduction
Stochastic RSI, or simply StochRSI, is a technical analysis indicator used to determine whether an asset is overbought or oversold, as well as to identify current market trends. As the name suggests, the StochRSI is a derivative of the standard Relative Strength Index (RSI) and, as such, is considered an indicator of an indicator. It is a type of oscillator, meaning that it fluctuates above and below a center line.
To view the implementation of this indicator, see the LEAN GitHub repository.
Using StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex Indicator
To create an automatic indicators for StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex
, call the StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex
helper method from the QCAlgorithm
class. The StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex
method creates a StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex
object, hooks it up for automatic updates, and returns it so you can used it in your algorithm. In most cases, you should call the helper method in the Initialize
initialize
method.
public class StochasticRelativeStrengthIndexAlgorithm : QCAlgorithm { private Symbol _symbol; private StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex _stochasticrelativestrengthindex; public override void Initialize() { _symbol = AddEquity("SPY", Resolution.Daily).Symbol; _stochasticrelativestrengthindex = StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex(_symbol); } public override void OnData(Slice data) { if (_stochasticrelativestrengthindex.IsReady) { // The current value of _stochasticrelativestrengthindex is represented by itself (_stochasticrelativestrengthindex) // or _stochasticrelativestrengthindex.Current.Value Plot("StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex", "stochasticrelativestrengthindex", _stochasticrelativestrengthindex); // Plot all properties of stochasticrelativestrengthindex Plot("StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex", "k", _stochasticrelativestrengthindex.K); Plot("StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex", "d", _stochasticrelativestrengthindex.D); } } }
class StochasticRelativeStrengthIndexAlgorithm(QCAlgorithm): def initialize(self) -> None: self._symbol = self.add_equity("SPY", Resolution.DAILY).symbol self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex = self.stochasticrelativestrengthindex(self._symbol) def on_data(self, slice: Slice) -> None: if self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex.is_ready: # The current value of self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex is represented by self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex.current.value self.plot("StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex", "stochasticrelativestrengthindex", self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex.current.value) # Plot all attributes of self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex self.plot("StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex", "k", self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex.k.current.value) self.plot("StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex", "d", self._stochasticrelativestrengthindex.d.current.value)
The following reference table describes the StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex
method:
If you don't provide a resolution, it defaults to the security resolution. If you provide a resolution, it must be greater than or equal to the resolution of the security. For instance, if you subscribe to hourly data for a security, you should update its indicator with data that spans 1 hour or longer.
For more information about the selector argument, see Alternative Price Fields.
For more information about plotting indicators, see Plotting Indicators.
You can manually create a StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex
indicator, so it doesn't automatically update. Manual indicators let you update their values with any data you choose.
Updating your indicator manually enables you to control when the indicator is updated and what data you use to update it. To manually update the indicator, call the Update
update
method with time/number pair or an IndicatorDataPoint
. The indicator will only be ready after you prime it with enough data.

To register a manual indicator for automatic updates with the security data, call the RegisterIndicator
register_indicator
method.

Indicator History
To get the historical data of the StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex
indicator, call the IndicatorHistory
self.indicator_history
method.
This method resets your indicator, makes a history request, and updates the indicator with the historical data.
Just like with regular history requests, the IndicatorHistory
indicator_history
method supports time periods based on a trailing number of bars, a trailing period of time, or a defined period of time.
If you don't provide a resolution
argument, it defaults to match the resolution of the security subscription.
public class StochasticRelativeStrengthIndexAlgorithm : QCAlgorithm { private Symbol _symbol; public override void Initialize() { _symbol = AddEquity("SPY", Resolution.Daily).Symbol; var stochasticrelativestrengthindex = StochasticRelativeStrengthIndex(_symbol); var countIndicatorHistory = IndicatorHistory(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, _symbol, 100, Resolution.Minute); var timeSpanIndicatorHistory = IndicatorHistory(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, _symbol, TimeSpan.FromDays(10), Resolution.Minute); var timePeriodIndicatorHistory = IndicatorHistory(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, _symbol, new DateTime(2024, 7, 1), new DateTime(2024, 7, 5), Resolution.Minute); } }
class StochasticRelativeStrengthIndexAlgorithm(QCAlgorithm): def initialize(self) -> None: self._symbol = self.add_equity("SPY", Resolution.DAILY).symbol stochasticrelativestrengthindex = self.stochasticrelativestrengthindex(self._symbol) count_indicator_history = self.indicator_history(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, self._symbol, 100, Resolution.MINUTE) timedelta_indicator_history = self.indicator_history(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, self._symbol, timedelta(days=10), Resolution.MINUTE) time_period_indicator_history = self.indicator_history(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, self._symbol, datetime(2024, 7, 1), datetime(2024, 7, 5), Resolution.MINUTE)
To make the IndicatorHistory
indicator_history
method update the indicator with an alternative price field instead of the close (or mid-price) of each bar, pass a selector
argument.
var indicatorHistory = IndicatorHistory(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, 100, Resolution.Minute, (bar) => ((TradeBar)bar).High);
indicator_history = self.indicator_history(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, 100, Resolution.MINUTE, lambda bar: bar.high) indicator_history_df = indicator_history.data_frame
If you already have a list of Slice objects, you can pass them to the IndicatorHistory
indicator_history
method to avoid the internal history request.
var history = History(_symbol, 100, Resolution.Minute); var historyIndicatorHistory = IndicatorHistory(stochasticrelativestrengthindex, history);
To access the properties of the indicator history, invoke the property of each IndicatorDataPoint
object.index the DataFrame with the property name.
var k = indicatorHistory.Select(x => ((dynamic)x).K).ToList(); var d = indicatorHistory.Select(x => ((dynamic)x).D).ToList(); // Alternative way // var k = indicatorHistory.Select(x => x["k"]).ToList(); // var d = indicatorHistory.Select(x => x["d"]).ToList();
k = indicator_history_df["k"] d = indicator_history_df["d"] # Alternative way # k = indicator_history_df.k # d = indicator_history_df.d
