Methodology
Methodology: How the Platform is Built.
BearBull Scan turns daily closes into six composite scores per stock and index.
- Momentum - Short Term (M-ST)
- Momentum - Medium Term (M-MT)
- Momentum - Long Term (M-LT)
- Relative Strength - Short Term (RS-ST)
- Relative Strength - Medium Term (RS-MT)
- Relative Strength - Long Term (RS-LT)
No black box — here is exactly what each number means.
Core Metrics
Momentum (M)
Momentum measures a stock's or index's own Strength or Weakness over a lookback window. BearBull Scan computes three composite momentum scores — Short, Medium, and Long Term (ST, MT, and LT) — each a weighted blend of two lookbacks so a single noisy day doesn't dominate the reading.
Relative Strength (RS)
Relative strength measures Strength or Weakness versus a benchmark — a stock against its sector, or a sector against Nifty 50. It is also calculated over three time periods (ST, MT, and LT). RS reveals where leadership is emerging.
Some NSE sector indices have no matching Kite index series. For those parents,BearBull Scan builds a labeled equal-weight average of member closes (not official NSE index levels) so stock RS versus the sector can still be computed. This is a proxy only — not the official NSE equal-weight methodology (no quarterly rebalance, weight drift, or free-float splits). Momentum for those members is unchanged.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is relative strength (RS) in the stock market?
Relative strength measures how an instrument performs versus a benchmark — a stock against its sector index, or a sector against Nifty 50. Unlike raw price momentum, RS reveals genuine leadership: a stock can rise while still lagging its peers.
How does BearBull Scan calculate momentum?
BearBull Scan computes three composite momentum scores — short, medium, and long term — for each stock and index. Each score is a weighted blend of two price-return lookbacks, so a single noisy session doesn't dominate the reading.
What do ST, MT, and LT mean?
ST, MT, and LT stand for short, medium, and long term. They apply to both momentum (M) and relative strength (RS), giving six composite scores per instrument: M-ST / M-MT / M-LT and RS-ST / RS-MT / RS-LT.
Which market does BearBull Scan cover?
BearBull Scan covers the Indian equity market — 90+ indices and 1,300+ stocks, ranked and refreshed after every daily close.
Is BearBull Scan investment advice?
No. BearBull Scan is a quantitative analysis tool that surfaces momentum and relative-strength signals. It does not provide financial advice, stock recommendations, or facilitate trades.
