What it shows


A compact one-line readout (top-right by default):
TICKER vs INDEX | 30D +x.x% ▲ | 60D +y.y% ▼ | 90D +z.z% ▲

- +x.x% → stock return over the past 30 trading days (always uses daily bars).
- Arrow indicates relative performance vs the selected index: green ▲ = stock outperformed, red ▼ = stock underperformed, - = neutral (within tolerance).
- Percent values are shown with one decimal and a leading + for positives (e.g. +3.4%, -1.2%).

How it works


Apply the indicator to the stock chart (bottom chart in a dual-chart layout).

Choose the sector/index to compare from the “Compare with any Indian Index / Sector” dropdown. The indicator immediately calculates:
- Stock % change over 30 / 60 / 90 daily bars
- Index % change over the same periods
- Displays an arrow that reflects stock% − index% (colored only on the arrow to keep the numbers readable).

Inputs

- Pick Sector : preset list of Indian indices/sectors (no free-text by default).
- Box placement : Top/Bottom × Left/Right.
- Box Size : Tiny / Small / Normal / Large / Huge (controls font size).
- Dark Mode : toggles text color for dark/light charts.
- Show 30D / Show 60D / Show 90D : enable/disable individual periods.
- Equality tolerance (%) : small tolerance window to treat values as “equal” (shows neutral symbol).

Behavior & design choices

- Uses daily series for lookbacks (so 30D/60D/90D = 30/60/90 trading days) — works correctly on intraday charts too.
- Arrow only is colored (green/red/gray) for quick visual scanning; numbers remain neutral for readability.
- No intrusive background box by default — flat overlay that blends with your chart.
- Defaults: Bottom-right placement, Normal size, Light mode = off (so dark charts show white text).

Limitations / notes

- Not financial advice — use as a quick comparative visual, not a trade signal.
- The indicator calculates using the preset index symbols; if your broker/data feed lacks a symbol, the cell shows n/a.
- Due to TradingView table rendering, a tiny pixel gap may appear between a percent and its colored arrow (kept minimal on purpose).
