The Peak Strength Signal

Within 2% of 52-week high. Shows relative strength leadership.

What it detects

Peak Strength marks stocks trading within 2% of their 52-week high. Stocks near annual highs are the ones the market has been rewarding, so this signal serves as the scanner’s baseline test of relative-strength leadership.

How Signal52 computes it

The pipeline computes each stock’s distance from its trailing 252-trading-day high. The signal fires when that distance is 2% or less. It describes a state rather than an event: a stock can carry Peak Strength for weeks while it rides its highs.

How to read it

Because it is a state signal, Peak Strength means the most in combination. Next to Quiet Storm or Bollinger Squeeze it describes a leader coiling near highs. Next to Extension or Distribution it describes a leader that may be running hot. On its own it simply tells you the stock is on the market’s top shelf.

DNA Signals in the Elite Score: DNA signals measure structural quality: relative strength, persistent momentum, institutional accumulation, and consistent price behavior. They answer whether the stock has the right stuff. DNA signals carry the heaviest weights in the Elite Score because structure is what separates durable moves from noise.
