Tomorrow, Nov. 9th, we will roll out revised ETF Performance and RSF Trends pages. Nothing real new with the data, just a continuation of the new look we introduced with the Moving Average pages a few weeks back. However, existing links will not work directly with the new pages due to the menu changes. They will be auto-converted and you will be given the option to continue to the new page. After that, you will probably want to save the new link to avoid the extra step. If you want a sneak peak you can take a look at the revised ETF Performance Page and maybe try out your saved links by changing ‘etfperf.php’ to ‘etfperf2.php’. The new RSF Trends page can be seen here.  The other performance pages will be updated later this week.
If you see any issues with these new layouts please let us know with a comment or an email.
Also, beginning tomorrow we will be updating data every 30 minutes during the trading day. This has been an issue for a while for some of you and we are glad to be able to add these additional updates due to your continued support. The schedule will begin with our current 9:55 am ET update and continue through 3:25 pm. Then we will have our regular 3:45 update prior to market close and our 4:16 update after market close. The nightly update will continue as it has, at about 10:30 ET.
Enjoy, and let us know what you would like to see. We have some changes coming for the Screener next.
Awesome site and great work to keep improving it…much appreciated.
Thanks, and hope you all find it beneficial.
Please keep the leveraged only button. It is very useful just to track leveraged etfs.
Select the Leveraged Funds Only option. I think that is what you are looking for.
I’ve lost the ability to track via RRS, that differentiated this site from others, will this come back?
Sorry about that, RRS has been added back as a righthand-column option. I assume that is what you are referencing. Always a risk when you try to streamline options down to what you think people are regularly using. If any other fields are important please let me know.
Let me pass an idea by you, and anyone else reading this. We’re considering a drop-down type box just above the ‘Name’ column title where you could easily select from various ‘views’. A couple might be site standards, but the others would be definable by registered users. These views would be definable much like the column selection used in creating portfolios. This would make it easy to switch between, for example, the standard performance view and a short-term technical view.
Currently this is just a consideration, but the latest updates have left room for such a feature.
Thanks for that, but having a user selectable column(s) in the portfolio view would be most helpful. Different portfolio views would accomplish that also.
Being able to backtest rrs (or rsf for that matter) strategies would be great, does rsf incorporate any rrs? Thanks again Todd.

We tried to keep the portfolio page clean, thinking users would know exactly what they were looking for, but that might not be a correct assumption. It would be fairly easy to include the standard menu bar on that page, I think. It would keep the page consistent with the rest of the site and, personally, I find myself using the volume filters a good bit. I miss that option on some large portfolios (more watch list than portfolio).
RRS is not included in the RSf calculations, although it seems to improve them in some respects. I’m not finished yet, but I’ve been studying this exact area the past few days. Looks promising. The RSf calculation has been unchanged for 6 years or so. Hate to change it, but it could be time. Won’t happen for a while though.
I hear you on the backtesting capabilities. That is getting it’s share of time these days as well.

Thanks! for the RRS sort.
You are quite welcome, enjoy. Thanks, Hugh
Maybe keep traditional RSf and add an “RSf-RRS” alternative.
Too early to call the next version of RSf, if there is one. But carrying two measures would not be out of the question, at least for a long enough period to gain experience with the new measure. We don’t take changes like that lightly. Good thought. – Hugh
