Sector Rotation Strategy Tester (Relative Strength)
Instructions:
- Select the number of sectors you want to compare (2-5).
- For each sector and the benchmark, enter a name/ticker.
- Paste historical price data as comma-separated values (e.g.,
100,101,102.5,...
). All series must have the same number of data points and represent the same frequency (e.g., daily, monthly). - Enter the number of data points per year for your data (e.g., 252 for daily, 12 for monthly). This is used for CAGR calculation.
- Set strategy parameters: Momentum Lookback, Rebalancing Frequency (both in number of data periods), and Number of Top Sectors to Hold.
- The backtest starts after enough data is available for the initial momentum calculation. The strategy will hold the selected top sector(s) in equal weights.

This tool backtests a Sector Rotation strategy based on Relative Strength (Momentum) against a Buy & Hold of the Benchmark. The strategy invests in the top N sector(s) with the highest momentum over the lookback period, rebalancing at specified intervals. Results are based on user-provided historical data and chosen parameters. Past performance is not indicative of future results. This simulation does not account for trading commissions, taxes, slippage, or other market frictions. This is for informational purposes only and not investment advice.
