Value & Investment Index
Where a stock or index sits within its own recent trading range — a positioning measure, not a sentiment gauge. Covers every broad index, every sectoral index, and 491 stocks — expandable from Admin without a deploy.
Cross-check with the Relative Rotation Graph
RRG shows sector momentum and rotation against a benchmark; VII shows where a sector sits in its own trading range. They're different lenses on the same sectors — worth validating one against the other before drawing a conclusion from either alone.
Pair with Fundamental Score
VII shows where a stock sits in its own trading range — a value/positioning signal. Fundamental Score shows business quality (Piotroski, ROE/ROCE, leverage, growth), independent of price. A stock in the Value zone with a Strong Fundamental Score is a genuinely different signal than a cheap stock with weak fundamentals.
Strategy results — buy the dip, sell the rally
A fixed reference strategy, not investment advice: buy a bigger tranche the deeper into the Value zone VII goes, sell a bigger tranche the deeper into the Rich zone it goes, only while actually holding a position — and only once a zone has held for 10 straight trading days, filtering out short noise. Modeled on a ₹10,000 base tranche — not real capital. The % shown is each trade's own return prorated to a 1-year basis (annualized by its exact holding period) and averaged by capital deployed — so a 3-month win and a 12-month win aren't blended as if they were the same — each trade's annualized return is also capped at 500% so one extreme real trade can't single-handedly skew the average across thousands of ordinary ones (the underlying currency P&L is never capped). Realized results are also split by holding period into short-term (sold within a year of purchase), mid-term (1-5 years), long-term (5-10 years), and forever (10+ years) — only the 1-year line is a real India STCG/LTCG tax boundary; the rest are finer buckets within long-term capital gains, for browsing, not separate tax categories.
Frequently asked
No. It describes where a price sits in its own recent range — that's context, not a recommendation. A stock in the Value zone can keep falling; a stock in the Rich zone can keep rising. Pair it with your own thesis.
VII is a technical/informational indicator for your own research — it is not investment advice and should not be the sole basis for a buy or sell decision. Past positioning does not predict future returns. Please consult your investment advisor.
