RSI vs Stochastic Comparison

This project compared the performance of two common technical indicators, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Stochastic Oscillator, as trading strategies. Using QuantConnect to backtest on S&P 500 stocks stratified by beta over a two-year period, the group found that the Stochastic Oscillator strategy generally yielded better results than the standard RSI strategy. While they achieved some performance improvements for RSI by optimizing its bands based on stock beta, the Stochastic Oscillator remained the superior strategy across most beta groups tested.
