The Relative Strength (RS) Rating for MPLX moved up into a new percentile Wednesday, as it got a lift from 69 to 72.

As you try to find the best stocks to buy and watch, be sure to pay attention to relative price strength.

This proprietary rating tracks market leadership by using a 1 (worst) to 99 (best) score that shows how a stock's price performance over the last 52 weeks compares to other publicly traded companies.

History shows that the stocks that go on to make the biggest gains typically have an RS Rating of over 80 as they launch their largest runs. See if MPLX can continue to rebound and clear that threshold.
