This opinion piece argues that the growth of algorithmic trading has weakened familiar short-term, sentiment-driven approaches in China’s A-share market. It recommends avoiding impulsive entries during sharp rises, considering staged buying after panic…
A platform support exchange explains one reason a strategy may produce trades in backtesting but no signals in simulated trading. The strategy’s prediction start and end dates were tied to live-trading parameters, while no lookback days were requested.…
This research note examines an active-trading factor, called ACT, that characterizes aggressive versus passive order flow in China’s A-share market. It reports that the standard ACT measure has limited stock-selection ability, then splits observations by…
This document outlines an A-share stock-selection rule requiring turnover between 3% and 12%, a rising DEA signal, and an opening price from 2% below to 5% above the previous close. It provides example indicator formulas and Python-style logic that…
