This project description outlines a LightGBM system for classifying the direction of futures prices over a configurable forward horizon. It processes one-minute bars across multiple contracts, builds technical and statistical features, and labels future…
This research summary proposes an information-distribution uniformity factor, UID, based on the idea that uneven arrivals of information create changes in share-price volatility. It uses intraday stock data to calculate daily high-frequency volatility, then…
This note outlines a screen for Chinese stocks associated with the metaverse. It combines a reported rounded-bottom price pattern with positive large-order net flow above 0.05 for at least three consecutive days. The final stated selection logic also adds an…

This proposed equity screen combines three filters: prior-period price amplitude above 1%, circulating shares no greater than 5.5 billion, and 2021 revenue more than 1.1 times 2018 revenue. The document gives example formula and Python-style implementations…
This trading system looks for price breaks of support or resistance levels. It uses a simple moving average of lows to confirm a downside break and a moving average of highs to confirm an upside break. A minimum standard deviation condition is also required,…
This community post presents a strategy backtesting framework that uses an iWencai selection function to choose stocks and run minute-level simulations. That outlines a basic workflow for testing intraday rules on a filtered equity universe: define a stock…
