The indicator tracks how often highs and lows meet conditions relative to an exponential moving average over a configurable lookback. It reports three values: a bullish count, a bearish count, and the absolute difference between those counts, each scaled as…
This Chinese stock-selection screen combines turnover between 3% and 12%, displayed best-bid volume greater than best-ask volume, and year-over-year growth in net profit attributable to the parent company above 20% and at or below 100%. The article frames…
This post describes a community redevelopment of VeighNa’s Arctic storage integration to work with ArcticDB. It explains the motivation: the earlier Arctic project no longer supported newer Python versions, while the maintained VeighNa integration was no…
This note describes a Chinese stock screen built around three conditions: a reported increase in position share above 5%, large-order net inflow during the afternoon, and a 2021 time filter. It interprets the first two as signs of buying pressure and…
This educational overview introduces common inputs for quantitative stock selection, beginning with simple and exponential moving averages, RSI, Bollinger Bands, MACD, moving-average crossovers, VWAP, and historical volatility. It describes their usual…
This research summary revisits the capital asset pricing model by splitting daily stock returns into open-to-close intraday returns and close-to-open overnight returns. It reports that, in the US sample, beta is negatively related to intraday returns but…
This exchange asks whether MACD components and a short-window swing-volatility feature used in model training and prediction contain future information. The response says these factors are calculated from historical data, implying that the indicators…
This brief market analysis divides the CSI 300’s post-circuit-breaker movement into phases shaped by valuation and changing earnings expectations. The summary describes an initial stabilization near a 12-times valuation, a re-rating toward 14 times as growth…
This research note proposes an equity factor based on how each stock’s intraday volume pattern differs from the market’s. It starts from the common U-shaped market volume profile and argues that a stock with unusually concentrated or uneven trading may have…
The document introduces stationarity and cointegration as the basis for pairs trading. It describes a stationary series as having a stable mean and variance, and presents a pair as cointegrated when the difference between their prices is stationary. Under…
This Chinese A-share screening idea combines turnover between 3% and 12%, outside volume divided by inside volume above 1.3, and year-over-year growth in net profit attributable to parent-company shareholders above 20% and no more than 100%. The rationale is…
The document describes a dashboard that compares a live market spread with its recent rolling history. It calculates the rolling mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum, and a Z-score, then labels conditions as compressed, normal, or unusually wide.…
This research summary compares common ways to divide macroeconomic cycles: the growth-and-inflation framework often called the Merrill Lynch clock, monetary-credit cycles, and monetary-economic cycles. It argues that these approaches revolve around money,…
This discussion explains why assets under management and quantitative strategy returns may be related without having a simple linear relationship. It argues that capacity depends on the strategy: too little capital may prevent a portfolio from meeting its…
This stock screen combines a buying-activity condition, year-over-year growth in net profit attributable to parent shareholders, and a revenue comparison across two reported years. The article initially specifies profit growth above 20% and up to 100%, with…
This research summary describes factors built from intraday snapshot data to measure the relationship between stock prices and trading volume. The reported premise is that price-volume divergence may precede higher returns whether prices are rising or…
This note outlines two ways to include industry or sector membership in stock factor research. One approach treats each industry or sector as a grouping variable and compares the cumulative returns of its constituent stocks, effectively studying group…
This notebook demonstrates how to load price and volume data, add a broad set of technical analysis features with a Python library, and plot selected indicators alongside market prices. Its volatility examples include Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, and…
This indicator generalizes the conventional fractal by letting users choose how many bars must appear on each side of a price extreme. The left and right counts can differ, so an asymmetric configuration can require more historical confirmation on one side…
This survey introduces supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised, and reinforcement learning, then outlines common methods such as neural networks, support vector machines, nearest neighbors, clustering, and Bayesian networks. It places machine learning in…

This article explains a holdings-based panel regression approach to evaluating mutual fund performance. With stock fixed effects, a conventional performance measure can be separated into time-series ability (TSA), reflecting whether changing portfolio…
The document explains an indicator that estimates buying and selling pressure by dividing each bar’s volume according to where its close falls between the high and low. It subtracts estimated selling volume from estimated buying volume, then displays the…
This review examines whether published indicators of future mutual-fund performance retain their predictive power outside the periods in which they were studied. It compares high-minus-low portfolio alpha spreads and cross-sectional regression slopes across…
