A Chinese Equity Screen Using Volatility, Valuation, and Listing Filters
Summary
The document proposes screening for stocks with daily amplitude above one percent, codes beginning with 60, and specified positive price-to-earnings and price-to-book ranges. It also describes a Shenzhen main-board filter and sorting candidates by popularity. The stated rationale is to combine higher price movement with valuation limits, while the risk discussion notes that elevated volatility and narrow filters can increase risk or reduce the available universe.
No historical performance, comparison group, or evidence that these thresholds identify undervalued stocks is provided. There is also a notable classification inconsistency: the post associates 60-prefixed codes with Shenzhen main-board stocks, although that code prefix is generally associated with Shanghai-listed shares. The listed exchange and sector conditions should therefore be checked against the intended market. The filters are presented as selection criteria, not as a fully specified entry, exit, or portfolio-management strategy.
Key ideas
- The screen combines daily amplitude, a stock-code prefix, and positive valuation ranges.
- The post proposes popularity ranking but does not define a complete trading strategy.
- Higher amplitude may increase risk, while multiple filters can shrink the candidate pool.
- The stated relationship between 60-prefixed codes and the Shenzhen main board needs verification.
- No performance evidence supports the chosen thresholds.
