A Chinese Stock Screen Using Turnover, Order Flow, and Weekly Moving Averages

Summary

This Chinese A-share screening idea combines three signals: daily turnover between 3% and 12%, the product of the day’s price change and net large-order flow above zero, and a weekly five-period moving average crossing above the ten-period average. The proposed interpretation is that turnover filters for activity, the price-change and order-flow condition reflects market direction alongside capital flows, and the moving-average crossover indicates improving short-term trend.

The article offers alternative formula and Python references, but they do not match the stated screen in every detail: one formula uses different price-change bounds, and the Python example checks moving-average levels rather than explicitly verifying a crossover or weekly data. It reports no backtest or performance evidence. The author notes that the screen omits comprehensive fundamental analysis and may select weak businesses; additional valuation, profitability, and market context are suggested as possible filters.

Key ideas

• The screen selects stocks with daily turnover between 3% and 12%.
• It requires the product of daily price change and net large-order flow to be positive.
• A weekly five-period moving average above the ten-period average supplies a trend filter.
• The implementation examples contain differences from the stated criteria, and no performance results are provided.
• The article identifies missing fundamental analysis as a key limitation.
