A-Share Screen Combining Price Range, Afternoon Flows, and Beverage Trade

Summary

This proposed Chinese equity screen combines three conditions: daily price range above 1%, positive afternoon large-order net inflow, and growth in beverage and alcohol imports and exports. The note interprets the range and order-flow measures as signs of price activity and market sentiment, while trade growth is intended to identify companies linked to a stronger beverage and alcohol sector. It outlines indicator formulas and sample data-processing logic, though the code also mixes company financial data with trade statistics.

No backtest results or performance evidence are provided. The note acknowledges that trade conditions and other macroeconomic changes may affect the signals, and that the method does not adequately account for company financial health or historical performance. It recommends adding company-specific and macroeconomic measures, then testing and revising the rules. The industry connection between national trade growth and an individual stock’s prospects is not established, so the screen should be treated as a hypothesis rather than a validated strategy.

Key ideas

• The screen combines a daily range threshold, positive afternoon large-order flows, and beverage and alcohol trade growth.
• The author treats price range and order flow as measures of activity and sentiment.
• The note offers formulas and example data logic but reports no backtest evidence.
• Macro conditions may affect the trade signal, while company financials and historical performance are underrepresented.
• The relationship between sector trade growth and individual stock returns remains untested.
