A-Share Screen Using Moving Averages and Intraday Fund Flows
Summary
The document outlines a Chinese A-share stock screen combining three conditions: the 20-day moving average is above the 120-day average, afternoon large-order net flow is positive, and the reported increase in holdings for the day exceeds 5%. The accompanying explanation interprets the moving-average relationship as recent price strength and the flow measures as signs of buying interest. The proposed combination is intended to find stocks with both upward price alignment and recent investor demand.
The document warns that the shorter-term trend may conflict with a longer-term decline, creating a risk of buying an overvalued stock. It suggests testing longer moving averages or adding other indicators, but supplies no backtest results, implementation details for the flow and holdings measures, or evidence that the screen predicts returns. The code excerpt is incomplete, so the screening procedure cannot be reproduced from the text alone.
Key ideas
- The screen requires the 20-day moving average to exceed the 120-day moving average.
- It also selects for positive afternoon large-order net flow and a daily holdings increase above 5%.
- The author presents these filters as signs of price strength and investor demand.
- A short-term rise may occur during a broader decline, and the document provides no performance evidence.
