Chinese Stock Screen for Turnover, Three Down Sessions, and Convertible Bonds
Summary
This article describes a Chinese stock screen requiring turnover between 3% and 12%, three consecutive declining sessions, and a nonempty name for an outstanding convertible bond associated with the stock. The author frames the bond link as potentially relevant to share prices and uses the turnover and declining-price conditions as technical filters. It includes formula and Python examples intended to identify qualifying stocks, with the Python example querying stock history and convertible-bond data.
No performance results or backtest are reported. The article warns that the screen relies heavily on convertible-bond information and technical conditions while omitting fundamentals and industry characteristics; it suggests combining these inputs in a broader factor model. There are also implementation inconsistencies: the displayed formula's condition for three down days does not directly check three consecutive bearish candlesticks, and the Python example checks sequentially lower closes rather than sessions closing below their opens. Its stock-history logic also does not visibly calculate the stated turnover range. The idea is therefore a screening specification with caveats, not a validated strategy.
Key ideas
- The screen requires turnover from 3% through 12%, three declining sessions, and an associated outstanding convertible bond.
- The article interprets convertible-bond linkage and price behavior as possible stock-selection signals.
- Its examples do not consistently implement the stated turnover and consecutive down-session criteria.
- No backtest or performance evidence is provided.
- The author identifies missing fundamentals and industry context as limitations and suggests a broader multi-factor approach.
