Chinese Stock Screen Using Moving-Average Convergence and Turnover
Summary
The document proposes screening Chinese stocks by combining three conditions: at least five moving averages are said to converge near the closing price, yesterday’s turnover is above its recent average, and the stock is from 2021. It presents moving averages as a way to assess trend and turnover as a possible clue to concentrated trading activity. It also suggests adding MACD and Bollinger Bands to assess trend and price variation, along with company and industry data.
No backtest, performance evidence, or precise threshold for how close the moving averages must be is provided. The explanation equates elevated turnover with “main-force control,” which is an interpretation rather than proof of who is trading. The description of comparing a sum of moving averages with the close is also underspecified. These gaps make the screen difficult to reproduce and its signals should not be treated as validated predictions.
Key ideas
- The proposed screen combines moving-average convergence, elevated prior-day turnover, and a 2021 stock filter.
- The document treats moving averages as trend information and turnover as a clue to concentrated trading.
- It suggests MACD, Bollinger Bands, and fundamental or industry data as possible additions.
- It provides no performance tests or precise convergence threshold, and elevated turnover does not establish trader identity.
