Chinese Stock Screening with Morning Star and Main-Force Control Signals
Summary
This post describes a Chinese equity selection rule that combines an amplitude threshold, a morning-star style candlestick condition, and an estimate of prior-day dominant capital control. The accompanying implementation sketch adds moving-average alignment and MACD checks to identify a bullish reversal pattern, then filters stocks using turnover-related data as a proxy for concentrated trading activity.
The post frames the method as a blend of technical analysis and money-flow interpretation, and provides indicator and Python examples. It gives no backtest, returns, or evidence that the proxy reliably identifies institutional control. It also acknowledges that the approach gives limited attention to company fundamentals and may produce a narrow candidate set. Industry and fundamental checks are suggested as additions, but their effect is not evaluated.
Key ideas
- The proposed screen pairs a morning-star reversal pattern with an amplitude filter and prior-day capital-control signal.
- The code sketch also uses moving averages and MACD as conditions for the candlestick setup.
- Turnover-derived calculations serve as a rough proxy for dominant capital control, without validation in the post.
- The method has no reported performance test and may exclude useful stocks or overlook fundamentals.
