Chinese Stock Screening with Relative Volume, Opening Gap, and Moving Averages
Summary
This Chinese stock-screening note combines three filters: rank stocks by volume ratio and retain the top 100, require the opening price to be less than 6% above the previous close, and require the 20-day moving average to exceed the 120-day moving average. The stated volume ratio is current-day volume divided by the average volume over the prior five days. The moving-average comparison is intended to identify stocks with a stronger shorter-term trend, while the opening-gap ceiling screens out large opening advances.
The document gives a rationale for each condition but provides no performance data, backtest, or evidence that the filters improve returns. It also acknowledges that volume ratio, opening moves, and moving averages can be affected by sentiment, news, and short-term price fluctuations. Additional indicators and fundamental measures are suggested as possible refinements, without specifying how to test or combine them.
Key ideas
- The screen ranks stocks by volume ratio and keeps the top 100.
- It excludes stocks whose opening price is at least 6% above the previous close.
- It requires the 20-day moving average to be above the 120-day moving average.
- The note offers qualitative rationales but reports no backtest or measured results.
- Market conditions and short-term volatility can make these filters unreliable.
