Chinese Stock Screening with RSI, Bollinger Midline, and Moving Average Crosses

Summary

This stock selection method combines a daily increase in reported position holdings above 5% with three technical signals: RSI, the Bollinger middle line, and a moving average crossover. Its final rules narrow RSI to between 50 and 70, look for price interaction with the Bollinger middle line, and require a short-term average to cross above a longer-term average. The article frames these conditions as signs of improving price direction and uses them to rank candidate stocks.

The document explains the indicators in broad terms and includes example code, but it provides no backtest, performance data, or detailed definitions for the position-holding measure and the Bollinger signal. Its descriptions also differ somewhat from the code’s filtering conditions, so implementation would require clarification. The author notes that technical signals can miss opportunities and fail when market sentiment shifts; combining the screen with other methods or adjusting thresholds is suggested, without evidence that such changes improve results.

Key ideas

• The screen requires reported position holdings to increase by more than 5% in a day.
• It combines RSI, the Bollinger middle line, and a moving average crossover as technical filters.
• The final rules constrain RSI to a range between 50 and 70 and use short- and long-term moving averages.
• The article warns that technical analysis and market sentiment make outcomes uncertain.
• No historical performance evidence is provided.
