Chinese Stock Screening with Weekly MACD and Main-Force Control Signals
Summary
This note presents a Chinese equity screen using a daily price-range threshold, weekly MACD positioned above zero, and a prior-day indicator described as main-force control. It includes example formula logic and a Python-style sketch using market data and financial data. It does not report a backtest, selected stocks, or measured returns, so it provides a screening recipe rather than evidence of effectiveness.
The rationale is to combine price movement and trend strength with a measure intended to reflect dominant trading activity. The author cautions that technical and flow indicators alone leave out company fundamentals and macroeconomic conditions, and that apparent control by large traders may not indicate a durable opportunity. Suggested refinements include adding fundamental or sentiment data and checking the flow signal against measures such as turnover. The sample implementation leaves some indicator definitions and data handling unclear, so its conditions would need careful specification before evaluation.
Key ideas
- The screen combines a daily range threshold with weekly MACD and a prior-day trading-control signal.
- The examples translate the conditions into formula and Python-style logic, but provide no performance results.
- The author warns that technical and flow signals omit fundamental and macroeconomic influences.
- The main-force measure should be checked against other indicators such as capital flows and turnover.
