Combining Moving Average Convergence, Leaderboard Activity, and Momentum

Summary

This Chinese equity screening idea combines three signals: at least five moving averages converging, appearance on the prior day's trading leaderboard, and a positive return below 35% over ten days. The stated interpretation is that converging averages may indicate aligned short- and long-term trends, leaderboard inclusion signals market attention, and bounded recent gains capture stocks with upward momentum without selecting the largest recent rises. The proposed final screen also mentions market capitalization above 10 billion yuan, a price-to-earnings ratio below 30, a bullish MACD crossover, and widening Bollinger Bands.

The post cautions that short-term signals can neglect long-term fundamentals and may fail to identify future winners. Its code is illustrative and does not clearly implement the described convergence test or all listed conditions. No backtest results or evidence of predictive value are supplied; the author suggests adding longer-period averages and fundamental and technical filters.

Key ideas

• The core screen combines moving-average convergence, prior-day leaderboard appearance, and bounded ten-day gains.
• The post interprets leaderboard appearance as a sign of market attention, not proof of positive information.
• Additional suggested filters include market capitalization, valuation, MACD, and Bollinger Bands.
• The example code and stated screen do not fully match, and no performance evidence is provided.
