MACD and Auction Turnover Filters for Chinese Stock Selection

Summary

This post describes a Chinese stock screen that selects shares with MACD above zero and ranks candidates by reported market attention, while also requiring the prior session’s 9:15 auction matching price to be at the lower price limit. Screening is intended to run after each trading day’s close. The article gives a MACD formula reference and sample filtering logic, but does not provide a defined entry, exit, or portfolio allocation rule.

The rationale is that positive MACD may indicate a short-term trend, attention may reflect investor interest, and a limit-down auction condition may flag risk or uncertainty. These are proposed interpretations, not demonstrated findings: no backtest, performance statistics, or validation is supplied. The author cautions that technical indicators can omit fundamentals, overlooked stocks may be excluded, the sample may be statistically weak, and the auction condition misses other causes of price declines. Suggested extensions include adding indicators, fundamental measures, and sector or theme information.

Key ideas

• The screen requires MACD above zero and a prior-session auction match at the lower price limit.
• Candidates are ranked by reported stock attention, and screening is performed after the close.
• The post presents a technical rationale but supplies no backtest results or performance evidence.
• Its stated limitations include indicator dependence, possible sample bias, and omission of fundamental and broader market factors.
• Potential refinements include additional indicators, fundamental filters, and sector or theme context.
