Screening Chinese Equities with a Morning Star and Moving Average Trend Filter

Summary

This Chinese-language article describes a short-term A-share screening rule based on price action and trend. It selects stocks with an amplitude above 1, a morning-star pattern, and a 20-day moving average above the 120-day moving average. The article also includes a reference implementation that checks a recent seven-day candle pattern, RSI and MACD conditions, turnover, and market capitalization; its code details do not perfectly match the headline rule, so the precise screening specification is ambiguous.

The article gives no backtest results or measured performance. It cautions that the screen relies mainly on technical indicators and does not assess company fundamentals, and that omitting liquidity checks can leave low-volume stocks that are difficult to trade. It suggests adding fundamental and volume measures and adapting moving-average choices to market or industry conditions. These are proposed refinements rather than validated improvements, and the document does not establish that the screening rules predict returns.

Key ideas

• The headline screen combines price amplitude, a morning-star pattern, and a rising moving-average relationship.
• The article’s code adds RSI, MACD, turnover, and market-capitalization conditions, creating some ambiguity about the exact rule.
• The author identifies weak fundamental analysis and potential liquidity problems as limitations.
• No backtest or performance evidence is provided.
