Screening Chinese Metaverse Stocks by Recent Leaderboard Activity and Returns

Summary

This short-term screening idea selects stocks classified in the metaverse theme during 2021, appearing on the previous day’s trading leaderboard, and showing a positive return over the prior ten days below 35 percent. The post presents leaderboard appearance as a sign of recent market activity and the return band as a way to identify stocks that have risen without exceeding the chosen ceiling. It gives both indicator-style screening conditions and a Python-oriented outline for checking historical prices.

The author notes that the rules omit fundamentals and other technical evidence, and that short-term price moves can reverse as sentiment and market conditions change. Suggested improvements include volume confirmation, valuation and profitability measures, and checks for volatility or liquidity. The document does not provide backtest results, trading rules for entries and exits, or evidence that leaderboard activity predicts future gains. Its time and theme filters also make the screen specific to the stated historical universe, while the sample implementation would require careful data validation.

Key ideas

• The screen focuses on metaverse-theme stocks identified for 2021.
• It requires appearance on the prior day’s trading leaderboard and a positive ten-day return below 35 percent.
• The post proposes volume, fundamental, liquidity, and volatility filters as possible refinements.
• Recent leaderboard activity and past returns are screening signals, not demonstrated predictors of future performance.
• The document provides no backtest or complete entry, exit, and risk-management plan.
