Screening Chinese Stocks by Price, Daily Range, and Turnover

Summary

This stock screen selects shares priced at or below 12 yuan, with a stated price range measure above 1 and turnover between 2% and 9%. It is framed as a way to find relatively active, lower-priced Chinese stocks by combining a volatility-related condition with trading activity and a price ceiling. The document gives corresponding indicator logic and a Python example outline for retrieving listed-share data and filtering by turnover and closing price.

The article offers no historical test, benchmark, transaction-cost analysis, or evidence that the screen produces positive returns. It also does not define the range threshold’s units consistently: the formula expresses the high-to-low move as a percentage, while the prose only says it must exceed 1. The discussion itself warns that share price alone is not a measure of value and that lower-priced stocks can carry elevated risk. It suggests adding technical and valuation measures, but does not specify or evaluate a combined strategy.

Key ideas

• The screen combines a price ceiling with range and turnover filters.
• The stated turnover band is above 2% and no more than 9%.
• The example also requires a closing price no greater than 12 yuan.
• The document provides no backtest or evidence of profitability.
• It cautions that price alone does not establish a stock’s value or quality.
