Screening Chinese Stocks by Turnover, Leaderboard Activity, and Limit-Ups
Summary
This note describes a Chinese A-share screen that requires turnover between 3% and 12%, appearance on the previous day’s trading leaderboard, and more than two limit-up sessions during the prior ten trading days. The author presents turnover and leaderboard inclusion as measures of liquidity and attention, while repeated limit-ups are treated as evidence of short-term strength. A formula-style condition and a Python example show how these filters can be combined and ranked by closing price.
The article offers no backtest, performance figures, or validation of the signals. It warns that the screen emphasizes recent price action and may select stocks whose repeated limit-ups reflect excessive rallies, while overlooking fundamentals and changing market conditions. It recommends combining the screen with industry, policy, technical, and fundamental analysis before assessing a stock. The described thresholds are screening choices, not evidence of a reliable or stable strategy.
Key ideas
- The screen combines a turnover band, prior-day leaderboard inclusion, and multiple recent limit-up sessions.
- Turnover and leaderboard appearance are used as proxies for liquidity and investor attention.
- Repeated limit-ups indicate recent strength in the article’s framing, but can also reflect an overheated move.
- The document provides screening examples but no empirical performance evidence.
- Fundamental, industry, and market context should inform any further evaluation.
