Screening Chinese Stocks for Volatility, Large-Order Flow, and Trend

Article SuperMind

Summary

This article describes a Chinese equity screen combining daily amplitude above a threshold, large-order net volume above a threshold on three consecutive days, and a rising MTI pattern intended to identify the start of a strong advance. The stated rationale is to find volatile stocks with active trading and upward momentum. It gives indicator conditions and illustrative platform code, but no backtest, performance evidence, or implementation validation.

The method has notable limitations. The formula uses the absolute value of large-order net volume, so it can accept large negative flows despite the prose describing positive flow. It also omits fundamental valuation and business quality, and the author acknowledges that technical signals alone may misclassify stocks. The suggested improvements are to add fundamental and other technical measures; no testing shows whether those changes help.

Key ideas

  • The screen combines high amplitude, consecutive large-order net-volume readings, and a rising MTI pattern.
  • The written rule calls for positive net volume, while the formula applies an absolute value and therefore also admits negative readings.
  • The article provides no evidence from historical or live performance tests.
  • It warns that technical-only selection omits fundamentals and may produce inaccurate picks.
