Screening Robot-Themed Small-Cap Stocks with a Weekly Moving-Average Cross
Summary
The document outlines a Chinese-equity screen combining daily amplitude above 1%, a robot-industry classification, circulating market capitalization below 10 billion yuan, and a weekly five-period moving average crossing above the ten-period average. It interprets the moving-average signal as evidence of an upward trend and gives illustrative formula and Python-style implementation references, followed by a proposed extension that considers company fundamentals, industry prospects, investor sentiment, and capital flows.
No backtest results or performance evidence are provided. The discussion itself flags the screen’s narrow factor set, omission of company and industry risks, and dependence on historical data. It also notes that the sample implementation may need adjustment to match an intended strategy. The screen is therefore a candidate selection rule, not evidence of a validated trading system; portfolio concentration and real-world effectiveness remain unresolved.
Key ideas
- The screen combines high amplitude, robot-sector membership, a circulating-capitalization limit, and a weekly moving-average crossover.
- The crossover is used as a trend filter, but the document provides no performance results to validate it.
- The proposed improvements add fundamental, industry, sentiment, and capital-flow analysis.
- A narrow screen may lead to concentrated holdings and may not generalize beyond historical data.
