Screening Shanghai-Listed Stocks by Turnover and Daily Gains

Summary

The proposed screen looks for main-board Chinese stocks with codes beginning with 60, turnover between 3% and 12%, and a daily gain greater than 1%. The article frames the gain filter as a way to identify stocks with recent strength. It also includes a code example intended to retrieve stock listings and daily prices, although the shown implementation does not clearly apply the turnover range and its main-board check appears to compare the word for that market with a stock code.

The author cautions that this simple selection rule omits valuation, growth prospects, and risk controls, and may fail in unusual market conditions. Suggested refinements include adding fundamental, technical, and fund-flow measures and using dynamic stop levels. The document supplies no backtest or performance data, so the screen should be treated as a preliminary filter rather than evidence of a profitable strategy.

Key ideas

• The screen selects main-board stocks with codes beginning with 60 and daily gains above 1%.
• Its stated turnover filter is between 3% and 12%.
• The example implementation does not clearly enforce all the stated selection conditions.
• The author identifies missing valuation, growth, and risk-control considerations.
• The document provides no backtest or results supporting profitability.
