Screening Small-Cap Robot Stocks with Weekly MACD
Summary
The document proposes a Chinese equity screening rule combining daily price amplitude above 1%, membership in a robotics concept group, circulating market capitalization below 10 billion yuan, and weekly MACD above zero. It frames the screen as a blend of price activity, thematic exposure, company size, and a longer-horizon momentum signal. It also suggests considering financial performance and growth prospects after the initial filter.
The article outlines risks including dependence on technical signals, exposure to volatile stocks, and sensitivity to market cycles. It recommends adding other indicators, assessing company and industry growth, and adapting the screen to changing conditions. Formula and Python examples are supplied as implementation references, but no backtest results, return statistics, or validation procedure are reported. The proposed rules are therefore a screening idea, not evidence of a profitable strategy; data definitions and indicator frequencies would need careful checking in an actual implementation.
Key ideas
- The screen combines price amplitude, a robotics theme, a market capitalization ceiling, and weekly MACD above zero.
- The article proposes adding financial strength and growth assessment to the initial technical and thematic filter.
- It identifies technical-signal dependence, high volatility, and market-cycle shifts as risks.
- The provided formulas and code are examples, with no reported backtest or performance evidence.
