Screening Stocks by Intraday Flow, Price Range, and Dividend Payout

Summary

This Chinese stock-selection note describes a screen combining three conditions: a price range above 1%, net buying by large orders in the afternoon, and a 2019 dividend payout ratio above 25%. It presents the conditions as a mix of trading activity and a historical dividend measure, and includes a sample formula and Python-style implementation reference. The note does not report a backtest, performance figures, or evidence that the screen predicts returns.

The author cautions that the screen omits broader company fundamentals and market direction. A single year’s payout measure does not establish durable earnings or dividend capacity, while price range and order flow can reflect short-lived activity. Suggested extensions include reviewing financial statements and market or industry conditions alongside technical signals. The implementation details also depend on the data provider’s field definitions and calculations, so the examples should not be treated as a fully validated, ready-to-run strategy.

Key ideas
