Screening Stocks by Reversal Pattern and Auction Amount
Summary
This Chinese equity screen combines a daily price-range condition, a reversal pattern, and opening-auction activity. It first filters for stocks whose high-to-low range exceeds one percent, then looks for a reversal, and finally ranks qualifying names by today’s auction amount, selecting the top five. The article also sketches formula and Python implementations of the screening logic.
The stated rationale is to find active stocks showing a possible change in price direction. However, the document does not provide backtest results, define the reversal pattern consistently across its formula and Python example, or show how the signal is traded. It warns that high trading activity does not establish fundamental value and suggests adding valuation or growth considerations. The screen is therefore a candidate-generation method, not evidence of a profitable strategy.
Key ideas
- The screen requires a high-to-low price range greater than one percent.
- It combines the range filter with a reversal-pattern condition.
- Eligible stocks are ranked by current auction amount, with the top five selected.
- The article offers formula and Python sketches but does not report strategy performance.
- High auction activity can identify liquid or active names without establishing their fundamental value.
