Screening Stocks for Volatility, Price Control, and Moving-Average Alignment
Summary
This post describes a Chinese equity screening rule that combines three technical conditions: daily amplitude above a threshold, a prior-day measure labeled main-force control, and several moving averages crossing or aligning. It presents the screen as a way to find volatile stocks with buying interest and a potentially improving technical setup. It also gives example indicator and Python implementations, including a five-day price comparison and moving-average calculations.
The post offers no backtest, performance statistics, or evidence that the screen predicts returns. Its own risk discussion warns that the rule can overemphasize technical signals and overlook company fundamentals. The control measure and the prose description do not establish that institutional buying is actually being observed, and the sample implementation may not exactly match the stated condition of five overlapping averages. The suggested additions of valuation, company, or other technical measures are proposals rather than tested improvements.
Key ideas
- The screen combines price amplitude, a prior-day control proxy, and moving-average relationships.
- The post frames the conditions as a way to find volatile stocks with possible buying interest.
- Example implementations use historical price, volume, and moving-average data.
- No backtest or return evidence is supplied, and technical screening may omit fundamental risks.
