Selecting Stocks After Three Consecutive Limit-Up Sessions

Summary

The document proposes selecting securities with an amplitude threshold after three consecutive limit-up sessions, then ranking candidates by market attention or trading activity. The rationale is that repeated limit-ups indicate strong short-term buying interest, while amplitude is used to identify active names. The article’s suggested refinements include adding fundamental checks, improving risk controls, and assessing attention through more than one measure.

The article warns that this approach can chase short-lived enthusiasm, overlook long-term company quality, and expose users to elevated risk. It provides no test results. Its sample code also raises implementation questions: it uses a futures contract example, checks percentage changes against a fixed value, and sorts by volume rather than implementing the stated stock heat ranking. The written rule and sample therefore should not be treated as a validated or directly equivalent strategy; the threshold definitions and market-specific limit rules would need careful review.

Key ideas

• The proposed screen looks for amplitude above a threshold and three successive limit-up sessions.
• The selection logic treats repeated limit-ups as a sign of short-term buying interest.
• Ranking by attention is intended to prioritize widely followed securities.
• The article warns about sentiment chasing and missing fundamental risks.
• The sample code uses a futures example and a volume ranking, which do not clearly match the written stock screen.
