Stock Screening with Dividend Payout, Order Flow, and Price Range
Summary
This note proposes a Chinese equity screen combining a historical dividend payout ratio above 25%, a ranking by large-order net volume, and an intraday price range greater than 1. Its rationale is to mix a short-term price and order-flow signal with a measure of shareholder distributions. Sample screening references are included, although the conditions and fields differ across the prose and code examples, so they do not specify one consistent implementation.
The article offers no backtest or other performance evidence. It warns that a high payout ratio alone may not capture valuation, profitability, growth prospects, or whether dividends can be sustained. The proposed refinements include reviewing fundamentals, industry conditions, and market themes, and possibly using machine-learning methods; none are tested in the document. Readers should treat the screen as an unvalidated set of selection ideas, with the historical payout measure and mismatched examples requiring particular care before implementation.
Key ideas
- The proposed screen combines a dividend payout ratio above 25%, large-order net-volume ranking, and price range above 1.
- It joins shareholder distributions with short-term trading and price activity signals.
- The document provides no evidence that the screen has been backtested successfully.
- A high historical payout ratio does not establish that dividends are sustainable.
- The prose and code examples use inconsistent conditions, leaving implementation details unclear.
