Stock Screening with Moving-Average Crossovers and Positive Returns

Article SuperMind

Summary

This Chinese-language post describes a stock-selection screen that combines a price-amplitude threshold, three simultaneous moving-average crossovers, and a positive return on the current day. The stated rationale is to find stocks showing short-term strength, with the crossover conditions intended to signal upward momentum. It also suggests ranking selected stocks by trading value and taking a limited number of candidates.

The post acknowledges that the method relies heavily on technical indicators, omits company fundamentals, and may misread a one-day gain as evidence of lasting strength. It recommends adding fundamental measures and broader analysis of price history and company performance. The examples provide formulas and illustrative code, but no backtest results or evidence that the screen is profitable. The amplitude condition’s scale is unclear, and the described crossover relationships and code inputs are not fully consistent, so implementation details require careful validation before use.

Key ideas

  • The screen combines an amplitude threshold, multiple moving-average crossovers, and positive daily return.
  • The intended signal is short-term price strength rather than a fully specified trading strategy.
  • The post identifies technical-indicator dependence and missing fundamental analysis as limitations.
  • It provides no performance evidence, and some formula and code details are ambiguous or inconsistent.
