22 ready-made A-share screening strategies

1. Ready-made strategy vs writing your own expression

import requests

BASE = "https://api.ashareapi.com/v1"
H = {"Authorization": "Bearer ct-your-key"}

r = requests.get(f"{BASE}/screen",
                 params={"preset": "LowPE", "orderby": "PE_TTM", "limit": 5},
                 headers=H, timeout=30)
body = r.json()
print(body["ok"], body["elapsed_ms"])
for row in body["structured"]:
    print(row)

Strategy names can be combined with parameters: `preset=LowPE --limit 20 --orderby PE_TTM --asc`. Names (the `preset` parameter) are case- and underscore-insensitive (`low_pe` = `LowPE` = `Low-PE`).

2. The 22 ready-made strategies in four groups

Grouped by "what the investor is looking for" — easier to remember than alphabetically:

2.1 Valuation (finding cheap names, 7)

2.2 Profitability quality (finding real earners, 6)

2.3 Technical (3)

2.4 Money flow and institutions (5)

3. Live results: what five strategies return (2026-09-29)

All below are real live responses (`limit=5`).

3.1 LowPE

Note: Jinke Property PE_TTM=0.36 is an extreme value needing a health check (its PE_Fwd is 356.56 — nearly 1000x apart in the same table). Being screened does not mean it is worth buying — see "Factor screening basics", sections 4-5.

3.2 HighDividendLowValuation

A combination of >10% yield and <15x PE is relatively rare — which is why the double-low screen attracts attention.

3.3 HighROE

Note: ROE above 80% is an extreme value, usually paired with high leverage or non-recurring items — always check `ROECut` and `DebtEquityRatio`.

3.4 PEG

Watch out here: profit YoY of 415,612% or 71,528% means the base was near zero last year, so growth loses meaning. Always look at the absolute profit alongside PEG.

3.5 HighDividend

A live `preset=HighDividend --limit 10` returned top yields around 13-14% (e.g. 14.30% / 13.29% / 13.19%).

Note: yield = dividend per share / price, so a falling price inflates yield. High yield is not automatically good — check earnings and cash flow.

4. Three cautions

• A strategy is a starting point, not a conclusion — it narrows 5,000 names to dozens; judgement still applies (no buy/sell advice here)
• Extremes require a health check — all four strategies above returned extremes (PE 0.36 / ROE 95% / growth 415,612%); see "Factor screening basics"
• Mixing technical and fundamental strategies needs care — one reads price patterns, the other financials; combined they may cancel out

5. Parameter reference

`date` is the backtest key: pass a historical date to screen with that day factor values.
