To run this back-test accurately I need a bit more detail about the universe you have in mind and how you want the daily trading-volume screen applied: 1. Market universe • All U.S. listed stocks? • A specific index constituent list (e.g., Russell 3000, S&P 500, etc.)? • Another market (e.g., Europe, Asia)? 2. Ranking source & frequency • Use each day’s end-of-day consolidated volume to rank? • OK to exclude very illiquid penny stocks priced below, say, USD 1? (avoids survivorship-bias “shells”) 3. Rebalance mechanics • Buy at the next day’s open and sell at that day’s close (i.e., a one-day holding period)? • Equal-weight position sizing? (default) • Do you want to include trading costs or slippage? 4. Practical limits Running a daily 500-stock equal-weight portfolio over several years is feasible, but the data pull is large. If you’d prefer a quicker approximate answer, we can: • Limit the universe (e.g., top 1 000 tickers by average turnover) • Or test the concept on representative ETFs/indices first.
