Trading assumptions • Entry price: same-day close or next-day open? • Exit price after the 1-day holding period: next-day close or open? • Transaction costs/slippage to apply per trade (if any). 4. Benchmark (optional) • Would you like results versus, say, the S&P 500 or a broad equal-weight index? Once I have these details I can set up the retrieval and run the back-test.
