Universe • Which market or index should we scan each day for the “top-500-by-volume” list (e.g., all U.S. common stocks, S&P 1500 constituents, a specific exchange, etc.)? • Are ADRs, ETFs, and penny stocks to be included or excluded? 2.

Approximate the idea using a tradable proxy (e.g., an ETF that tracks the highest-volume U.S. equities). b. Build a custom basket—this is feasible, but we would need to retrieve and process large volumes of historical data for each day and ticker. That will take more steps and time.
