To run this back-test I need to pin down a couple of implementation details that aren’t fully specified yet: 1. Market / universe • Do you want the entire U.S. listed universe (NYSE + NASDAQ + AMEX), or a specific index constituent set (e.g., S&P 500), or another market altogether? 2. Trade-price convention • Should we enter at the same-day close and exit at next-day close (standard for volume-ranked strategies)? 3.
