To assess a daily-rebalanced portfolio of the top 500 most liquid U.S. equities, a structured approach is required. This includes compiling tradable tickers since January 3, 2022, ranking them by daily dollar or share volume, assigning equal weights to the top 500, and tracking performance through daily profit/loss metrics. Current limitations in backtesting tools necessitate constructing a synthetic portfolio index, which aggregates price data for the top holdings. Key decisions remain on defining the universe (e.g., Russell 3000 vs. broader markets), volume metrics (share vs. dollar), execution timing, and risk controls. Finalizing these parameters will enable accurate simulation of the strategy’s historical viability.
