To run this back-test accurately I need a few extra details about how you’d like the daily portfolio constructed and evaluated: 1. Market universe • U.S. listed common stocks only, or a different market? • Should ETFs or ADRs be included/excluded? 2. Weighting scheme • Equal weight across the 500 names each day (typical), or volume-weighted / cap-weighted? 3. Execution assumptions • Buy at today’s close and sell at tomorrow’s close (close-to-close return), or open-to-close, etc.? • Any transaction-cost allowance? 4. Cash handling • Assume fully invested (no idle cash) with daily re-balancing? 5. Benchmark (optional) • Compare the strategy against SPY, an equal-weight universe benchmark, or leave benchmarking out? Once I have this information I can generate the trading signals and run the back-test from 2022-01-03 (first trading day of 2022) through today.
