To run this back-test rigorously I need to settle a few practical details that aren’t specified yet. Please let me know (or confirm my suggested defaults) so I can proceed without interruption: 1. Universe • Default suggestion: all U.S. exchange-listed common stocks (no ETFs, no OTC). 2. Ranking & rebalancing schedule • Default suggestion: every trading day after the close we rank the universe by that day’s total dollar volume (shares × close). The portfolio for day t + 1 is the equal-weighted top 500 names from the ranking on day t. 3. Entry & exit prices • Buy at next day’s open, exit at that same day’s close (i.e., 1-day holding period). 4. Weighting • Default suggestion: equal weight across the 500 names each day. 5. Transaction costs / slippage • Default suggestion: ignore for the initial pass; we can layer them in later. 6. . If these defaults are acceptable, just let me know and I’ll launch the data-gathering and back-test run. If you’d like any tweaks (different universe, weighting, execution assumptions, etc.), please specify.
