To run this back-test I’ll need a few extra details and a quick confirmation from you: 1. Stock universe • Would you like to use all U.S. listed common stocks (NYSE + NASDAQ + AMEX) or another universe (e.g., S&P 500 constituents)? 2. Weighting & rebalancing • Should the 500 names be equally weighted each day, with the portfolio rebalanced daily (i.e., sell yesterday’s basket at today’s close and buy today’s top-volume list at the same close)? 3. Transaction costs & slippage • Do you want to assume zero costs, or shall I include a round-trip cost (e.g., 5 bp per side)? 4. Data assumption • I’ll buy at each day’s close, hold overnight, and sell at the next day’s close unless you specify a different convention.
