The strategy of buying the top 500 stocks by daily trading volume and holding them for one day from 2022 to 2025 yielded a 6.98% compound annual growth rate, with a maximum drawdown of 15.59% recorded during the backtest period. While the approach demonstrated steady growth, the mid-2023 downturn emphasizes the necessity of risk management in high-volume trading strategies.
