To run this back-test rigorously I need to clarify a few practical details: 1. Market / universe • Which exchange(s) should the 500-stock selection be drawn from (e.g., all U.S. listed shares on NYSE + NASDAQ, or another market)? 2. Rebalancing mechanics • Do we form a new "Top-500-by-volume" portfolio at each day’s close and then exit it the following day’s close (i.e., 1-day holding period)? • Should we assume equal-weighted positions in the 500 names? 3. Transaction costs & slippage • Do we include commissions or bid-ask slippage? If so, please specify. 4. Benchmark or comparison metric (optional) • Would you like the results compared to a benchmark (e.g., S&P 500) or just absolute returns? With these details confirmed I can generate the data-retrieval plan and run the back-test.
