I'd like to do backtesting against a dynamic watch list during 2006 to 2010 period. I'm not sure how does QuantShare handle the list. Is QS able to generate a list of symbols base on historical conditions (from 2006 to 2010) and perform simulation against the historical dynamic list?
Many Thanks.

The backtest will be performed against the current symbols that are available in the dynamic watchlist.

Best Answer
You just add all stocks. Download or import historical EPS data then use "GetData" function to add a trading rule to buy only stocks with EPS increase > 20%.

Example of how to use the "GetData" function:

The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
