Please, Please add this option. We can then use padding to keep our
system timers correct, and correctly screen our stocks for liquidity. This
type of padding (Vol = 0) is perhaps more typical of what data providers
supply.
My own backtests (using AB Padding), have caused some unusual results eg. A
small mining stock that suspended trading for 6 mths. Last trading day had
a >25 % runup in price. One of my backtests had daily Buy then profit stop
Sell for 6 mths. Fantastic returns but totally misleading (and yes easy to
spot and prevent, but that is not the point ). With Vol = 0 padding, this
stock would not have made it through my liquidity filters.
Please add this option, It will be greatly appreciated
