Hello Tomasz,
Thankyou for your reply.
Maybe I wasn't too clear with my words but what you suggest and from
my understanding, I would be able to backtest only the "latest" top
100.
I would like to find the top 100 for each and every month in the past
five years or so. They would vary as would the actual top 100 stock
do.
ie: if I run a scan with the timeframe on monthly with C * V and rank
the highest to lowest, I would like the highest 100. Doing this for
every month for backtesting.
Thanks again.
