No.
The Nasdaq has been subject to high turnover.

No, it is not realistic (especially with the Nasdaq).
Survivor bias is not that simple - it works both ways - successful
stocks disapear due to acquistions etc.
Is there any way to have the real Nasdaq100, with inputs and
> outputs??
Yes.
There is a list of partial resources, for managing delisted stocks,
at the UKB - please search there for "delisted".
You will also find some past discussion in this forum under "survivor
bias" or delisted - I also found some good discussion at the Elite
Traders forum using the same search.
