It had a reverse split of 1:10. Nothing to do with any article. If you read the article closely, the ETFs have negligible exposure to NXTD (not suprising - it's a microcap).

Why is what? You are not making any sense. From what I can tell with your other posts, nobody can understand you. Please take some English lessons before posting again.

Solid statement.

Depends what the issue price is. Name the stock.

So your trading system seems to be: 1. Go long on a stock in a severe downtrend ($31->$1.80 in two years) 2. Don't use a stop loss 3. Don't monitor the trade at all 4. Wait 6+ months You should be concerned when any stock gets a "Q" suffix. $3.8 billion in debt, $300M cash, suspended...

Come back and play when you have a trading plan.

I backtest on the Russell 3000 historical constituents - over 10000 securities - this takes a few GB of RAM. With AB Pro's 64 bit capabilities, this keeps everything in a RAM cache, making subsequent backtests very quick. I subscribe to Norgate like Metamega for those constituents.

The cost difference is negligible ($60) and the Pro version gives you lots of multithreading and 64 bit capability. If you are using large data sets you'll want both of these. You'll spend more on data than the software - it's a bargain.

There's plenty of liquid OTC stocks (not just OTCBB). What makes you think that US OTC stocks are exempt from UK inheritance tax? Any authoritative links? Are you expecting to die any time soon? If not, why an inheritance tax influence your trading decisions?

I know this technique! It's called the FIGJAM profit trader!

You don't need it until you need it. Similar to a backup Internet connection, a hard drive backup etc. How much you want to engineer your system to prevent/recovery from faults is up to you (and your wallet).

In the micro-cap area, stocks change sectors quite often as their business interests change. In the higher cap area, you can have acquisition companies (highly funded shells) that take over other companies. But you just have reclassifications that occur too... eg. NASDAQ:ACET (Aceto) went from...

You need to incorporate data on delisted securities. For sector-based approaches it is more difficult - both delisted stocks and stocks that have previously changed sectors.

I have created a few equal-weighted indexes for my own trend following systems. Of paramount importance is survivor bias. Backtesting/simulations based upon today's data is forward-looking.

Sounds like you need to subscribe to a data vendor. Brokers never do data quite right and they don't care (i.e. not core business)

Unfortunately the response from TOS is a POS. Surely they would be storing the data points and reporting on that. If the exchange is reporting it wrong and they are using that, they need to show why it is the exchange at fault and detail what steps they are doing to ensure that the data they...

Options trade on multiple exchanges - one might be reporting just a single exchange (eg CBOE), others a couple of exchanges, and others the "Tape" - i.e. all trades reported from all venues including ECNs. Certain trade condition codes might contribute to volume on one platform and not on...

I've heard there is a casino or two in Las Vegas too. Why don't you call them up and ask?
