Continuous Reliability
Posted: Thu Apr 28, 2005 9:13 pm
I have been backtesting stocks for a while and would like to start looking at futures. I have been holding off on this because I worry that the testing may look OK but real life is going to be much different because of inaccuracies caused by continuous contract gymnastics, something I am obviously unfamiliar with coming from the stock world (though don't get me started about splits!). I am wondering how legitimate this concern is, or if am I just not sufficiently knowledgeable/experienced on this topic?
