Stock Split Adjustment Wizard: Specify Fields

 

The Stock Split Adjustment Wizard allows you to adjust historical price and volume data when a stock split occurs. Following a stock split, previous price and volume data values are adjusted to match the new valuation. This allows the price and volume information to maintain a consistent scale with new data. This page allows you to specify which fields should be adjusted as price data and which fields should be adjusted as volume data.

Specifying the Data Fields to Adjust as Price Data

By default, TradingSolutions will select to adjust fields named "Close", "High", "Low", and "Open" to be adjusted as price data. If you would like to include other fields, select them from the list of other fields in the data series and press the Adjust as Price Data button. If you would prefer not to adjust any of these fields, select them from the list of fields to adjust as price data, and press the Remove from Adjustment button associated with that list.

 

Price data is adjusted by dividing the value of the field by the size of the split.

Specifying the Data Fields to Adjust as Volume Data

By default, TradingSolutions will select to adjust any field named "Volume" to be adjusted as volume data. If you would like to include other fields, select them from the list of other fields in the data series and press the Adjust as Volume Data button. If you would prefer not to adjust this field, select it from the list of fields to adjust as volume data, and press the Remove from Adjustment button associated with that list.

 

Volume data is adjusted by multiplying the value of the field by the size of the split.

What Do I Do Next?

When you have selected the fields you would like to have adjusted, press the Finish button to begin the adjustment. If you would like to exit the wizard without performing any split adjustment at this time, press the Cancel button. If you would like to change the type or date of the adjustment being performed, press the Back button to return to the Information page.
