VXX O/H/L/C Backtest

$59.00

Description

VXX is a long volatility fund offered by Barclays that is based on short-term VIX futures (1st & 2nd month).   VXX started trading in January 2009 so there is no market price data available before that (e.g., during the 2008/2009 market crash).  This simulation shows VXX’s simulated open, high, low, and end-of-day closing price from March 2004 through October 2013 and end-of-day closing values up through the end of the most recent quarter.  See this table for specific dates.  The product also includes a sheet “VXX-Web” that includes the once publicly available O/H/L/C trade data for VXX that goes back to its inception in 2009, prior to the VXX –> VXXB –> VXX transitions when the original VXX note matured.
