Descripción

I am currently testing a longer term strategy (multiple months of holding a portfolio) and I receive distorted results, mainly because of stock splits not being considered in paper trading.

I would love to see stock splits and dividends to be considered in paper trading since it would lead to a more realistic way to test a strategy live. Even though Alpaca is not mainly meant to be used for strategy developing it would be a nice feature to have.

Regarding alternatives, I am now manually tracking splits and dividends and factor them in before rebalancing my portfolio by resetting my paper trading account. This is not an ideal solution however as you can imagine.

Hopefully somebody finds my request useful, so it will be implemented soon. Thank you in advance!
