Data-Planet processes Xignite historical stock data using the SplitOnly method of adjustment, which adjusts historical prices that preceded a split to be consistent with post-split prices. Split adjustments are performed by applying a Split Factor, which is the ratio of old shares for each new share received. Historical split-adjusted prices are calculated by multiplying the actual historical price by the Split Factor.
Certain stock trading systems use the daily high reached by a stock as part of their method of predicting future stock movements. If a trader is using a system or market timing device that relies on the daily high of a stock, it is important to determine whether the daily high refers only to trading during traditional exchange trading hours, or also takes pre-market and after-hours trading into account.
