comment How do I backtest a convertible bond arbitrage strategy in R/Matlab?
Does it matter what security generates the price? I have only used the backtest in R, but any of these should let you generate portfolios along with a periodicity and condition for portfolio entry/exit.

comment Is Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) coherent?
@chang -- Good catch! You're right. I read too quickly and misinterpreted discrete $R$ as $R$ in a finite set, which would require infimum.

comment What is the unit of the Distance to Default measure?
@balteo -- I don't know your data source, but I expect that it should be on an annual basis, because this is how firms report debt liabilities (i.e., they report debt liabilities due in the next year).

comment Calculate Enterprise Value from Pro Forma Financial Statements
Thanks for the question, but it's a bit off-topic here. Please check out the FAQ for what is considered in-scope. This forum prefers to stay focused on quantitative techniques applied to finance; your question is more of a traditional, cash-flow analysis question.
