I made a version of this P123 microcap screen using gtr1. Matching the CAGR was easy. Matching the turnover required some extra steps.
community.portfolio123.com - Long term performance of popular academic factors in the microcap universeMicrocap screen results are very sensitive to transaction costs. For this screen, most of the picks have less than $500k dollar volume, and so 1% friction or higher might be expected.
