📚

Portfolio Mode

Combine multiple strategies into a single portfolio session. Analyze combined drawdown, session-level interactions, and correlation.

🔍

Smart Trade Extraction

Pulls every closed trade with timestamps, P/L, lot size, symbol, and session — including swap and commission accuracy.

Backtest Period Science

How long should your backtest actually be?

The Analysis tab uses regime detection and academic research to calculate the optimal backtest period for your strategy. Then projects forward equity paths with full confidence intervals — so you see the realistic range, not just the lucky one.

🗓️

Optimal Period Calculation

Algorithm-driven recommendation based on volatility regimes, sample-size sufficiency, and strategy turnover. No more arbitrary "use 5 years" rules.

📈

Forward Equity Projection

1,000+ simulated paths with median, 50th, 95th, and 99th percentile equity curves. See your realistic best, worst, and median outcomes.

🔄

Regime Change Detection

Identifies 3σ structural breaks in your equity curve where market behavior shifted. Critical for knowing if old performance still applies.

🎯

Walk-Forward Guidance

In-sample / out-of-sample split recommendations and re-optimization frequency suggestions, tuned to your strategy's signature.

Stress Testing

Stress test your equity curve against 50,000 alternate realities.

Bootstrap, permutation, and trade-skipping simulations reveal what your backtest looked like only because of luck. Get drawdown confidence intervals, risk-of-ruin estimates, and a Monte Carlo assessment in plain English.

🔀

Bootstrap & Permutation

Shuffle existing trades or resample with replacement. Each method reveals different fragilities in your strategy.

Random Trade Skipping

Simulate missed trades from slippage, spread, or VPS downtime. Configurable 1–10% skip rate.

📊

Confidence Intervals

Maximum drawdown at 50%, 95%, and 99% confidence. Know your realistic worst-case, not just the single lucky path.

Core Validation

19 institutional-grade validation tests. One score.

Edge Matrix runs 19 statistical tests on every strategy — from Sharpe ratio with sample-size validation to advanced overfitting detection. The output is a single 0–100 score with category breakdowns, so you know exactly where your strategy is strong and where it's fragile.

🧮

Deflated Sharpe Ratio

Corrects raw Sharpe for the multiple-trials bias common in parameter optimization. Built on Bailey & López de Prado's framework.

DD Endurance / Triple Penance

Bailey & López de Prado's rule for how long an investor must wait through max drawdown before rationally concluding a strategy is broken.

🌊

Tail Risk (CVaR)

Expected shortfall in the worst 5% of outcomes — the Basel III standard for risk measurement. Far more informative than VaR alone.

🎯

Pattern Detection

Martingale, grid, hold-time asymmetry, skewness, kurtosis, concentration risk (Gini). Catches dangerous patterns hiding behind smooth curves.

Pattern Analysis

Find the money you're leaving on the table.

Insights breaks your trade history down by day, session, month, and symbol — then identifies losing patterns you can filter out. Get the exact MQL5/MT5/cTrader code to add to your EA, with timezone awareness.

📅

Day / Session / Month Buckets

Pattern detection across Asian, London, NY, and Pacific sessions, plus day-of-week and monthly performance — all with statistical significance testing.

🎚️

Greedy Filter Optimization

Up to 3 optimal filter combinations selected by marginal contribution — preferring broader filters to reduce overfitting.

💻

Platform-Native EA Code

Auto-generated MQL4, MQL5, or cTrader (C#) filter code — drop it directly into your EA. Detects platform from the uploaded backtest.

🌍

GMT / Timezone Adjustment

Set your broker's GMT offset and Insights rebuckets sessions automatically. Critical for getting accurate "NY session" classification.

Multi-Strategy

Compare up to 20 strategies side by side.

Rank your strategies on every metric in one view. See which wins on risk, which wins on consistency, which to drop — backed by Monte Carlo robustness scores and Edge Matrix totals.

⚔️

Head-to-Head Ranking

Net P/L, Sharpe, drawdown, profit factor, recovery factor, and 15+ other metrics ranked side by side with color-coded winners and losers.

🔬

Cross-Strategy Monte Carlo

Each strategy stress-tested independently, then ranked by Monte Carlo robustness score. The best backtest doesn't always survive.

🏆

Composite Verdict

Per-strategy Edge Score plus pro/con summary — at a glance you know which strategies are worth pursuing and which to retire.
