Performance Metrics
Out-of-Sample Validation
Tested on unseen data to verify the strategy is not curve-fitted.
Statistical Confidence
How likely the edge is real — out-of-sample statistical confidence, consistency across time, and a comparison to simply holding the asset.
Return range (90% confidence): -22.2% ··· 22.91% ··· 94.19%
Backtest includes trading fees and slippage, assumes full-capital sequential compounding, and does not model futures funding costs on shorts.
With Leverage (Futures) — Projection
Same entries and exits as the spot backtest, with PnL multiplied by leverage. Losses are amplified exactly as much as gains — compare the drawdown, not just the return.
2× leverage
Projection from spot trades — excludes funding fees and assumes the stop-loss fills at its level. The stop sits well inside the liquidation distance at these levels, but leveraged futures can lose your full margin. Not financial advice.
