The workflow
Evaluation as a pipeline, not an opinion.
A candidate strategy enters as branch-tagged trade evidence and leaves as a graded answer.
- Branch probabilities and payoff structure establish the expectancy model.
- EV decomposition separates the edge from the variance around it.
- Rolling stability windows test whether the edge persists or was one regime's gift.
- Outlier-robustness testing asks what remains when the best trades are removed.
