Most signal shops show you the strategies that worked. We show you the gauntlet that killed the rest. Every strategy in production survived three stages of adversarial testing designed to make it fail.
An unattended research engine searches the parameter space every night, re-validating each candidate against exchange-grade historical data with realistic commissions and fill modeling.
A promising backtest is a claim, not a result. Candidates are stress-tested for the failure modes that break live strategies.
Survivors trade under layered protection: bracket orders on every position, synthetic overnight stops, and independent watchdogs that reconcile the book against the broker continuously.
Eleven strategies run in production today across two independently-booked portfolios. Every figure below is a validated backtest of the exact parameters trading live, reproduced bar-for-bar on exchange data.3
Intraday book on 5–15 minute bars. Long and short. Every position is closed by end of day — the book sleeps flat, immune to overnight gaps.

Each leg of every trade is reconciled against the exact price its signal quoted — entries against the signal, exits against their own trigger. Slippage is budgeted, measured, and reported per instrument.
A daily audit classifies every closed deal — did we fill at the quoted price, did the book earn what the signals predicted, and is every strategy still transmitting? Silent failures are treated as incidents.
Continuous position reconciliation, conservation checks on realized P&L, and contract-identity verification — the class of error where a strategy quietly trades the wrong futures month is checked for, daily.
“We measure the gap between the signal and the fill — every trading day, on every book.”
| price fidelity | fills vs. quoted signal | PASS |
| contract identity | traded = signalled instrument | PASS |
| revenue fidelity | booked P&L reproduces from fills | PASS |
| signal supply | all strategies transmitting | PASS |
| bracket coverage | every position protected | PASS |
| book = broker | positions reconciled | PASS |
