Most strategies look great in-sample. The question is whether they survive everything else.

Build Alpha automatically runs every strategy through randomization, permutation, simulation, and out-of-sample testing. No scripting. No manual setup. One click and you know if the edge is real — or if it’s just noise dressed up as alpha.

Monte Carlo

Thousands of resampled trade sequences reveal the full distribution of outcomes.

Noise Test

Injects randomness into the data. Real edges persist. Curve-fit collapses.

Walk-Forward

True out-of-sample testing across rolling windows to catch overfitting.

Vs. Random

Your strategy vs. thousands of random ones. Must dominate to pass.

Variance Test

Tweaks parameters slightly. Robust strategies hold. Fragile ones break.

Don’t just find a strategy. Prove it.
