Forward tests · Live

The scoreboard nobody else publishes

A backtest can be argued with; a forward test can't. Every night, our engine replays each tracked strategy on fresh exchange data and records only trades entered after the cohort was published. Open positions are never force-closed to flatter the numbers, and the results publish either way. This page updates automatically.

Cohort 1 — sweep survivors

429 strategy variants that passed out-of-sample gates in a 6,624-combination parameter sweep, forward-tested nightly since 2026-07-08. Grouped by entry family — individual variants stay private.

Net figures include realistic costs. Early samples move — a few days of forward trades is a draft, not a verdict; the point is that the record accumulates in public and can't be edited after the fact.

Cohort 2 — the AI report-card passers

The two gate-passing strategies from the AI Strategy Report Card (Gemini's B and ChatGPT's near-miss), forward-tested nightly since 2026-07-10 at full taker costs.

No closed forward trades yet — these are low-frequency systems (the backtest averaged a trade every few days). Zero is the honest number until the market gives a signal.

The rules, so you can hold us to them

  • Only trades entered on or after each cohort's publication date count. Nothing retroactive.
  • A trade is recorded only after its full exit window has elapsed — open positions are never force-closed into the stats.
  • All net figures include realistic trading costs.
  • Numbers publish win or lose. If a cohort bleeds out, that stays on this page too.
