Backtest quality
Review the test period, data quality, modelling method, trade count, settings and whether the result is reproducible.
Technical Evidence Review · EA scope
A bounded technical review for one MT4 or MT5 strategy, whether it came from StrategyQuant, a vendor or your own development process.
Start with context
No source code or account credentials are required for an initial assessment.
Evidence review
Review the test period, data quality, modelling method, trade count, settings and whether the result is reproducible.
Test whether the edge survives wider spreads, commission and plausible slippage rather than one favourable cost profile.
Separate development from evaluation and examine performance in unseen periods or neighbouring market conditions.
Estimate the range of drawdown, losing streaks and return paths that the original trade order may hide.
Where live records exist, compare them with the matching backtest assumptions and investigate material drift.
Apply cost, symbol or programme rules supplied by the customer and report the historical test result without predicting suitability or success.
Evidence taxonomy
The defined technical proposition is supported by the supplied record.
Material assumptions, sensitivities or missing evidence limit the conclusion.
The defined proposition is not supported by the supplied record under the stated assumptions.
These labels apply only to a written technical proposition. They do not mean buy, sell, hold, trade, deploy or stop, and they do not predict future performance.
