Everything a serious backtest needs

Built like the internal tooling at a quant desk — without the desk.

Python strategy engine

Write strategies in Python with a clean on_candle API, or start from battle-tested templates — MA cross, RSI reversion, MACD momentum.

Real market data

Backtest against up to 10,000 real Binance candles per run, from 1-minute scalps to weekly swings.

20+ institutional metrics

Sharpe, Sortino, Calmar, CAGR, expectancy, payoff ratio, exposure, streaks — the numbers a real desk looks at.

Realistic cost modeling

Commission and slippage applied to every fill, so your edge survives contact with the real market.

Deep visual analytics

Equity vs. buy & hold, underwater drawdown curves, monthly return heatmaps, and per-trade P&L distribution.

Risk-first simulation

Stop loss, take profit, trailing stops, position sizing by risk — long and short, tested candle by candle.
