Backtest on real historical prices from Aug 13, 2026 to Oct 2, 2026: signals on completed bars, filled at the next bar's open, net of typical spread, commission and overnight financing. Past and backtested results are not a reliable indicator of future results. (Alpaca)
Methodology
- Trades the log-price spread of the first two instruments. When its 60-bar z-score exceeds +1.8, short the first and buy the second; below −1.8 the opposite.
- Both legs are closed when |z| falls below 0.5. The book is close to market-neutral.
- Trades both directions (long and short).
- Position size targets 5% annualised volatility (risk level 1/5), capped at 2:1 leverage per instrument. Costs: live bid/ask spread, commission and overnight financing.
