Costs before returns
Commission and slippage modelled per fill. The result reads gross, then fees, then net — never a headline that ignores friction.
Early access to the backtester that tries to break your strategy — real costs, held-out data, honest verdict.
Most tools optimise until the curve looks good, then stop. Veristrat runs the checks that try to break the strategy, and shows you the ones it failed.
Commission and slippage modelled per fill. The result reads gross, then fees, then net — never a headline that ignores friction.
A held-out slice never touches the fit, and its Sharpe sits next to the in-sample figure so the gap is impossible to miss.
Every parameter is swept, every trade grouped by market regime. An edge that lives on a knife edge shows itself.
