Learn it.
Test it.
Then trade it.

A structured curriculum for options and futures traders, and a public library of strategies we've actually put through testing — including the ones that failed.

How a strategy earns a card
01
Spec it
Entry, exit, stop and instrument written down before any data is touched.
02
Pre-register the bar
What counts as a pass is fixed in advance. No moving the goalposts.
03
Backtest on real fills
Judged on how orders actually fill, with costs counted.
04
Hold out data
A slice it never saw decides whether the edge is real.
05
Publish the verdict
Pass or fail, it goes in the library.

The Strategy Library

Every strategy gets a card.
Every card gets a verdict.

Numbered, versioned and public. Refuted strategies stay in the library, so you don't have to learn the same lesson with your own money.

How we test

No screenshots. Just method.

Rules before results

The pass/fail bar is written down before the backtest runs.

Judged on real fills

A strategy is scored the way the venue actually executes it.

Beat a placebo

An edge has to outperform random entries on the same data.

Failures get published

A refuted idea is still a lesson. It stays in the library.
