About this Gig

I validate trading strategies the way it's done in serious quant research: not just a pretty backtest, but honest statistical testing that tells you whether an edge is real or just luck.


What I can do for you:

  • Backtest your strategy in Python on your own data
  • Proper train/test splits and purged K-fold cross-validation
  • Advanced validation (Lopez de Prado): Deflated Sharpe Ratio, walk-forward, meta-labeling
  • Clear metrics: return, drawdown, Sharpe, hit rate, turnover
  • A documented report you can actually trust

My background: 19+ years as a software engineer plus an MBA in Data Science (USP/Esalq), applying rigorous methods to avoid overfitting and false discoveries.


I give you an honest assessment - including when a strategy does NOT hold up. No inflated results. You receive clean Python code and a documented report, in English or Portuguese.
