% TODO content notes:
|
|
% - Describe the GBM null-data generator: dS = mu*S*dt + sigma*S*dW, fixed
|
|
% seed, parameters (mu, sigma, N steps, start price) documented in
|
|
% experiments/README.md and reproduced in 01_generate_gbm.py.
|
|
% - Key property to state explicitly: this series has zero exploitable
|
|
% structure by construction — no autocorrelation edge, no regime, nothing
|
|
% a real strategy could legitimately learn.
|
|
% - Define the test: run the same kernel/backtester pipeline against N
|
|
% independent GBM seeds. A backtester free of lookahead bias should
|
|
% produce a Sharpe distribution centered at ~0 across seeds. A backtester
|
|
% with a leak will produce a systematically positive Sharpe regardless of
|
|
% seed, because the "edge" comes from the mechanics, not the data.
|
|
% - State this as a pass/fail CI gate: mean Sharpe over >= 30 seeds must
|
|
% fall within a pre-registered null band (e.g. -0.3 to 0.3); anything
|
|
% outside that band fails the build. This is what
|
|
% .github/workflows/noise-harness.yml is wired to enforce once
|
|
% experiments/05_noise_harness.py exists.
