Factor Research

Factor research

One-way Spearman IC with quintile stratification. After the factor shift(1), future returns are eliminated to eliminate forward looking.

Ask one clear question of a factor

The study tests a historical relationship after hiding future data. It is research evidence, not a forecast.

Ready to study
  1. Read the same market history

    XAUUSD H1 · 2,000 bars

  2. Hide future data

    Shift the factor, then observe 1 future bar

  3. Measure historical link

    rsi · Spearman IC

  4. Compare five groups

    Read the layer spread, not one headline number

Custom factor

Write a cross-asset factor expression to immediately run IC / quantile / long-short tests (AST whitelist, safe execution).

Available variables: close · open · high · low · volume
Available functions: sma(x,n) · ema(x,n) · rsi(x,n) · momentum(x,n) · std(x,n) · rank_z(x,n) · abs(x) · log(x) · sqrt(x) · max(x,n) · min(x,n)
Example: momentum(close, 10) - sma(close, 20)/close · rsi(close, 14) - 50 · rank_z(close, 60)
