Backtesting Infrastructure denotes the computational framework specifically constructed for the ex-post evaluation of algorithmic trading strategies against historical market datasets. Its core objective involves simulating trading operations to ascertain a strategy’s efficacy, risk exposure, and operational feasibility prior to its integration into live crypto asset markets, including those involving RFQ and institutional options.
Mechanism
Operationally, this system integrates modules for data acquisition, which normalizes disparate historical price and order book information, a deterministic execution simulator applying strategy rules, and a statistical analysis engine. This engine quantifies key performance indicators and risk metrics, often incorporating dynamic market conditions such as liquidity fluctuations and order latency inherent in crypto trading.
Methodology
The methodological application centers on rigorous, data-driven validation, where strategy parameters are systematically varied and tested across diverse historical periods to establish statistical significance and predictive accuracy. This systematic approach aims to mitigate model risk and operational biases, thereby establishing a credible foundation for deployment in high-frequency or institutional crypto trading contexts.
