Understand a strategy family
Start with built-in momentum, mean reversion, volatility, and factor ideas before inventing something custom.
Systematic trading workspace
Systematic trading research with less noise.
Alphrex gives self-directed traders one disciplined workspace for backtests, strategy comparison, bounded research, and forward paper tracking. The point is not to sell a perfect curve. It is to make fragile ideas easier to reject.
What it prioritizes
Research hygiene
Costs, validation, and data warnings stay visible.
Who it serves
Retail quants
Serious hobbyists and intermediate traders, not passive investors.
What it avoids
Leaderboard fantasy
Paper scoreboards outrank in-sample vanity.
15+
Built-in strategies
OOS
Holdout diagnostics
WF
Walk-forward checks
Live
Paper scoreboards
Start Here
Use it for one clear job at a time.
The landing page should not make a new user decode the whole platform. Start from the question you actually have.
Filter fragile ideas
Use backtest and compare to eliminate setups that only look good before costs or validation show up.
Track survivors forward
Move the few ideas that still hold up into paper tracking and scoreboards instead of trusting static charts.
Research workflow
From idea to forward tracking, without hiding the caveats.
Each surface has a job in the loop: test the idea, compare the survivors, then keep only the ones that still behave once time moves forward.
01
Run disciplined backtests
Run strategy, ticker, costs, benchmark, and holdout context together so the result starts with realistic assumptions.
02
Compare and inspect the weak spots
Use side-by-side views to see whether differences are structural or just a flattering sample window.
03
Track ideas forward before trusting them
Paper strategies and portfolios continue from today so the scoreboard is anchored in forward behavior, not a screenshot.
Pages that do the work
- Dashboard orients watchlists, saved work, and market context.
- Strategy Studio and Research Lab let you build bounded ideas without jumping straight into arbitrary code.
- Backtest and Compare decide what deserves another minute of attention.
- Paper and Scoreboards answer what still looked credible after the backtest ended.
What it refuses to fake
- Data provenance stays attached to questionable inputs.
- Cost assumptions are visible at run time, not buried later.
- Validation gaps stay close to the main headline metrics.
- No live execution means research and paper tracking stop before broker routing.
Methodology
Three rules shape every result.
The product is not neutral about common research mistakes. It is designed to keep these constraints in view instead of letting them hide behind a good chart.
Question the data
Provider fallbacks, continuity checks, and provenance warnings reduce the risk of weak history passing as evidence.
Pay for turnover
Commission and slippage are modeled in basis points. Costless backtests are treated as incomplete.
Respect out-of-sample
Holdout and walk-forward summaries keep the gap between in-sample and forward-looking behavior hard to ignore.
Private access
