Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A public research project tests trading hypotheses against costs, out-of-sample data, chance, and multiple-testing concerns.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-08 issue.

Field notes

Alpha Survey treats trading ideas as hypotheses rather than recommendations. Its stated workflow fixes pass/fail criteria before testing, includes commissions, slippage, funding and borrow, and compares results with shuffled controls and out-of-sample periods. The homepage currently reports 76 registered hypotheses, 51 archived as empty, and three public log entries. One featured case examines the shorting premium and says a rebalancing bug and an underperforming fee ranking helped invalidate the result.
