Is this backtest Sharpe real, or the best of many lucky tries?

Inputs

Periodic strategy returns, periods per year, number of variants tried, optionally the variants themselves.

Outputs

Sharpe with a bootstrap interval, Probabilistic and Deflated Sharpe, minimum track record, drawdown at 95%, probability of backtest overfitting.

Evidence

In 1,000 null simulations the best of 50 variants passed plain PSR 92% of the time and DSR 0%; a real edge among 20 variants was found 37% of the time.

Limits

Conservative by design: a pass is strong evidence, a fail is not proof of no edge. Costs must already be in the returns.

API

POST /labs/backtest/check {returns, periods_per_year, trials, variants}

Minimum data: 30 returns; 64 rows per variant for overfitting.
