Market data
Historical candles and funding may contain gaps or source differences.

Challenge the candidate before risk
Historical candles and funding may contain gaps or source differences.
Signals and intrabar exits follow an explicit sequence.
Fees and slippage are model parameters, not guaranteed live prices.
Queue position, impact, partial fills and outages require forward testing.
Treat holdout, time stability, multiple-testing correction and stress paths as separate evidence. Agreement matters more than one green metric.

Historical, statistical and model results do not promise future returns. kquant provides computational tools and technical execution, but does not assess whether a specific trade is suitable for a user.
