Hey @Kevin Gong . Just doing some strategy building right now. I know before you mentioned you like the noise test to be right around the mid-point for a "PASS" in your book. What does a noise test like this tell you? Is it really bad?

Hey @Kevin Gong! Just some questions regarding Build Alpha, how you rank your strategies, and if you had a checklist, how it would go! This is what I mean by checklist in my head, kind of some sort of scoring metrics from "Most Important" to "Least Important". 📊 CORE SCORING (0–100) — unchanged backbone 1) P&L / Drawdown Ratio — 25 <5 → 0 | 5–9.9 → 10 | 10–14.9 → 20 | ≥15 → 25 2) Average Trade (Net P&L ÷ Trades) — 15 <$50 → 0 | $50–99 → 8 | $100–149 → 12 | ≥$150 → 15 3) Trade Count — 10 <400 → 0 | 400–665 → 5 | ≥666 → 10 4) Monte Carlo Positioning — 20 Top quadrant (blue > most sims) → 0 Mid (~50th pct) → 10 Lower 50% → 20 5) Liquidity Test — 15 Liquidity lines < blue → 0 | Mixed → 7 | All > blue → 15 6) Noise Test — 10 Any flat/negative → 0 | All +, blue far above → 5 | All +, blue modestly inside cluster → 10 7) Variance Test — 5 Wide w/ negatives → 0 | Wide mostly + → 3 | Tight, no negatives → 5 8) Other Factors — 0 (Win %, Meta Systems, Slippage excluded from core; discuss qualitatively) ➕ BONUS CONFIRMATION (+0–10) — show separately - Sharpe ≥1.5 → +3 | 1.2–1.49 → +2 | 1.0–1.19 → +1 - Profit Factor ≥2.0 → +3 | 1.7–1.99 → +2 | 1.5–1.69 → +1 - E-Ratio ≥1.3 → +2 | 1.1–1.29 → +1 - Equity Curve Consistency (smooth slope, distributed profits) → +2 (minor lumpiness +1) Report core /100 and bonus /10 separately. Max total = 110. 🎯 SCORE INTERPRETATION (CORE ONLY) 90–100 Hedge Fund Ready | 75–89 Strong Candidate | 60–74 Decent but Risky | <60 Not Deployable
