Home Mandate Engine Method Falsification Track Record About SSS Contact

Discipline over discretion. Always.

Arctix trades a paper account and manages no client capital. Nothing here is a return figure, an offer, or a solicitation. What follows is the record of the process — how much the engine has tested, and how little of it survived.

The engine has been running since 2026-04-15, across 1317 strategy families and 13 active theses. Capacity on the paper book is 10 concurrent strategies; 8 are deployed.

Why there is no return series here. A validated strategy has cleared a 21-day minimum on a paper account — that is enough to test whether a backtest survives contact with real fills, and not enough to constitute a track record. Publishing a paper equity curve as though it were performance is the exact thing this operation is built to avoid. When there is a record worth showing, it will be shown with its methodology attached.

The gates these numbers are measured against are set out in full on the method page. A survival rate means nothing without the bar beside it.
