CRYNOMAD runs two trading engines in paper forward testing — delta-neutral carry and volatility income. Two earlier strategies, systematic long/short and a free AI signal service, are closed with their records retained. Each is tested forward and out-of-sample, through LUNA and FTX. The ones that don't hold up are closed, and the record stays.
A strategy must show a positive, out-of-sample edge before a dollar is deployed. We don't dress up a backtest and call it a track record.
Sizing starts from the loss we can tolerate, not the return we'd like. Risk control isn't a footnote here — it's the product.
Long/short positioning, carry, and volatility income respond to different market forces. We treat diversification as a design goal, not a guarantee.
Most ideas don't make it through. That's the point — the filter is the edge.
An economic reason it should work — not a pattern that happened to fit.
Parameters chosen only from the past, then tested on data the model never saw.
Forced through LUNA, FTX, and 2024's spikes — judged on the worst, not the average.
Live market, real time, execution-faithful fills — before any capital is at risk.
Staged in — smallest size first, scaled only as the live record earns it.
Selection happens in steps 02–03. By the time a strategy reaches capital, it has already survived the worst of the last six years — including the two events that wiped out most of the market.
Two trading engines in paper forward testing, plus two closed strategies whose records are retained. Each has its own entry on the track record: the edge it captures, the execution approach, and how it was validated.
We show where each edge can break.
Each strategy on the track record is labeled by how far it has cleared validation — paper, forward test, live. No hindsight, no survivorship edits. The point of all the validation isn't to promise you won't lose; it's to make sure the edge is real before we risk anything on it.
Risk disclosure. CRYNOMAD strategies are at varying stages (forward test / paper / closed), each labeled accordingly. Concrete performance is shared individually with qualified investors on request — not published here. Cryptocurrency trading carries significant risk, including the total loss of capital.
