That is the problem. The validation script does the part people skip: it splits the series into in-sample and out-of-sample, reports the performance gap between them, and asks how many parameter combinations you searched. If you tried forty variations and kept the best, the best one looks good for reasons that have nothing to do with the market. It reports an expectation adjusted for that search, and the adjusted number is usually far worse. People do not enjoy running it, which is exactly why it is worth shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pl-code\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIt ships working code, not just prompts\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003ccode\u003ebacktest.py\u003c\/code\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSplits a return series into in-sample and out-of-sample windows, reports the degradation between them, and adjusts the result for how many parameter combinations were searched.
