5 INSTRUMENTS · 5 OPERATIONAL
Interactive tools and experiments for investigating quantitative finance, market data, risk, strategy design and technical systems. Explore the inputs, assumptions, calculations and outputs behind each instrument.
MARKET-DATA TIMELINE / SYNTHETIC SERIES
ILLUSTRATIVE
ILLUSTRATIVE — DETERMINISTIC SYNTHETIC SERIES FOR INSTRUMENT CONTEXT, NOT MEASURED MARKET DATA. THE REPLAY INSTRUMENT DEMONSTRATES THE INFORMATION BOUNDARY INTERACTIVELY.

PANEL ART IS SCHEMATIC REPRESENTATION — EACH CARD OPENS THE REAL INSTRUMENT.
BACKTEST EXPLORER
Backtest exploration lives in the Apex case study instrument: the equity surface, drawdown subplot and trade population are explored in place, against the real backtest record rather than a mock dataset.
OPEN BACKTEST EXPLORER →RISK / RETURN SURFACE
LAB / SURF-01 — PROJECTED 3D, 2D FALLBACK BUILT-IN
A projected 3D wireframe of the risk / return surface, rendered in pure SVG so it runs anywhere. Drag to rotate; hover for a coordinate readout.
X — VOLATILITY
Y — REWARD:RISK
Z — PERFORMANCE HEURISTIC
DRAG TO ROTATE · HOVER FOR READOUT
The surface is a deterministic analytic heuristic, not backtest output: performance rises with R-multiple structure and decays with volatility squared. High-Z nodes (red) cluster at high R:R and low volatility — the region where a structural pipeline concentrates.
