Quant Strategy Research & Performance Tracking

We extract market edges from academic research and turn them into rules-based trading strategies.

Each strategy is tracked daily to observe its performance in real market conditions, not stale back test results.

Backtesting alone isn’t research, a true edge comes from identifying real market inefficiencies. We focus on extracting those edges from academic insights and proving they exist before designing strategies to capture them.

Strategy Library


We track systematic strategies inspired by academic research. Each is based on an extracted edge and monitored over time.

Edge Discovery


We focus on identifying persistent anomalies and patterns in financial data that offers a trading edge.

Benchmark Comparison


We compare strategy performance to benchmarks like the S&P 500, focusing on risk-adjusted returns and drawdowns.

Research Access


Institutional-style strategy research made accessible. No hedge fund access required, just data and insight at an affordable price.

Transparent Tracking


Every strategy is rules based and tracked live. No recommendations — just transparent, evidence-based performance.

AI and Machine Learning


We explore how AI and machine learning can improve edge discovery and strategy development.

How it works?

1. Extracting Edges

We scan academic papers and investment literature for market inefficiency ideas with the potential to generate excess returns.

2. Building Strategies

Each idea is turned into a systematic, rules-based strategy that can be implemented consistently and tracked.

3. Tracking Performance

All strategies are monitored daily to evaluate return, volatility, drawdowns, and other key metrics.


No advice, just research. QuantReturns is not about recommendations, it’s about testing ideas and learning from the results.

“I used to rely on gut feel and market timing. Now I’m studying strategies built from proven research and tracking their performance. QuantReturns offers a much more disciplined perspective.”
