License: MIT Live on MCPize

An MCP server for walk-forward analysis of trading strategies — Walk-Forward Efficiency ratio, parameter-stability scoring, lock-after-optimization audits, and WFO window generation.

The problem this solves

A strategy optimized on one historical window and never re-validated on a fresh, unseen window is a curve fit until proven otherwise. Walk-forward analysis is the standard fix, but building the rolling windows correctly and scoring whether a parameter surface is a robust plateau or a fragile spike is easy to get subtly wrong by hand.

Tools

walk_forward_efficiency

Computes the Walk-Forward Efficiency ratio — out-of-sample performance as a fraction of in-sample performance — the core signal for whether an optimization generalizes.

parameter_stability_score

Scores a parameter surface for fragile curve-fit spikes vs. robust plateaus, flagging optimizations that only work at one exact parameter value.

lock_after_wfo_check

Audits whether parameters were genuinely locked after the walk-forward optimization step, or quietly re-tuned against the "out-of-sample" data — the mistake that silently invalidates a WFO result.

walk_forward_window_generator

Generates correctly non-overlapping rolling in-sample/out-of-sample windows for a given date range and step size.

    Checks whether a trading backtest survives its own statistics: deflated Sharpe, multiple-testing correction against a best-of-N-noise benchmark, minimum track record length, and fill realism. Takes no market data and no API keys, and cannot recommend a trade — it only reports that a result is weaker than claimed or not yet provable.
