The story is that even if a sign appears, you shouldn't jump at it right away

Introduction

In the previous article, we explained why we do not exaggerate the number of discoveries. This time, after finding the conditions that actually passed five robustness tests, we will talk about how we approach them.

Not immediately put into use from the day it passes

Just because all five robustness tests have been passed does not mean we immediately incorporate those conditions into actual operation. Passing a test is only a step that suggests it doesn’t seem like a mere coincidence, and we continue to perform careful verifications afterward.

When a signal appears, first stop and think

Even if a signal actually arises from conditions that passed the tests, we emphasize not making judgments based solely on that signal, but confirming it in conjunction with the overall market conditions at that time. No matter how carefully the conditions are crafted using past data, markets are always changing.

Continuing to engage with the “passed strategy”

The idea we shared in the first story—that a passed strategy is not the same as a winning strategy—remains unchanged after passing the tests. Passes are not a goal; from there we must regularly monitor performance and watch for whether the trends are breaking down. Rather than leaping at a signal the moment it appears, we take a breath and engage thoughtfully. We believe this accumulated approach determines whether we can maintain a long-term relationship with it.

What we’ve felt up to here

Passing verification and continuing to engage with it are entirely different kinds of effort. In the next article, as the final installment of this side story series, we will answer the many questions we have often received, all at once.
