## 📊 1. Core Validation Metrics (15 Metrics)

### Category A: Risk Metrics (6 metrics)

#### A1. Maximum Drawdown (MDD)
```rust
/// Maximum peak-to-trough decline in portfolio value
pub fn calculate_max_drawdown(equity_curve: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let mut peak = equity_curve[0];
    let mut max_dd = 0.0;

    for &value in equity_curve {
        if value > peak {
            peak = value;
        }
        let drawdown = (peak - value) / peak;
        max_dd = max_dd.max(drawdown);
    }

    max_dd
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≤ 15% (target: ≤ 10%)
**Critical Threshold**: > 25% (FAIL - do not deploy)
**Interpretation**: Lower is better. 25% MDD = portfolio lost 25% from peak.

#### A2. Value at Risk (VaR) 95%
```rust
/// Worst expected loss at 95% confidence level
pub fn calculate_var_95(daily_returns: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let mut sorted_returns = daily_returns.to_vec();
    sorted_returns.sort_by(|a, b| a.partial_cmp(b).unwrap());

    let var_idx = (sorted_returns.len() as f64 * 0.05) as usize;
    -sorted_returns[var_idx] // Negative for loss
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≤ 3% daily (target: ≤ 2%)
**Critical Threshold**: > 5% daily (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: 95% of days, losses won't exceed this value.

#### A3. Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR / Expected Shortfall) 95%
```rust
/// Average loss beyond VaR threshold
pub fn calculate_cvar_95(daily_returns: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let var_95 = calculate_var_95(daily_returns);
    let tail_losses: Vec<f64> = daily_returns.iter()
        .filter(|&&r| r < -var_95)
        .copied()
        .collect();

    if tail_losses.is_empty() {
        return var_95;
    }

    -tail_losses.iter().sum::<f64>() / tail_losses.len() as f64
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≤ 4% daily (target: ≤ 2.5%)
**Critical Threshold**: > 6% daily (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: When losses exceed VaR, this is the average loss.

#### A4. Downside Deviation
```rust
/// Volatility of negative returns only
pub fn calculate_downside_deviation(returns: &[f64], risk_free_rate: f64) -> f64 {
    let downside_returns: Vec<f64> = returns.iter()
        .filter(|&&r| r < risk_free_rate)
        .map(|&r| (r - risk_free_rate).powi(2))
        .collect();

    if downside_returns.is_empty() {
        return 0.0;
    }

    (downside_returns.iter().sum::<f64>() / downside_returns.len() as f64).sqrt()
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≤ 2.5% daily (target: ≤ 1.5%)
**Critical Threshold**: > 4% daily (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: Measures downside volatility (penalty for negative returns).

#### A5. Tail Risk (95th Percentile / Median Loss Ratio)
```rust
/// Measures severity of tail events relative to median loss
pub fn calculate_tail_risk(daily_returns: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let mut sorted_returns = daily_returns.to_vec();
    sorted_returns.sort_by(|a, b| a.partial_cmp(b).unwrap());

    let p5_idx = (sorted_returns.len() as f64 * 0.05) as usize;
    let median_idx = sorted_returns.len() / 2;

    let p5_loss = -sorted_returns[p5_idx];
    let median_loss = -sorted_returns[median_idx].min(0.0);

    if median_loss < 0.001 {
        return p5_loss; // Return absolute tail loss if median is near-zero
    }

    p5_loss / median_loss
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≤ 3.0 (target: ≤ 2.0)
**Critical Threshold**: > 5.0 (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: Ratio > 3 means tail events are 3x worse than typical losses.

#### A6. Recovery Time (Days to Recover from MDD)
```rust
/// Time to recover from maximum drawdown to new peak
pub fn calculate_recovery_time(equity_curve: &[DateTime<Utc>], values: &[f64]) -> i64 {
    let mut peak = values[0];
    let mut peak_date = equity_curve[0];
    let mut in_drawdown = false;
    let mut mdd_start: Option<DateTime<Utc>> = None;
    let mut recovery_time = 0_i64;

    for (i, &value) in values.iter().enumerate() {
        if value > peak {
            if in_drawdown && mdd_start.is_some() {
                recovery_time = recovery_time.max(
                    (equity_curve[i] - mdd_start.unwrap()).num_days()
                );
            }
            peak = value;
            peak_date = equity_curve[i];
            in_drawdown = false;
        } else if value < peak && !in_drawdown {
            in_drawdown = true;
            mdd_start = Some(peak_date);
        }
    }

    recovery_time
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≤ 30 days (target: ≤ 20 days)
**Critical Threshold**: > 60 days (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: How long model takes to recover from worst drawdown.

---

### Category B: Performance Metrics (5 metrics)

#### B1. Sharpe Ratio (Annualized)
**Already Implemented** in `/home/jgrusewski/Work/foxhunt/ml/src/metrics/sharpe.rs`

**Production Threshold**: ≥ 1.5 (target: ≥ 2.0)
**Critical Threshold**: < 1.0 (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: Risk-adjusted return. Sharpe = 2.0 means 2% excess return per 1% volatility.

#### B2. Sortino Ratio (Annualized)
```rust
/// Sharpe ratio variant using downside deviation
pub fn calculate_sortino_ratio(
    returns: &[f64],
    risk_free_rate: f64,
    periods_per_year: f64,
) -> Result<f64, MLError> {
    let mean_return = returns.iter().sum::<f64>() / returns.len() as f64;
    let downside_dev = calculate_downside_deviation(returns, risk_free_rate / periods_per_year);

    if downside_dev < 1e-10 {
        return Ok(0.0);
    }

    let excess_return = mean_return - (risk_free_rate / periods_per_year);
    let sortino = (excess_return / downside_dev) * periods_per_year.sqrt();

    Ok(sortino)
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≥ 2.0 (target: ≥ 2.5)
**Critical Threshold**: < 1.5 (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: Better than Sharpe for asymmetric strategies (only penalizes downside).

#### B3. Calmar Ratio (Return / Max Drawdown)
**Already Implemented** in `/home/jgrusewski/Work/foxhunt/backtesting/src/metrics.rs:1166`

**Production Threshold**: ≥ 1.5 (target: ≥ 2.0)
**Critical Threshold**: < 1.0 (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: Calmar = 2.0 means 20% annual return with 10% max drawdown.

#### B4. Profit Factor
```rust
/// Ratio of gross profits to gross losses
pub fn calculate_profit_factor(trade_pnls: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let gross_profit: f64 = trade_pnls.iter()
        .filter(|&&pnl| pnl > 0.0)
        .sum();
    let gross_loss: f64 = trade_pnls.iter()
        .filter(|&&pnl| pnl < 0.0)
        .map(|pnl| pnl.abs())
        .sum();

    if gross_loss < 0.001 {
        return if gross_profit > 0.0 { f64::INFINITY } else { 0.0 };
    }

    gross_profit / gross_loss
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≥ 1.5 (target: ≥ 2.0)
**Critical Threshold**: < 1.2 (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: Profit Factor = 2.0 means $2 profit for every $1 loss.

#### B5. Stability Ratio (Return Consistency)
```rust
/// Measures consistency of returns (R² of equity curve regression)
pub fn calculate_stability_ratio(equity_curve: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let n = equity_curve.len() as f64;
    let x: Vec<f64> = (0..equity_curve.len()).map(|i| i as f64).collect();

    // Linear regression of equity curve
    let x_mean = x.iter().sum::<f64>() / n;
    let y_mean = equity_curve.iter().sum::<f64>() / n;

    let mut ss_xy = 0.0;
    let mut ss_xx = 0.0;
    let mut ss_yy = 0.0;

    for i in 0..equity_curve.len() {
        let x_dev = x[i] - x_mean;
        let y_dev = equity_curve[i] - y_mean;
        ss_xy += x_dev * y_dev;
        ss_xx += x_dev * x_dev;
        ss_yy += y_dev * y_dev;
    }

    let r_squared = (ss_xy * ss_xy) / (ss_xx * ss_yy);
    r_squared
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≥ 0.80 (target: ≥ 0.90)
**Critical Threshold**: < 0.70 (FAIL)
**Interpretation**: R² = 0.90 means equity curve fits linear trend (consistent growth).

---

### Category C: Trading Behavior Metrics (3 metrics)

#### C1. Win Rate
```rust
/// Percentage of profitable trades
pub fn calculate_win_rate(trade_pnls: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let winning_trades = trade_pnls.iter().filter(|&&pnl| pnl > 0.0).count();
    winning_trades as f64 / trade_pnls.len() as f64
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≥ 0.55 (target: ≥ 0.60)
**Critical Threshold**: < 0.50 (FAIL - worse than random)
**Interpretation**: 55% win rate means 55 winners out of 100 trades.

#### C2. Average Trade Duration (Days)
```rust
/// Mean holding period per trade
pub fn calculate_avg_trade_duration(
    entry_times: &[DateTime<Utc>],
    exit_times: &[DateTime<Utc>]
) -> f64 {
    let durations: Vec<f64> = entry_times.iter().zip(exit_times.iter())
        .map(|(entry, exit)| (*exit - *entry).num_seconds() as f64 / 86400.0)
        .collect();

    durations.iter().sum::<f64>() / durations.len() as f64
}
```

**Production Threshold**: 0.1 - 5.0 days (target: 0.5 - 2.0 days)
**Critical Threshold**: < 0.05 days (too fast) OR > 10 days (too slow)
**Interpretation**: HFT strategy should hold positions hours to days, not weeks.

#### C3. Trade Frequency (Trades per Day)
```rust
/// Number of trades per trading day
pub fn calculate_trade_frequency(
    num_trades: usize,
    start_date: DateTime<Utc>,
    end_date: DateTime<Utc>
) -> f64 {
    let trading_days = (end_date - start_date).num_days() as f64 / 1.0;
    num_trades as f64 / trading_days
}
```

**Production Threshold**: 2 - 20 trades/day (target: 5 - 15 trades/day)
**Critical Threshold**: < 1 trade/day (too passive) OR > 50 trades/day (overtrading)
**Interpretation**: HFT should trade actively but not excessively (transaction costs).

---

### Category D: Robustness Metrics (1 metric)

#### D1. Out-of-Sample Performance Degradation
```rust
/// Measures overfitting by comparing in-sample vs out-of-sample Sharpe
pub fn calculate_oos_degradation(
    in_sample_sharpe: f64,
    out_of_sample_sharpe: f64
) -> f64 {
    (in_sample_sharpe - out_of_sample_sharpe) / in_sample_sharpe
}
```

**Production Threshold**: ≤ 0.30 (30% degradation) (target: ≤ 0.20)
**Critical Threshold**: > 0.50 (FAIL - severe overfitting)
**Interpretation**: 30% degradation means OOS Sharpe is 70% of in-sample (acceptable).

---

## 🔬 2. Multi-Backtest Aggregation Strategy

### Problem Statement
Single backtest results are **unreliable** due to:
- Regime sensitivity (bull vs bear markets)
- Overfitting to specific time periods
- Lack of statistical power
- Cherry-picking best results

### Solution: Monte Carlo Walk-Forward Analysis

```rust
/// Configuration for walk-forward backtesting
pub struct WalkForwardConfig {
    /// Training window size (days)
    pub train_window: usize,
    /// Testing window size (days)
    pub test_window: usize,
    /// Step size between windows (days)
    pub step_size: usize,
    /// Number of bootstrap samples per window
    pub num_bootstraps: usize,
    /// Confidence level for intervals (e.g., 0.95)
    pub confidence_level: f64,
}

impl Default for WalkForwardConfig {
    fn default() -> Self {
        Self {
            train_window: 180,    // 6 months training
            test_window: 30,      // 1 month testing
            step_size: 30,        // Roll forward 1 month
            num_bootstraps: 1000, // 1000 bootstrap samples
            confidence_level: 0.95,
        }
    }
}
```

### Walk-Forward Backtest Procedure

```rust
/// Aggregate results from multiple walk-forward backtests
pub struct AggregatedMetrics {
    /// Mean metric value across all windows
    pub mean: f64,
    /// Standard deviation of metric across windows
    pub std_dev: f64,
    /// 95% confidence interval lower bound
    pub ci_lower: f64,
    /// 95% confidence interval upper bound
    pub ci_upper: f64,
    /// Minimum value observed
    pub min: f64,
    /// Maximum value observed
    pub max: f64,
    /// Number of windows analyzed
    pub num_windows: usize,
}

/// Perform walk-forward validation with aggregation
pub async fn walk_forward_validation(
    model: &dyn MLModel,
    data: &[MarketData],
    config: &WalkForwardConfig,
) -> Result<HashMap<String, AggregatedMetrics>> {
    let mut sharpe_ratios = Vec::new();
    let mut max_drawdowns = Vec::new();
    let mut sortino_ratios = Vec::new();
    // ... collect all 15 metrics

    let num_windows = (data.len() - config.train_window - config.test_window) / config.step_size;

    for window_idx in 0..num_windows {
        let train_start = window_idx * config.step_size;
        let train_end = train_start + config.train_window;
        let test_start = train_end;
        let test_end = test_start + config.test_window;

        // Train model on training window
        let train_data = &data[train_start..train_end];
        model.train(train_data).await?;

        // Test on out-of-sample window
        let test_data = &data[test_start..test_end];
        let backtest_result = backtest_strategy(model, test_data).await?;

        // Collect metrics
        sharpe_ratios.push(backtest_result.sharpe_ratio);
        max_drawdowns.push(backtest_result.max_drawdown);
        sortino_ratios.push(backtest_result.sortino_ratio);
        // ... collect all 15 metrics
    }

    // Aggregate with bootstrap confidence intervals
    let mut aggregated = HashMap::new();
    aggregated.insert("sharpe_ratio", bootstrap_aggregate(&sharpe_ratios, config));
    aggregated.insert("max_drawdown", bootstrap_aggregate(&max_drawdowns, config));
    aggregated.insert("sortino_ratio", bootstrap_aggregate(&sortino_ratios, config));
    // ... aggregate all 15 metrics

    Ok(aggregated)
}
```

## 📈 3. Statistical Significance Testing

### Bootstrap Confidence Intervals

```rust
/// Bootstrap resampling for confidence intervals
pub fn bootstrap_aggregate(
    samples: &[f64],
    config: &WalkForwardConfig,
) -> AggregatedMetrics {
    use rand::seq::SliceRandom;
    use rand::thread_rng;

    let mut rng = thread_rng();
    let mut bootstrap_means = Vec::with_capacity(config.num_bootstraps);

    // Generate bootstrap samples
    for _ in 0..config.num_bootstraps {
        let bootstrap_sample: Vec<f64> = (0..samples.len())
            .map(|_| *samples.choose(&mut rng).unwrap())
            .collect();

        let bootstrap_mean = bootstrap_sample.iter().sum::<f64>() / bootstrap_sample.len() as f64;
        bootstrap_means.push(bootstrap_mean);
    }

    // Sort for percentile calculation
    bootstrap_means.sort_by(|a, b| a.partial_cmp(b).unwrap());

    // Calculate confidence interval
    let alpha = 1.0 - config.confidence_level;
    let lower_idx = (bootstrap_means.len() as f64 * alpha / 2.0) as usize;
    let upper_idx = (bootstrap_means.len() as f64 * (1.0 - alpha / 2.0)) as usize;

    AggregatedMetrics {
        mean: samples.iter().sum::<f64>() / samples.len() as f64,
        std_dev: calculate_std_dev(samples),
        ci_lower: bootstrap_means[lower_idx],
        ci_upper: bootstrap_means[upper_idx],
        min: samples.iter().cloned().fold(f64::INFINITY, f64::min),
        max: samples.iter().cloned().fold(f64::NEG_INFINITY, f64::max),
        num_windows: samples.len(),
    }
}

fn calculate_std_dev(samples: &[f64]) -> f64 {
    let mean = samples.iter().sum::<f64>() / samples.len() as f64;
    let variance = samples.iter()
        .map(|x| (x - mean).powi(2))
        .sum::<f64>() / samples.len() as f64;
    variance.sqrt()
}
```

### Two-Sample T-Test (Model Comparison)

```rust
/// Compare two models using paired t-test on Sharpe ratios
pub fn paired_t_test(
    model_a_sharpes: &[f64],
    model_b_sharpes: &[f64],
    alpha: f64, // significance level (e.g., 0.05)

### Hypothesis Test Framework

```rust
/// Hypothesis testing for production deployment
pub struct HypothesisTest {
    /// Null hypothesis: Model performs no better than benchmark
    pub null_hypothesis: String,
    /// Alternative hypothesis: Model outperforms benchmark
    pub alternative_hypothesis: String,

    let t_statistic = mean_diff / pooled_std;
    let df = (model_metrics.num_windows + benchmark_metrics.num_windows - 2) as f64;
    let p_value = 1.0 - t_cdf(t_statistic, df); // One-tailed test

    HypothesisTest {
