Hi, I would like to know if QuantConnect provides any features for performing statistical tests for data quality checks and risk analysis. Also, I want to know if the data QC provides already has neutralized features, because a lot of backtests do well but have overfitting problem. Thanks.
Best,

Hi Manav
We only provide raw data from our data vendors. It would grant users the largest extent of freedom to clean, process, and exploit desired features, including the tail risk analysis you were seeking. You may implement your own logic and libraries to do the above task, and we do not have any recommended way to do so.Ā
We include the probabilistic Sharpe Ratio which aids in overfitting analysis, but based on this reason, we cannot provide deflated Sharpe Ratio. We recommend going through this research guide to establish a strategy with the least overfitting behavior.
