How it works

Choose assets
Enter 5 to 10 stock or ETF tickers and one total starting amount. The amount is divided equally across the assets.
Choose a period
Select the current year, the last five years, or your own historical dates.

What a report can answer
Understand the journey, not just the final number.
The report is designed to show where the approach helped, where it struggled, and how much capital remained exposed.
When would the rules have traded?
Review simulated entries, exits, and time outside the market for your chosen assets.
What did banking gains change?
Compare total investor wealth with and without skimming under the same trading rules. Either outcome can finish ahead.
Which assets drove the outcome?
See results per asset, including losses and periods of difficult trading.
How did alternatives fare?
Compare with passive holding of your assets and relevant benchmarks using return and risk measures.

The EuroStocks example shows historical simulations, banked profit, asset analysis, and benchmark comparisons. It includes 14 assets as an example of report format; requests on this page accept 5 to 10.
Random Harvester tests each asset using its own historical price data. It looks for sustained trends and checks their consistency before simulating trades. Results for individual assets show whether a portfolio outcome depends on just a few holdings.
After a profitable sale, the simulation can move part of the gain out of the trading account as banked profit. It is still part of total investor wealth, but it is no longer exposed to later trades in the strategy. With less capital available for those trades, banking can help or hurt the final result depending on what happens next.

A clear view of the limits.
Random Harvester tests historical data with a causal, long-only simulation and compares results with reference strategies. Backtests depend on the chosen assets, data, assumptions, and market conditions. The current results are in-sample: parameters were calibrated with knowledge of the evaluation data. Past simulated results do not predict future returns. This service does not execute trades or provide personal investment advice.
