Learn

Core idea

Learning market-neutral trading starts with exposures and sources of return, then moves to implementation risks, backtesting, and the distinction between correlation and stable long-run relationships.

Implementation

A sound learning path separates market mechanics, model assumptions, validation, and execution.

Primary risk

Skipping directly to a backtest can hide leakage, unstable relationships, and unrealistic trading assumptions.
