FOR TRADERS & QUANT RESEARCHERS • CACTUSQUANT
See a strategy tested honestly before you trust it
CactusQuant is a multi-strategy quant research platform. Screen the market, follow the day’s trade signals, and research rules and reinforcement-learning strategies in the CactusQuant Lab. Every policy is validated walk-forward and measured against a buy-and-hold baseline, one round trip at a time. Watch the walkthrough, then set up a free account in about two minutes.
Short on time? The two-minute walkthrough covers the options wheel end to end, from cash-secured puts through assignment to covered calls. Then explore the live platform at cactusquant.com

Why most backtests flatter the strategy
A strategy tuned on the same history it is graded on will nearly always look great, because it has memorised the past rather than learned anything about it. Leave out commissions and slippage, skip the comparison against simply holding the stock, and a mediocre idea can look like an edge. CactusQuant is built the other way round. Research happens on one window, the grade comes from data the policy has never seen, and the result is always set next to a baseline.
What the demo shows you
The demo follows four steps from start to finish. You will take the same path in your own account, on the tickers you care about.
It finds the candidates
Wheel Candidates and Single-Stock Candidates are scored and refreshed every weekday. A name makes the single-stock list only when it clears the full gate: a 100% Buy opinion, three green arrows, a bullish Turtle Trade Channel, and enough liquidity. The list is ordered by signal freshness and option liquidity, not by predicted return.
It shows its work
Every run in the Lab carries an honesty badge showing how far its evidence goes, from simulation through shadow to out-of-sample. No simulated number is ever presented as live performance. Trained Wheel RL policies are compared against four baselines rather than shown on their own.
It tells you when to look
Turn on email alerts for each strategy and you will hear about it the evening after a trading day when its signals fire. Signal Insights adds agent-written notes to the day’s standout signals, such as earnings proximity and gap checks, so you start from context instead of a bare ticker.
Onboarding is four short steps
There is no setup project and no credit card for the Free plan. You tell us your trading experience, how you want to hear about signals, and which broker you use, then accept the terms. That’s it: you land in the screener on the Free plan and can upgrade whenever you need more.

Built for four kinds of trader
Options wheel traders
Cash-secured puts, assignment, covered calls. Scored wheel candidates, high-premium OTM put finders, and a Wheel RL policy that has to beat four baselines before it counts. See how the wheel works.
Swing & single-stock traders
Buy, hold or sell decisions measured against cost-aware baselines, plus daily trade signals. A “new” badge marks a fresh Turtle Trade Channel flip.
Intraday options traders
A 17-action intraday space covering stock, single calls and puts, verticals, condors and butterflies. Every multi-leg idea is researched the same honest way. See the intraday explainer.
Quant researchers
Configure runs across as many as 20 tickers, send off agent research, and read shadow reports and backtests with honesty badges attached. The Lab is where rules and RL policies earn their keep.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to get started?
About two minutes. Onboarding has four steps, and the Free plan needs no payment details. You go straight to the screener, and you can change your alert preferences at any time.
Does CactusQuant place trades for me?
No. CactusQuant is a research platform. It helps you screen, study signals, and test strategies honestly, and you decide what to do in your own brokerage account. Plans differ in research depth and data, never in order execution.
Is the market data real-time?
On the Free plan, data is delayed 15 minutes and history is limited to recent weeks. Pro and above add real-time data and 3 to 5 years of history for backtesting.
Why should I believe the backtests?
You shouldn’t take anything on faith, and the platform is designed so you don’t have to. Policies are graded walk-forward on data they never trained on and set against a buy-and-hold baseline. Every result carries an honesty badge showing how far its evidence goes, and simulated results are never shown as live performance.
How does this relate to the CactusQuant Systematic Fund?
The same patent-pending research engine (U.S. Provisional App. No. 64/098,125) underpins both. A subscription gives you access to the research platform only. It is not an interest in the fund, and it does not give you access to the fund’s trading. See the Systematic Fund for more.
Can I talk to someone first?
Yes. Book a call and we will walk through the Lab on the tickers and strategies you care about.
Watch it once, then test every idea the honest way
The walkthrough takes two minutes, and onboarding takes about as long. After that, every strategy you research is measured against data it has never seen.
