Editorial Policy

Our standards for accuracy, independence and how we handle corrections.

Accuracy and review

Content is drafted from established theory and reputable sources and reviewed before publication. Each page carries a last-reviewed date. We distinguish clearly between mathematical facts, model assumptions, exchange/regulatory rules and rules of thumb, and we never present a backtest or example as a promise of results.

No hype

We do not promote 'holy grail' strategies, guaranteed-profit systems or specific trades. Where we describe a strategy family, we give its assumptions, failure modes and risks with equal weight. Our aim is genuine understanding, not engagement or sales.

Independence

BacktestGyan is independent and educational. We do not accept payment to promote brokers, platforms or products, and no page is a recommendation. Any future affiliate links or sponsorship will be disclosed clearly on the relevant page.

Corrections

We fix errors promptly. If you spot a mistake, tell us via the contact page; material corrections are noted with an updated review date and, where relevant, in our update history.

No investment advice

Nothing on BacktestGyan is investment, trading, legal or tax advice. We are not SEBI-registered. See the SEBI Disclaimer and Risk Disclosure.
