PBO / Selection Bias Calculator

122
A calculator for selection bias in strategy backtests, based on the False Strategy Theorem. Enter the number of strategy variants you searched, the variance of their Sharpe ratios, and your single best variant's Sharpe; it returns the expected maximum Sharpe a no-edge search of that size would produce, and flags whether your best clears that screen.

How to read it
If your best Sharpe does not beat the expected maximum under the null, it is plausibly just the luckiest of many trials. Important: clearing the expected maximum is a screening threshold, not a statistical significance test.

Honest by design
- No buy/sell signals. It reads no price data; it is a pure analytics table computed from your inputs.
- Non-repainting by construction.
