The Gap
Most Strategies Look Good on Paper or Excel, Few Survive Real Markets.
You've done the research. You've built the model. But many backtests overlook survivorship bias, real trading costs, tax drag, and how strategies behave during market crises. Spreadsheets struggle with walk-forward logic and point-in-time data. Many online platforms simplify assumptions or limit historical depth. Institutional-grade systems cost £10,000+ per year. There's a gap between theoretical performance and real capital. Fincanva closes it.

Fincanva Simulates Strategies as They Actually Behaved in Real Markets
Institutional Grade Rigour
Run realistic backtests using clean, survivorship-free data stretching back to the early 1800s. Walk-forward methodology eliminates look-ahead bias: every decision uses only the data available at that point in time. Costs, taxes, slippage, reinvestment rules, and asset delistings are built in, not bolted on.
Multi-Strategy Portfolios
Combine multiple strategies like momentum, value, dividend growth, sector rotation, into one structured portfolio. Apply advanced allocation methods including Risk Parity, Modern Portfolio Theory, and Beta Neutral. Set rebalancing schedules, capital constraints, and dynamic risk-off rules. This is how institutional portfolios are constructed, now accessible without writing code.
Real-World Stress Testing
See how your strategy performed during the 2008 financial crisis, the COVID crash, rising rate environments, and different market regimes. Analyse drawdowns, volatility, rolling returns, and sensitivity to start dates. Compare strategy variations side by side, instantly.

Start freeOutgrown Your Spreadsheet?
Still backtesting in Excel, or feeling limited by your current tools?
If your current setup feels limited, overly simplified, or disconnected from real market behaviour, you're not alone. Spreadsheets struggle with walk-forward logic and point-in-time data. Many online tools offer simplified simulations with limited historical depth or restricted allocation methods. Fincanva provides deeper, more flexible portfolio simulation designed to reflect how strategies actually behave in real markets.
