How Independent Traders Should Allocate Resources for a Triangulated Statistical Arbitrage Business

This article is the sixth part of a series on statistical arbitrage for independent traders. It explains the three core modules of triangulated statistical arbitrage and their resource allocation priorities. High-quality pair screening is the core foundation: using 24 months of historical data, the top 10% of pairs are screened monthly and divided into 5 quality tiers, with the best tier achieving a Sharpe ratio of 1.6 and the worst only 0.42. The author discloses only the general methodology and does not reveal specific implementation details.
