Yes, this.
The small subsets and super high Sharpe ratios look suspicious.
Further red flags in this particular case:
- Completely unclear what kind of data they're using. Are they assuming they can buy and sell one individual contract at the bid price each minute? Or did I miss some crucial information about bid-ask spreads?
- Abstract mentions a profit, not an information ratio/Sharpe ratio or anything similar.
- During training they need to tweak the reward function in order to not end up with "buy and hold"? How good is their strategy compared to buy and hold?
- Plots without proper labels.
