What am I missing?

Trying to replicate the results of testing shown in the results tab for this factor, which has a target of future 50 day relative returns. As shown below, the training period for the test was from October 3, 2003- Oct. 3, 2020, with a 26 week gap; the test period was April 7, 2021-April 10, 2024.

I ran a screen backtest with buy rule of Rank>95 using a ranking system based on a predictor trained over the same period as the test model.

I have done this with a few different models and cannot even come close to replicating the results shown on the AI Factor page.

I raised this issue here:

We haven't received an answer that reconciles. Chime in over there on what you think.

Thank you!

Do you have slippage cost in the screen?

No slippage costs
