This is a really interesting question, and of massive practical importance if you are managing systematic strategies. To generalize a bit -- someone tells you they have a strategy with a Sharpe of S. What questions should you be asking about the strategy to verify that it's real?https://twitter.com/o_wutang/status/1359686542466445312 …

for that multi-strat model by the combo producing a true Sharpe of ~0 what do you mean/what mechanism would lead to that? Or is it just that the backtest is overly optimistic/could be the overfitting and I'm reading too much into it

I mean that it’s very easy to find 10 strategies with a backtest Sharpe of 1 and a true Sharpe of 0, if you combine them then you have a multi-strat that has a backtest Sharpe of 3+ but still has a true Sharpe of 0.
