The platform validates each strategy against four years of cross-venue market data and flags statistical overfitting before a result reaches a subscriber

DE, United States, 6th Aug 2026 – Sonar Sciences, a strategy-research platform for algorithmic and rules-based traders, gives pro traders a structured way to build a trading hypothesis, test it against four years of cross-venue price data, and see exactly where it holds up and where it breaks, before that strategy is ever shown to a subscriber or tied to a dollar of real capital.

The platform arrives at a moment when trading-signal marketplaces have grown faster than the tools that verify what those signals actually do. Retail platforms show equity curves. Broker forums show screenshots. Almost none of it separates a genuinely tested idea from a fitted one, and few of the tools available to independent traders were built to make that distinction visible in the first place.

Most traders can produce a backtest faster than they can tell you whether to trust it. Sonar Sciences tested the platform itself for six months before allowing a single result to be published on it, on the premise that the entire product fails the moment a number on the screen isn’t real. The validation layer exists to do the part most platforms skip: tell a pro trader when their own strategy is lying to them.

A workspace built around one question: does this actually hold up

Sonar Sciences‘ core workflow starts where most trading tools stop. A pro trader defines a strategy as an explicit, testable rule set, rather than a vague idea or a chart pattern, and runs it against Sonar Sciences‘ cross-venue data spanning four years across multiple asset classes and market regimes. The platform then returns model-level results, including a deflated Sharpe ratio calculation designed to flag when a strategy’s apparent performance is more a function of repeated testing than real edge, alongside walk-forward analysis, drawdown behavior, and out-of-sample checks that most independent traders have no repeatable way to run today.

That distinction matters more than it sounds. A strategy that looks strong on a single historical window can fall apart the moment market conditions shift, and the traders most exposed to that risk are usually the ones with the least tooling to catch it before it costs them. Sonar Sciences‘ validation layer exists specifically to surface that failure mode before a strategy reaches a live audience, not after.

Once a strategy clears validation, Sonar Sciences‘ Trader Lab gives the pro trader a full research environment to keep iterating: professional-grade charting, multi-timeframe analysis, an extensive indicator library, and bar-by-bar backtest replay with trades visualized directly on the chart. Every feature in the Lab is free today. Sonar Sciences‘ view is that a research tool should never be the thing standing between a trader and a properly tested idea, so the cost sits on the platform’s side of the ledger, not the trader’s.

What happens after a strategy is validated

A validated strategy can be published to Sonar Sciences‘ marketplace as a versioned, standardized recommendation stream, the kind of structured, machine-readable output that a broker or exchange connection can consume directly rather than a trader manually re-entering trades from a signal feed. Subscribers who follow a published strategy get a system-computed stats page rather than a self-reported screenshot, and every material event on the platform, publish, subscribe, execution, payout, is logged with a correlation ID for audit.

Money on the platform moves through an integer-exact, double-entry ledger, the same accounting discipline used in payment infrastructure, specifically because floating-point rounding has no place anywhere near a trader’s capital. Pro traders who publish a winning strategy earn a share of subscriber activity on that strategy, settled against that ledger, with identity verification required only at the point of payout rather than at every step of research and testing. Execution itself runs through Sonar Sciences‘ own pluggable connector layer, architected to support MT5 and exchange venues without rebuilding a strategy each time a new venue is added.

Sonar Sciences is explicit about where the platform stands today: live execution is being rolled out carefully, connector by connector, and the company is not marketing any capability as live before it has been verified as such. That sequencing, validate first, publish second, execute only once verified, is the same order the platform asks every pro trader to follow with their own strategies.

Three moves, one workflow

Sonar Sciences‘ team describes the platform as three moves rather than a feature list: prove it, publish it, get paid on it, in that order and never out of sequence.

The first move is proof. A pro trader writes down the rule, not just the intuition behind it, and Sonar Sciences runs that rule against the same four years of cross-venue history every other strategy on the platform is measured against, so results are comparable rather than cherry-picked. The deflated Sharpe ratio calculation exists because a high raw Sharpe ratio can simply mean a trader tested enough variations of a strategy until one of them got lucky. Deflating for that effect is standard practice in serious quantitative research and rare in retail-facing tools, and Sonar Sciences treats it as a gate rather than an optional metric.

The second move is publication, and only strategies that clear validation are eligible. A published strategy becomes a versioned recommendation stream, timestamped and immutable once live, so a subscriber following version 3 of a strategy knows exactly what changed if the pro trader later ships version 4.

The third move is payment, and it only activates once a strategy is both live and winning. Sonar Sciences takes a share of that activity rather than a flat subscription fee from the trader who built the strategy, which the company says is a deliberate choice to keep the incentive aligned with real performance rather than with volume of strategies published.

Why now

Interest in algorithmic and copy-style trading has grown steadily as retail traders look past discretionary strategies toward systems they can test and repeat, and a wider set of brokers and exchanges now expose the kind of API access that makes automated execution realistic for an individual trader rather than only a fund. That growth has outpaced the tooling available to verify whether a given system actually works, which is the gap Sonar Sciences is built to close.

Independent quant researchers and MT5 or Python-based strategy developers already have partial tools for parts of this workflow. Charting platforms are excellent for analysis but were not built to own the full path from research to publication. Broker-run signal marketplaces are built for distribution, not for disciplined testing. Full quant research environments exist but often require significant setup before a trader can see a usable result. Sonar Sciences is built for the trader in between: someone who already has a strategy or a prototype and wants a faster, more honest way to find out if it deserves to go further.

The traders Sonar Sciences is built for have usually already been burned once, either by their own overfit backtest or by someone else’s unverified claim. Sonar Sciences is not asking any pro trader to take its word that a strategy has an edge. It is built to be the place a trader goes to find out.

Availability

Sonar Sciences is free to use at sonar-sci.com. Pro traders get full use of Trader Lab and the validation engine at no cost, plus visibility on the marketplace once a strategy is published. A paid tier, Pro Desk, is planned for traders who need team, portfolio, and export capabilities beyond the core research workflow, with pricing and timing to be announced separately.

A pro trader who signs up can define a strategy and run it through the same evaluation the platform uses for every published result, with no minimum account size, no funding requirement, and no obligation to publish anything publicly. Traders can bring an existing MT5 expert advisor, a QuantConnect model, or a rule set that has only ever lived in a spreadsheet, and get the same structured evaluation.

The New York-trained photographer and director brings a decade of artistic vision to the U.S. fashion market

New York, United States, 6th Aug 2026 — Entre Reves (pronounced ahn-truh-rehv), the fashion backpack brand founded by photographer, bestselling author, and filmmaker Soorin Kim, officially launches in the United States. Since its founding in 2021, Entre Reves has built a devoted following — and now brings its vision to the global fashion stage. The name Entre Reves is French for “Between Dreams” — a phrase that captures both Kim’s personal philosophy and the brand’s core identity: a label made for those who are always in pursuit of something bigger.  

Soorin Kim’s story resonates deeply with the creative generation that defines New York. Educated at a prestigious New York design school where she studied photography, Kim published her debut photo essay book A New Yorker Shooting Youth at age 21, becoming a bestselling author. In 2013, her second book Beloved earned her a second bestseller, cementing her voice as one of the most distinctive young writers of her generation.  

Her lens soon attracted global attention. Kim served as the official photographer for a globally acclaimed K-pop mobile game project, capturing visual content for renowned artists. She has also collaborated with prominent musicians and top-tier artists, contributing to album artwork and editorial campaigns for leading fashion magazines. Expanding her creative practice further, Kim made her directorial debut with a music video before going on to direct her first short film, Me, Myself, You — which has screened at the Festival of Cinema in New York and film festivals around the world. 

A Brand Born from a Life Between Dreams  

Entre Reves was founded in 2021 with a clear point of view: that a backpack could be more than functional — it could be an expression of who you are and where you’re going. Rather than conventional materials, Entre Reves designs are crafted from jacquard, velvet, tweed, and faux fur, bringing a couture sensibility to everyday carry. The brand’s tagline “Carry Dreams” and its ethos “For Lovers & Dreamers” speak directly to a generation that refuses to separate ambition from aesthetics — a philosophy that has resonated with fans across all age groups, and that Kim now brings to the American market.  

“Entre Reves has always been about the people who are chasing something — a dream, a feeling, a version of themselves they haven’t reached yet,” said Soorin Kim, Founder and Creative Director. “New York is the city where I became who I am. Bringing the brand here feels like coming home.”  

With its U.S. presence anchored in Tribeca, New York, Entre Reves is now available at entrereves.com. The brand operates across New York and Seoul, reflecting its global identity.
