Eight Years Ahead

From Research Project to Industrial-Scale Deployment

2016

The Starting Point

Industrial-grade standards, not experimentation: For us, research has never been an end in itself, but the foundation for scalable systems. Rather than chasing the market with forecasts, we built an engine capable of processing complex market data in milliseconds, supported by a backtesting system that can handle up to 14 million price data points per second.

The Transition to Live Trading

2024 marked a pivotal moment: the transition from scientific validation to live trading. Since then, our models have proven themselves under real market conditions, generating cumulative trading volume of €3.2 billion as of 2025.

It Is Important to Us That Professional and Institutional Investors Can Not Only See Our Results, but Also Independently Understand and Verify Them.

What Makes Alphawave Strong

Alphawave is a specialised firm for quantitative absolute-return strategies. Together with a strategic partner, we have invested more than €7 million in a scientifically validated trading infrastructure, enabling us to systematically capture market inefficiencies as a source of returns for our investors.

What makes us strong: Our strategies undergo a rigorous, multi-stage robustness assessment—much like a flight simulator. We test them statistically across as many market environments as possible, select only those that demonstrate consistently stable performance, and deploy them in live trading only after they have met our strict criteria.
This is how we combine data-driven algorithms, robust technology and disciplined risk management to create return opportunities that appeal to both institutional investors and discerning private investors.
