DSR Methodology
DSR = PSR(SR̂₀) per Bailey & López de Prado (2014). SR̂₀ = 0.6181 (expected best Sharpe from 7 random filter trials).
Testing multiple filters on the same data increases the chance of finding a good result by luck. DSR measures whether this result clears the multiple-testing threshold. Pass threshold: DSR ≥ 90%. Current: 0.0%.
