How to calculate Sharpe Ratio
Conceptually: (return − risk‑free rate) ÷ standard deviation of returns, over a specified lookback window and sampling frequency. On BitcoinQuant, Sharpe values reflect our preferred-equity historical return series and the risk‑free rate assumption shown on the dashboard.
Why does Sharpe Ratio matter?
Sharpe ratio helps compare preferred series on a risk-adjusted basis—useful when two securities have similar yields but very different realized volatility or drawdowns.
