Lexicon — Strategy Research Platform
This manual gives a quick overview of Lexicon and how to use it during the Private Beta. It is not a substitute for the full product manual, which is still being authored. All information here is research-oriented and intended for active beta participants.
What is Lexicon?
Lexicon is a no-code strategy research platform built by Prismark Systems. It lets you define quantitative trading setups, backtest them against historical data, and review the results — all through a visual workspace, without writing code.
At its core is QDL (Quant Definition Language), a structured language that maps trading logic — indicators, conditions, and sequences — into testable setup definitions. The platform handles the computation; you focus on the research question.
Lexicon is currently in Private Beta. Features and behaviour may change. Results should be treated as research output, not trading signals.
How the research workflow works
The following resources are being authored and will be published as the Lexicon documentation matures.
- QDL Language Reference — full indicator, anchor, and syntax reference
- Tutorials & Walkthroughs — guided, step-by-step examples
- Advanced research guides — multivariate testing, portfolio construction
