Where Skewlab fits.

One tool, all markets.
US and European stocks, ETFs, crypto, currencies, futures and bonds in the same engine. No separate terminals for European markets, which most quant platforms don't cover at all.
Sophisticated portfolios, no code.
Calendar, drift or conditional rebalancing, staged entry on drawdowns, equity-risk hedging — the depth that usually requires writing code is configured here.
Institutional analysis, not just a curve.
Stress tests on real crises, Monte Carlo, tail metrics and an institutional report ready to share. The tool to validate an idea before putting real capital behind it.
