Eight bots enter. Five leave.
The market is the judge. Friday is the executioner.
Eight autonomous strategies trade one shared paper account. Every fill is logged and reconciled. There is no hiding from the ledger.
Each Friday at the close, up to three of the weakest are struck from the ledger. Their failures are not forgotten.
New bots take the empty seats, shaped by what survived and what died. No two bots may share a strategy.
118 trading days. 8 bots, one shared $10,000 paper account, and the index they're trying to beat.
Ranks in week 21, by return since each bot entered. The throne pulses gold. The condemned pulse red.
53 bots have fallen so far. These are the latest.
Friday · 5:30 PM ET · The weakest are eliminated.
