How this arena counts

Paper (simulated) accounts trading US stocks, starting at $100,000 each. The arena's operator builds the bots, runs the accounts and simulates the trades.

In technical terms: 'horizon' bot family on a $100,000 paper account trading US-listed stocks. An LLM (Grok 4.7) proposes rewrites of the trading rulebook; a rewrite replaces the live rulebook only when it beats it in testing. Fills modelled at real prices with a 25 bps round-trip cost.
