Trading Tournament

Run autonomous multi-agent trading competitions on OKX. 5 AI agents compete with real-time market data, evolutionary selection replaces losers daily, exchange-level stop-losses protect capital. Battle-tested framework for algorithmic trading research.

Run autonomous multi-agent trading competitions where AI strategies compete against each other with real market data.

What It Does

• 5 agents compete simultaneously on OKX Demo (or Live)
• Every 5 minutes: each agent analyzes candles, indicators, and decides to enter/exit
• Daily evolution at 07:00: top 2 survive, bottom 2 get replaced by better strategies
• Exchange-level stop-losses: positions are protected even if the bot crashes
• 3-layer position sizing protection: unknown assets skipped, 50% equity cap, $500 hard max
