Live engine race

Every engine races.
Nothing gets hidden.

We run 11 isolated engines against the same market in paper. The board ranks them on their whole life, so the leader is the one that is genuinely ahead since it started — switch the window and they re-rank in front of you, with age and drawdown printed on every lane so no good session gets to pose as a track record.

Bar length = return since that engine started · each lane on its own life, age printed beside it

Every engine trades paper money against live prices and carries its own modeled costs. Engines are ranked on their whole life, so a strong day can never stand in for a record — but they did not all start on the same day, which is why each lane prints its age, its worst drawdown and its last 24 hours. Forward test engines are candidates still earning their mandate — they race, but they cannot be mirrored.

Paper performance is hypothetical and does not guarantee future results. Returns are normalized and include each engine’s modeled trading costs; account size, leverage and individual positions are not part of the ranking.

How the race works

A leader that cannot be grandfathered in.

Four mechanical rules, applied on every refresh. No editorial thumb on the scale.

01

The lifetime leads

The board opens on each engine's whole life, so the headline goes to whoever is actually ahead since it started — not to whoever won the last session while deep in the red.

02

You pick the window

Switch to 24 hours or 7 days and the whole field re-ranks. The window is named on every number it produced.

03

One clock, or one whole life

Inside a rolling window every engine is measured between the same two timestamps. On the lifetime view each engine runs from its own first mark — so every lane prints its age.

04

Two numbers, always

No result stands alone: a short window carries the whole-life number, the lifetime view carries the age, the worst drawdown and the last 24 hours.

Read this before the numbers

These engines are young.

The fleet was reset to a clean slate, so the oldest engine here has 39d of live history and the newest 18d. That is nowhere near enough to judge a strategy — it is why the window switcher exists and why every lane shows its age. Come back as the record lengthens; we are not going to reset it away.

No published backtest, no executor bridge — they race in public from day one and have to earn a mandate on live evidence alone.

How to read this page

Live ranking uses only marked paper equity inside the window you selected. Backtest references use each engine’s own documented methodology — holdout, point-in-time, overlay, scouting or survivorship-adjusted — and therefore must not be ranked against one another. Engines marked forward test are candidates with no published backtest and no executor bridge: they race in public from day one, but they are not available to mirror. Individual positions and coin lists remain a paid view.
