Trading Sandbox Competition: What Happens After the Backtest 📊

A backtest can tell you how a strategy would have performed against historical data. It doesn’t necessarily tell you how the same logic will behave as market conditions change.

That’s where the Trading Sandbox Competition adds another layer of testing.

Participants can run their Spot and Perpetual strategies with virtual funds and observe how they behave in a live simulated environment. A strategy that looked consistent in historical data may produce very different results when the market starts moving in another way.

It also makes it possible to compare different trading approaches. A system built around frequent entries will behave very differently from one that waits for a small number of setups. Running both in the same environment gives you a way to evaluate those differences without putting real capital behind them.

The current competition runs through September 30.
