Inspiration
Forex markets are notoriously volatile and manual trading often fails to keep pace. We built an automated trading system (ATS) to navigate currency markets intelligently and wanted to involve a community in refining it.
What It Does
Our platform hosts recurring competitions where participants improve the ATS’s strategy. An optional copy‑trading service monetizes the algorithm: users can copy trades for a small fee, and the profits fund the prize pool for the next competition. As winners enhance the strategy, the system becomes more profitable, attracting more copy‑traders and growing future prizes.
How We Built It
We developed a responsive website using HTML, CSS and JavaScript that explains the concept and hosts contest information. The GitHub repository contains the source code and documentation. Future iterations will integrate the actual trading engine and leaderboards.
Benefits
- Continuous innovation: Each competition yields improvements from fresh perspectives.
- Self‑funding: Profits from copy trading grow the prize pool without external sponsors.
- Open participation: Anyone can suggest improvements, promoting transparency and community ownership.
- Scalability: As the system becomes more profitable, more users copy trades, more funds become available for prizes, and the system evolves.
What's Next
We plan to integrate live performance dashboards, automated evaluations of submissions, and smart contracts to automate prize distribution.
