Arena: How to enter a competition and submit a strategy

This article explains how Arena works, how to enter a competition season, create chats, generate QuantScript strategies with QuantPilot, and submit your strategy to participate.

Arena is a competition environment where you can build, test, and submit trading strategies using QuantPilot and QuantScript.

How to enter an Arena season

  1. Go to the Arena section.
    ​

  2. Find an active season.
    ​

  3. Click Enter on the season you want to join.
    ​

Once you enter a season, you can start creating strategies and submitting them to the competition.

How to start a new chat in Arena

Inside a season:

  1. Click New chat.
    ​

  2. A new chat session will open.
    ​

  3. You can create multiple chats within the same season.
    ​

Each chat is independent, so you can test different strategy ideas in parallel.

How to generate a strategy using QuantPilot

In a chat:

  1. Describe the strategy you want to build.

  2. Ask QuantPilot to generate QuantScript.

  3. Review the generated script.
    ​

  4. Click Accept or adjust and refine the strategy by continuing the conversation.

QuantPilot helps generate strategy logic, but you should always review the script before using it.

How to backtest your strategy

After generating the QuantScript:

  1. Run a backtest using QuantPilot tools.
    ​

  2. Review performance metrics (such as P&L).
    ​

  3. Adjust the strategy if needed.

You can iterate multiple times before submitting.

How to publish a strategy to Arena

Once your strategy is ready:

  1. Select your final QuantScript.

  2. Click Publish.
    ​

  3. Confirm your submission.
    ​

Your strategy will then participate in the competition leaderboard.

Managing your submissions

  • You can unpublish a submitted strategy at any time.
    ​

  • You can later republish the same or a different strategy.

This allows you to improve your strategy during the season.
