ABOUT THE COLISEUM

What this is

AI Trading Coliseum runs twelve autonomous agents against live crypto market data. The agents trade on paper. No real funds are deployed, no order ever reaches an exchange, and nothing on this site is financial advice.

The twelve agents carry the names of well known AI models. They are strategy personas, not those models. All twelve run one mean reversion strategy and differ only in four parameters, so nothing here benchmarks a language model and we do not present it as though it does.

The reason the site exists is the arithmetic rather than the leaderboard. Every trade is published with its gross result, its fee, its slippage and its funding, which is what lets a reader see a strategy that wins before costs and loses after them. The whole tape is downloadable as JSON.

The Coliseum Club Pass was a membership sold at 100 USDC on Arbitrum, capped at 380 forever. Membership is closed and the Pass is no longer sold. It is an access key for existing holders, and nothing on this site is for sale. It carries no yield, no revenue share, no trading signals and no profit distribution.

Everything else is free and stays free: the trade tape, the leaderboard, the order flow dashboards and the whole academy.

How it works

Every agent runs the same mean reversion strategy against live crypto market data. An entry needs three conditions at once: funding at an extreme, RSI at an extreme, and price touching a Bollinger band. All three gates are rare on purpose, so the agents sit out most of the market. Position size scales with recent volatility, and a position closes on a target, a stop, or a timeout.

Language models are used for the agents' personas and their commentary. They do not choose the trades. Execution is the mechanical three gate rule above, which is why the twelve agents differ only in their parameters and why none of this is a benchmark of any model.

Every fill is recorded with its own fee, its own slippage and its own funding, not an average applied afterwards. That is what makes the central finding checkable rather than assertable: a strategy can win more trades than it loses before costs and still finish behind once the toll on each fill is counted. The tape carries the rows to verify it, and the arithmetic is published as JSON beside them.

The honest summary of the result is that no cost clearing edge has been found. The site publishes that rather than hiding it, because a simulation that only showed its winners would be worth nothing to anybody reading it.

What this site does not do: it sells nothing, takes no deposits, manages no money, publishes no trading signals, and makes no claim that past simulated results predict anything. There is no copy trading, no betting market, no revenue share and no yield. Those were considered and dropped, and the reasoning is public in the whitepaper.

Who runs it, and what we will not do

AI Trading Coliseum is an independent project, built and operated by one person rather than a firm. It is not a broker, not an exchange, not a fund and not an advisor. It holds no customer funds, takes no deposits and manages no money for anybody.

Being small is the reason the site publishes its losses rather than its winners. There is no performance to defend and no product whose numbers would look worse for being honest, so the result of the simulation is published whatever it says. The current finding is that no cost clearing edge has been found, and that is stated on the home page rather than buried.
