- Everyone can upload strategies they created themselves (and never shared online) to Gekko Plus.
- They will stay your strategies, I won't share them with anyone else. You give me the right to run the strategy in simulations (backtests & paper traders)
- I will run all participating strategies for 25 days.
- Their results are shown in realtime in a leaderboard
- At the end of contest the creator of the strategy will win 0.1 BTC.
After the contest I'd like to keep using all strategies (but you are in control, you can delete them at any time and they are clearly marked as created by you) for the Gekko Plus platform: They will only be used for simulations but as soon as a Gekko Plus member wants to run the strategy with real funds, they can do so through the platform (not able to download it) - if they do you will get paid for this.

Hi Mike, I just submitted my strategy to the competition.. a couple of questions.
1. There wasn't an option to set the warmup / required history size on the upload form. My strategy requires 1000 candles of back data to prime the moving averages etc.. what can we do?
2. Will you start the strategies on an appropriates min past the hour? As you know strategies give back different results when running at different mins past the hour. On my version of Gekko I've built a work around so no matter when I start the strat it always adjusts the run time.. say if I start it at 10:32 it will adjust it to 10:35 for a 5 min strategy.
Cheers,
Richard.
