Trade Bots: A Technical Analysis Simulation (tuxdb.com)

▶

The day has finally come - Trade Bots version 1.0 release! We can't thank our fans enough for their patience and support as we've worked toward this initial presentation of the game. As mentioned in our last post, we completely refactored the engine for the game from the ground up, improving simulation speeds dramatically. We've also quashed many bugs brought to us by our beta testers, for whom we are eternally grateful. We will continue to support and update the game (I will be personally watching the community hub like a hawk) as well as listen to feedback to improve the experience. As a reminder, a few features will not make it into this initial release but will be added in (free) updates. These include:

Modular nodes in advanced bots (making your own nodes as nested sequences of other nodes)
Paper / Backtesting modes in advanced bots
Leaderboards
Custom Data Import

We will again note that neural networks and bot import/export features are in beta and are somewhat lacking in presentation at the moment, but they are functional. For the next release, we are tinkering with adding a mission system so that people struggling with the game have a way earn more - we are especially interested in feedback about how the game can be better balanced and more satisfying to play. As part of our non-profit mission, Cinq-Mars Media makes our games freely available to current students and teachers. As mentioned in our previous note, this will be after the initial launch period so we can focus entirely on patching any bugs found by the community. The publish date for the site where students and teachers can redeem free codes will be announced within the first month of release. In the meantime, please feel free to shoot us an email about manual verification, but please be patient, as this initial release period can be a tremendous whirlwind, particularly when trying to patch the many bugs that are sure to crop up. Again, thank you all for your support and please reach out to us at info@cinqmarsmedia.org with any questions or just to say "hi". We always love hearing from you. Thanks!

Trade Bots is an innovative new educational simulation game where the player is given an unknown stock, ETF or cryptocurrency at a random time in the past, and challenged to buy and sell the asset using only technical analysis concepts learned along the way. By appreciating the fundamentals for how to trade based solely on patterns and technical indicators, the player can gradually unlock various upgrades that help to expedite and automate trading. The project essentially gamifies a process known as "backtesting" in economics, where a trading strategy is simulated against historic data. This conceit is presented as an elaborate idle game, wherein the player upgrades the speed of simulation, margin equity, advanced indicators and automation techniques over time to maximize profit.

Over the course of the campaign, the player designs intricate trading bots using a custom-built visual node editor. The engine is highly flexible and accommodates practically any trading strategy imaginable while requiring no programming background. These bots are easily importable and exportable such that they can be shared with our community of investment enthusiasts.

The game is designed by the non-profit responsible for the 2019 hit The Devil's Calculator, named one of PAX's 10 best Indie Games of the Year.
