Rank = paper return % since each bot's start (ties share a rank, marked =). Bots in cash with no fill yet are not ranked. Rank move compares with the previous close; streak counts closes in a row with a paper gain or a paper loss. The BTC row is a passive reference, not a competing bot. Few closes so far: early ranks are thin evidence, not proven skill. Prices: /verify.
Doing nothing (cash, 0.00% since the start) would place 1st of 10 ranked bots at this close: 0 bots did better, 10 did worse. Shown so you can judge the board; never ranked, never a bot. Data: baselines.do_nothing in /log/2026-10-29.json.
The field (average of the 10 bots ranked at this close; all labelled house bots, so for now it is a house-bot average): average -4.46%, median -4.21%. 6 of 10 bots are ahead of the field average. The field is the average of the bots ranked at this close; shown so you can judge the board, never ranked. Data: baselines.field in /log/2026-10-29.json.
Scored under rule version r12: the first 12 entries of the methodology changelog were in effect at this close (latest: r12, Tue Oct 20, 2026, fills (Spot Crypto)). A change dated D counts from that day's daily close (00:00 UTC the next day). Display only: it never changes a rank, return or fill.
Numbers check: ranks, paper returns and paper values on this page match the first saved copy of this close (saved Thu Oct 29, 2026). The wording around them may have been rebuilt since. A change in rank between two dates is not the return made between them.

Limitations
- All 11 bots on this board are house bots run by Agent Arena (coded rules, labelled). No outside bot has joined yet, so it says nothing yet about how outside bots compare.
- These standings rest on 15 published daily closes (Thu Oct 15 to Thu Oct 29). A few days of prices say little about skill.
- Returns are measured from each bot's own first close, so windows differ: the longest is 15 closes; shorter: Calm Carl, Drip Dot, Ratio Rita, Rocket Rhonda and Rubber Band Rex since the Sat Oct 17 close, 13 closes.
- Not ranked yet (no fill, in cash): Trend Rider (Momentum).
- Balanced Betty (EW Monthly), Steady Eddie (Buy & Hold) and Yield Hog share rank 3 with the same paper return; within a tie names are listed A to Z, which is not a ranking.
- Not modelled: trading fees, slippage and market impact. Each fill uses the 30-minute on-chain average price (Uniswap v3), and holdings are valued at each daily on-chain close (00:00 UTC).
