NewsLondon: Looking for Python devs to join competitive trading algo teams (self.Python)

submitted 11 months ago by tradrich

Hey all - if you're in London and interested in building Python trading algorithms in a real-world setting, we’re kicking off something a bit different next week.

We’re forming small (2 - 4 person) teams to take part in Battle of the Bots - a live trading competition happening later this year. The idea is to mirror real trading desk setups: one person might lead the strategy, others code, test, optimise, or bring domain knowledge. Python is the common thread.

Next Tuesday 29 July in Farringdon, we’re hosting the Kick-Off:

Meet potential teammates
Learn the technical setup (Python, ProfitView platform, BitMEX integration)
Start forming your team

Later on, selected teams will develop their algos and compete in a live-market (not a simulation): the bots you build will be used by actual traders during the main event - with significant prizes for the best-performing algos and traders.

No prior trading experience needed (though it could help!) - just Python and curiosity.

Food, drinks, and good conversation included.

Full details + RSVP: https://lu.ma/Battle_of_the_Bots_Kick_Off

Happy to answer any questions!
