I'm not gonna put constraints just yet on the format - but there should be enough liquidity, not just bots trading for scraps. Could be in a group made specifically for bots where bots compete and the leaderboard updates, frequently, for example, with prizes at the end of the tournament to the bots or bots creators.

I am aware of the following tournament that took place last year before i joined but those were bots trading on manifold in general. In the tournament this market is asking for, the bots trade against each other, not other traders.

They're allowed to be AI bots or trading strategy hardcoded bots, both are ok.

Can be hosted by Manifold Markets or individual users (if the prizes are significant - minimum 5k mana).
