Event Highlights: Strategy Effectiveness as the Core, A Technical Hackathon Benchmarking Real Market Scenarios
This hackathon focuses on the "Ability of AI to integrate with real-time market structure," assessing based on the essence of strategy capability rather than winning based on programming speed or interface functionality.

High-Frequency Data Processing Performance
The model's robustness and execution efficiency under high-dimensional, high-velocity data.
Volatility and Drawdown Control Capability
