Hello. Processing speed has been restored and should now be operating normally.

Hello. The processing speed has been stabilized and should now be working normally.

Hello.

Submissions can't be stopped or started manually. They are always being calculated, so if yours looks stuck at 0%, it is most likely just waiting in the calculation queue. Occasional load spikes make submissions take longer than usual. You don't need to worry. Every submission will be calculated, so yours will get its turn.

If you'd rather not wait, you can remove it. There's a Delete button in the Candidates tab. I understand it's frustrating that the same isn't possible from the Checking tab, so we're adding a Delete button there soon.

Thanks for the report.

Hello.

The fix is to delete the submissions, not the strategies. Open the Submissions page and delete the relevant ones there, and they will drop out of the reports. For future, if the contest has already started, and they can no longer be deleted from your side, write us with their names or IDs, and we will remove them for you.

This behavior is by design, not a bug. A strategy and a submission are two different things. The strategy is the notebook in JupyterLab; a submission is a frozen copy of it, made at the moment you submit. The correlation checks, the leaderboard, and the correlation reports all reference submissions. Deleting a strategy only removes the notebook, which is what the "deleted" tab shows. The submissions created from it stay in the pool, which is why the leaderboard and the "correlation above 0.9" reports still point to them.

@nongnat Hi,

1. Ranking metric is Sharpe Ratio of the Contest Period (specifically for Q24 Contest it is April 1, 2026 - July 31, 2026).

2. Unique user - each user can only win one prize .

3. The prize structure is the same as all earlier competitions - allocation to top 7 submissions with structure $1M / $750K / $500K / $100K / $50K × 3

4. The notebook example/template is made for Q24 Contest. Scale date in the template is chosen randomly just as simulation, to present how the scaling function works. Q24 dates are:

• Last date for Q24 submissions -> March 31, 2026
• Scale date -> July 31, 2026
• Live payouts -> September 1, 2026 - September 1, 2027

5. 'In Contest' - submissions selected to participate to certain contest, and contest is still in the Contest Period (like Q24 at the moment).
   'After Contest' - submissions from all earlier completed contests.
   Strategies in Candidates, cannot be selected to running contests in which Entry phase is over (Contest Period started).

6. SubmissionEquity <= 1.0 - no payouts. SubmissionEquity > 1.0 but underperforms the benchmark - no payouts. SubmissionEquity > 1.0 and overperforms the benchmark, there are payouts calculated by the formula.

7. Payouts are calculated at the end of each month of Payout phase, based on the profit generated relative to the benchmark (only new profits):
   Prize * 0.1 * (PayoutScore – 1.0),
   which means 10% of the profit generated.

You can also check the Official rules for Q24 https://quantiacs.com/contest/24.
Please feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Best regards,

@copper-herring ok, thanks for reporting, we will

@rubber-metapod We are not running any futures contest right now.

Hi, the progress depends on many submissions are in the queue.

@black-magmar Yes.

@optical-turtle The Q24 entries will be updated soon.

@vg2001 It has been fixed, sorry

@antinomy Dear antinomy, thanks for the comment. We believe that there is a problem with the asset selection in your submission. The Q23 contest is aimed to trade assets belonging to the full SP500 universe, it is not a Nasdaq-100 contest.

@svyable Hi,
sorry for late answer, no we don't provide that option, but we will think about adding it in future.

@wool-hypno Which codes?

@granite-ditto Hi, the first source of information is the documentation at:

https://quantiacs.com/documentation/en/

In addition, we recommend you to check the template notebook available at:

https://github.com/quantiacs/Q24-crypto-guide/blob/master/strategy.ipynb

Quantiacs provides a built-in filter for selecting the top crypto assets according to the "liquid" field as follows:

is_liquid = data.sel(field='is_liquid')

@green-flareon Thanks. The live phase of the Q23 is running. Quants can join any contest during the submission phase. Q24 is on.

@magenta-muskrat Hi, announcing soon.

@tim-hub Hi,

the template processing has not finished yet, it is on day by day processing (currently beginning of 2023). The reason of the error is that helper function tries to compare stat after 2022-08-31, which is not possible if processing date is 2020-01-01 for example. It doesn't affect the output (weights), and now you don't see this error because processing date is after 2022-08-31. If you had cloned the template and run it, the error would not have occurred.

@lookman The answer we sent to your e-mail address bounced back.

@tim-hub No, it is not. Obviously no payment can be done without providing coordinates.
