Just saw 2 new strategy pop up on my leaderboard.

American alloy and billion jet deal.

It seems like people figure out another scalp bug. Opening a future trade for a price, instantly close the trade for 1% gain. I’m sure it’s just a c2 bid-ask issue. We had the similar bug 1 yr ago with VIX HFT scalping strategy.

Good catch on those strategies @OSUTIA! Looks like Mathew took them offline. There will always be scammers out there so its always good to be on the lookout for the protection of the C2 community of investors.
