Summary
Trading with DaviddTech documents a week-long head-to-head competition between three AI models — GPT-6 Astra, Claude Fable 5.1, and Grok — tasked with building the most profitable automated trading strategy. The experiment uses TradingView for strategy development and backtesting, paired with tradingkit.com, a free MCP server that the creator’s community has used for nearly one million backtests in under four months.
The video walks through the full setup step by step: downloading the ChatGPT desktop app, connecting to TradingView and TradingKit’s MCP server, onboarding each AI agent with consistent prompts, and launching all three on a simultaneous one-week sprint. Grok stood out by autonomously building a full trading desk with watch lists and optimizers, while other agents required intervention after prematurely concluding they had found optimal strategies around the eight-hour mark.
Key takeaways include the challenge of agent persistence over long-horizon tasks, the critical importance of forward-testing strategies on unseen data to avoid overfitting, and the practical impact of AI usage limits on automated workflows. The creator emphasizes that AI has compressed days of manual backtesting into fully automated pipelines. All prompts, tool links, and setup instructions are available in the video description.
