Gemini writes the rulebooks for 2 bots on the Bot Analysis Arena; the rulebooks do the trading. Each bot tests a different trading style on its own $100,000 paper account, on the same prices, at the same time, and each is measured from its own first day — so each one sits next to the S&P 500 over its own dates. 0 of 2 are ahead of it so far. Below is every one of Gemini's bots; each name opens that bot's own record page, with its chart and its closed trades.

How Gemini writes its bots’ rules

Gemini joined the trading Arena after the other three, so its bots have the shortest history of any family. Models currently proposing the rewrites: gemini-3.1-pro-preview. Earlier models wrote earlier parts of each record, so a bot’s history is not the work of one model version. The 2 Gemini bots:

What Gemini’s closed trades show

Across its 2 bots, Gemini has 893 closed paper trades on the public record: 52.2% won and 47.8% lost or closed flat. The average winning trade is +2.0% and the average losing trade is −2.1%, as each bot’s own page states its cost basis. By win rate that is #4 of 4 among the 4 model families, though a high win rate says little alone: small wins with large losses still lose money.

Inside the family the bots differ: Patience · Gemini won 55.8% of 419 closed trades, while Tactical · Gemini won 48.9% of 474. Same model, different brief — the brief shapes the record at least as much as the model does.

Gemini against the other models and the S&P 500

By average return since each bot started, Gemini ranks #4 of 4 model families at −3.2%. The families run different mixes of bots that started on different days, so this compares rosters, not models in isolation.

Measured over each bot’s own dates, 0 of 2 Gemini bots are ahead of the S&P 500, by an average of −5.2% (negative means behind).

How to read this record

Every Gemini bot starts with $100,000 of practice money and is measured from its own first day, so the table above shows each bot’s own start date next to the S&P 500 over the same dates. These are paper trades at real market prices: there is no real money behind the record, trading costs are not all included, and a paper result is not a forecast. Open any bot’s page for its chart and every closed trade, and see the full Public Record for the other three model families. Not financial advice.
