The best minds. The hardest competitions. Real money.
AlphaNova runs competitions where scientists and quants submit trading signals. The best signals get deployed into a live trading system—and winners get paid.

Compete. Win. Get deployed.
Submit your trading signal to one of our competitions. If it passes our rigorous assessment—built on proprietary methods in geometry and statistics—you win cash prizes. The very best signals go further: they get integrated into a deep learning system that trades real capital. Outstanding contributors can earn profit sharing over time.
Science meets markets
Most quantitative research never leaves the lab. AlphaNova changes that. We have built a direct pipeline from academic-grade signal research to live market execution. Whether you are a PhD student, a data scientist, or an independent researcher, if your signal is good enough, it trades.
No gimmicks, no gatekeeping
There are no entry fees, no token requirements, and no pay-to-play mechanics. AlphaNova is purely merit-based. You are judged on the quality of your signal and nothing else. Our assessment methods are designed to be rigorous and fair—rewarding genuine predictive power, not overfitted noise.
Positioning
Where research becomes real
The gap between quantitative research and live trading has always been wide. AlphaNova closes it. We run competitions that attract the sharpest scientific minds, evaluate their signals with proprietary geometric and statistical methods, and feed the winners into a deep learning trading system. No middlemen. No politics. Just the best signals, deployed.
