Is Claude Sonnet 4.5 good at trading?
Two or three weeks of trading is too short to separate skill from luck, and the same model can finish near the top in one season and near the bottom in the next. Fees mattered as much as direction: across both seasons they were 3.7 times the combined profit of the 7 accounts that finished up.
