The creator tested two AI models, GPT-6 Astra and Fable 5.1, by giving each $1,000 to develop trading strategies for Bitcoin on Kalshi, finding Fable’s more sophisticated and conservative approach outperformed Astra’s, resulting in a 20% gain versus a 60% loss. They then deployed Fable’s strategy live using a Hostinger VPS, achieving a 70% return over 48-72 hours, emphasizing the experiment’s educational value in AI trading bot setup rather than guaranteed profits.

In this video, the creator experiments by giving two AI models, GPT-6 Astra and Fable 5.1, $1,000 each to develop trading strategies for the 15-minute Bitcoin up/down market on Kalshi. Both models were tasked with creating strategies using their respective coding environments, with Astra using Codex and Fable using Cloud Code. While Astra’s strategy was relatively simple and lacked advanced features like Kelly sizing, Fable’s approach was more sophisticated, incorporating backtesting, volatility measures, and dynamic bet sizing based on calculated edge.

The creator ran both strategies in a simulated environment for about 18 hours to compare their performance. Astra’s strategy showed high volatility with large position sizes, leading to significant drawdowns despite a higher win rate. In contrast, Fable’s strategy was more conservative with controlled sizing, resulting in steadier performance and ultimately a positive return. Astra ended with a 60% loss, while Fable achieved nearly a 20% gain, making Fable’s strategy the clear winner to move forward with in a live trading experiment.

To run the live experiment, the creator used a VPS from Hostinger, highlighting how easy it was to set up the trading bots 24/7 using Hostinger’s API and Codex integration. The VPS setup included 8GB RAM, two CPU cores, and 100GB storage, providing sufficient resources for continuous bot operation. The video also includes a tutorial on how viewers can sign up for Hostinger, use a coupon code, and deploy their own AI trading bots efficiently.

The live trading experiment with Fable’s strategy started with $100 and has been running for around 48 to 72 hours. The bot showed promising results, achieving a 70% return so far with a maximum drawdown of $17. The creator noted that while the bot’s performance has been good, it is influenced by Bitcoin’s recent upward trend, and emphasized that this project is more about learning how to set up and manage AI trading bots rather than guaranteeing steady profits.

In conclusion, the creator found the experiment valuable and enjoyable, especially the process of testing different AI models and deploying the best strategy live. They expressed interest in repeating the experiment with future AI models like Opus or updated versions of Fable and Astra. The video ends with a thank you to Hostinger for sponsoring and encourages viewers to check out their services for VPS hosting to run their own AI trading bots.
