GPU benchmark workload

RTX 5090 vs RTX 4090 on Pine Script CUDA backtests

Use Strategy Arena Lab to compare RTX 5090, RTX 4090 and other NVIDIA GPUs on supported Pine/ArenaScript CPU vs CUDA strategy sweeps.

For hardware and quant users who want a real trading workload to benchmark local GPUs instead of generic gaming or token/sec tests.

CPU reference remains the correctness baseline
CUDA sweep timing creates a shareable Lab Report
GPU identity, adapters and backend status are visible before leaderboard submission
TradingView review happens only after a strategy has proof

What it does

Strategy Arena Lab generates native ArenaScript candidates, runs Operator composite sweeps across 70 native families, can import supported Pine Script into the same plan format, then runs deterministic local backtests before any public validation workflow.

Why it matters

Trading strategies need repeatable local checks, visible trade logs and benchmarkable parameter sweeps before they become marketing claims.

Beta scope

  • SMA, EMA, RSI, MACD and EMA + RSI subsets
  • Long and short CPU reference paths
  • CUDA comparison where supported
  • Native GPU name, source and adapters in benchmark metadata

Pine compatibility without losing the ArenaScript engine

The Lab is not a TradingView extension. It generates and backtests Strategy Arena ArenaScript strategies first. Pine is an import bridge for deterministic subsets; CPU reference is the truth source, then CUDA runs only when a script maps to current kernels.

Is this a real benchmark?

The page defines the workload and points users to Strategy Arena Lab, where CPU/CUDA results can be generated locally and exported as Lab Reports.

Why compare GPUs with trading workloads?

Pine/ArenaScript sweeps stress different paths than games or LLM token generation: indicator kernels, parameter variants, CPU baseline checks and report export.
