SAiFE-gym: Model-based Environments for Automated Market Making with Concentrated Liquidity

SAiFE-gym is a Python module that offers simulation environments for studying trading in Constant Product Markets with Concentrated Liquidity. It decomposes the microstructure of these markets into interactive components, allowing researchers to model various economic settings. The environments are vectorized for scalability in high‑dimensional reinforcement learning workflows, and the paper demonstrates their usefulness by evaluating RL agents under uncertain market parameters.

Can Reinforcement Learning Efficiently Discover Price Manipulation?

arXiv:2607. 06121v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we investigate whether a model-free RL agent can identify and exploit price manipulation opportunities more effectively than a traditional model-based approach that assumes correct specification of the data-generating process but relies on noisy parameter estimates.

OpenFinGym: A Verifiable Multi-Task Gym Environment for Evaluating Quant Agents

arXiv:2606. 26350v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Although large language model agents are increasingly applied to quantitative-finance workflows, their evaluation remains fragmented across isolated tasks, while the financial relevance of benchmark tasks is often overlooked.

Reinforcement Learning for Execution under Dynamic Fees in a Closed-Loop DEX Simulator

arXiv:2607. 10960v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Trader-facing dynamic fees are increasingly proposed for automated market makers (AMMs), but historical data do not identify how order flow would respond: trader-facing fees do not vary, trader types are latent, and a replayed tape is not a sequential decision environment.

Are LLMs Good Financial User Simulators? A Preliminary Study

Large language models (LLMs) are being tested as simulators of individual financial decision-making. In a controlled paper‑trading experiment with 120 volunteers, the study evaluated whether an LLM could predict a participant’s next‑day trading action, chosen security, and transaction size using only pre‑cutoff information. Results showed that including market context improved predictions of actions and tickers, but sizing remained challenging, and the models tended to over‑predict hold actions, under‑predict sells, and simplify multi‑security trades.
