Beyond Agent Architecture: Execution Assumptions and Reproducibility in LLM-Based Trading Systems

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 08285v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) and agentic systems are increasingly proposed for financial trading, yet their reported performance remains difficult to compare because studies vary in data provenance, temporal split discipline, execution timing, turnover treatment, and transaction-cost modeling.

Can Agentic Trading Systems Pay for Their Own Intelligence?

arXiv:2607. 10286v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly used in trading systems, where model reasoning, tool use, and continual decisions incur costs that are expected to produce trading value.

EvolveTrade: Experience-Driven Policy Refinement for Self-Evolving LLM Trading Agents

EvolveTrade is a self‑evolving framework that treats the system prompt of a tool‑using LLM trading agent as a text‑parameterized policy. After each update interval, a Policy Agent revises this policy using accumulated decision traces and portfolio feedback while keeping the backbone LLM fixed, allowing the agent to refine its information‑acquisition and portfolio‑construction procedures over time. Experiments across multiple market regimes and two LLM backbones show that EvolveTrade often improves Sharpe Ratio and Cumulative Return over fixed‑policy baselines, with behavioral analyses indicating increased code‑mediated analysis and regime‑relevant computations.

DSA: Evidence-Aware LLM-Agent Orchestration for Multi-Market Stock Research

The paper introduces DSA, an evidence‑aware orchestration framework that uses large language model agents to conduct multi‑market stock research. DSA structures the workflow into stages of evidence acquisition, context construction, model‑routed analysis, optional role and Strategy Skill reasoning, and report generation, offering both a default and an agentic profile with distinct output validation and risk safeguards. The reference implementation supports six regional markets, fifteen Strategy Skills, and multiple execution surfaces, and has passed 1,457 portable offline backend contract tests, confirming implementation conformance.
