Multi-agent trading system with strategy-specific agents and signal aggregation.

What It Is

A proof-of-concept multi-agent trading system. Each agent implements a distinct investment strategy (value, technical, sentiment). A central orchestrator aggregates signals, weights by confidence, and generates trade recommendations.

This is a research project, not a live fund.


The Problem

Trading systems typically:

  • Use single models or fixed rule sets
  • Lack multi-perspective analysis
  • Cannot explain decision rationale
  • Slow to adapt to changing conditions

The Solution

Multiple specialized agents:

  • Each agent analyzes markets using its strategy
  • Signals scored by confidence
  • Central aggregation weights and compares
  • Dashboard shows reasoning and consensus

Agents

AgentStrategy
Value AgentDCF valuation, comparables, margin of safety
Technical AgentTrend detection, pattern recognition, momentum
Sentiment AgentNews NLP, social media analysis
Buffett AgentQuality metrics, moat analysis, long-term value
Ackman AgentActivist thesis, catalyst identification

Each agent operates independently and produces confidence-scored signals.
