摘要
近期,大型语言模型(LLMs)在金融推理与市场理解方面展现出了显著的能力。诸如TradingAgent和FINMEM等多智能体LLM框架,通过融合基本面与情绪分析输入,增强了这些模型在长期投资任务中的战略决策能力。然而,此类系统难以满足高频交易(HFT)对高速、精准决策的严苛要求。HFT依赖于基于结构化、短期信号的快速且风险意识强的决策,这些信号包括技术指标、图表形态及趋势特征,与传统的金融LLM应用所擅长的长期语义推理截然不同。为此,我们推出了QuantAgent,这是首个专为高频算法交易设计的多智能体LLM框架。该系统将交易分解为四个专业智能体——指标、形态、趋势和风险,每个智能体配备领域专用工具和结构化推理能力,以捕捉短时间窗口内市场的不同动态。在涵盖比特币和纳斯达克期货等十种金融工具的零样本评估中,QuantAgent在4小时交易区间内的预测准确性和累计收益上均表现出色,超越了强大的神经网络和基于规则的基线模型。我们的研究表明,将结构化金融先验知识与语言本机推理相结合,为高频金融市场中可追踪的实时决策系统开辟了新的潜力。

Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive
capabilities in financial reasoning and market understanding. Multi-agent LLM
frameworks such as TradingAgent and FINMEM augment these models to long-horizon
investment tasks, leveraging fundamental and sentiment-based inputs for
strategic decision-making. However, such systems are ill-suited for the
high-speed, precision-critical demands of High-Frequency Trading (HFT). HFT
requires rapid, risk-aware decisions based on structured, short-horizon
signals, including technical indicators, chart patterns, and trend-based
features, distinct from the long-term semantic reasoning typical of traditional
financial LLM applications. To this end, we introduce QuantAgent, the first
multi-agent LLM framework explicitly designed for high-frequency algorithmic
trading. The system decomposes trading into four specialized agents, Indicator,
Pattern, Trend, and Risk, each equipped with domain-specific tools and
structured reasoning capabilities to capture distinct aspects of market
dynamics over short temporal windows. In zero-shot evaluations across ten
financial instruments, including Bitcoin and Nasdaq futures, QuantAgent
demonstrates superior performance in both predictive accuracy and cumulative
return over 4-hour trading intervals, outperforming strong neural and
rule-based baselines. Our findings suggest that combining structured financial
priors with language-native reasoning unlocks new potential for traceable,
real-time decision systems in high-frequency financial markets.
