Key Workflows

Trading System Workflow

Backtesting Engine

The CGS framework includes a powerful backtesting engine that combines traditional strategy testing with advanced AI/ML capabilities. This hybrid approach allows for both mathematical model validation and intelligent pattern analysis to optimize trading strategies.

Core Principles

The backtesting engine embodies the three core principles of the CGS framework:

  1. Unified Quant-AI Approach
    • Mathematical models and AI techniques work together in the same evaluation pipeline
    • Strategies can leverage pure quantitative logic, AI-assisted analytics, or any combination
    • Results from different approaches can be directly compared within the same framework
  2. Intelligent, Data-Aware Testing
    • Automatic detection and segmentation of different market regimes
    • Contextual evaluation of strategy performance based on market conditions
    • Adaptive parameter adjustment during backtesting to optimize for specific market scenarios
  3. Smart Math Over Training
    • Robust mathematical optimization techniques instead of resource-intensive model training
    • Immediate strategy refinement through intelligent parameter exploration
    • Transparent, explainable results without black-box decision processes

Deep Reinforcement Learning

  1. Deep Q-Network (DQN) Implementation
    • Neural network architecture:
      • Input layer: 7-dimensional state space

      • Experience replay buffer (10,000 transitions)
      • Target network for stable learning
      • Batch training (32 samples)
      • Adaptive exploration with epsilon-greedy policy

System Scale and Operation

Trading Cycle Algorithm

Each robo-trader follows a sophisticated 5-step trading cycle:

  1. Initial Operation
    • Search for equilibrium signals while in standby mode
    • Monitor market conditions continuously
    • Process real-time market data
  2. Equilibrium Signal Capture
    • Detect and validate equilibrium signals
    • Maintain standby state while preparing for potential trades
    • Preserve current market state information
  3. Preliminary Signal Betting
    • Place initial positions when uptrend/downtrend signals are confirmed
    • Execute trades based on trigger conditions
    • Monitor signal strength and validity
  4. Post-Analysis and Signal Confirmation
    • Evaluate signal authenticity for true uptrend/downtrend patterns
    • Decision making:
      • If signal confirmed: Maintain current betting position
      • If signal invalid:
        • Execute loss-cutting procedure
        • Process market noise data
        • Recalibrate for next preliminary signal
        • Return to steps 3-4 for new signals
  5. Position Management
    • Hold betting positions until new equilibrium signal emerges
    • Close positions for profit when next equilibrium signal appears
    • Return to step 2 to restart the cycle
