- 📊 **Data Analysis** Automatically analyzes market patterns and microstructure
- 💡 **Strategy Discovery** Proposes novel trading factors and signals
- 🧠 **Model Evolution** Iteratively improves predictive models
- 📈 **Backtesting** Validates strategies on historical 1-minute data
- 📊 **Factor Generation** — LLM proposes novel alpha factors; Kronos foundation model generates OHLCV-based predictions
- 💡 **Strategy Discovery** — Autopilot generates + backtests trading strategies 24/7
- 🧠 **Model Evolution** — CoSTEER iteratively improves predictive models through code evolution
- 📈 **Backtesting** — Unified engine with 10 runtime invariants on 1-min EUR/USD data (20202026)
- 🔄 **Auto-Restart** — All services run as daemons with automatic crash recovery
Predix is optimized for **1-minute EUR/USD FX data** (20202026) and uses Qlib as the underlying backtesting engine.
Predix is optimized for **1-minute EUR/USD FX data** (20202026) and supports both local LLMs (llama.cpp) and cloud backends (OpenRouter).
> **Backtest Verification**: Every backtest result is automatically verified at runtime against mathematical invariants (MaxDD ∈ [-1,0], WinRate ∈ [0,1], Sharpe finite, sign consistency, etc.). 479 unit tests + 10 ground-truth validation tests ensure ~99% metric correctness. See [Backtest Integrity](#backtest-integrity).

> - `--ctx-size 240000 --parallel 2` — allocates **2 slots × 120,000 tokens each**. `fin_quant` prompts can reach 80k+ tokens with full factor history; a smaller slot causes silent overflow and empty responses.

### 🤖 Kronos Foundation Model Integration
Predix integrates [Kronos-mini](https://github.com/shiyu-coder/Kronos) — a 4.1M parameter OHLCV foundation model pretrained on 12+ billion K-lines from 45 global exchanges (AAAI 2026, MIT):
Predix integrates Kronos — an OHLCV foundation model from the NeoQuasar team (AAAI 2026, **MIT License**) — for alpha factor generation:
- **Option A — Alpha Factor**: Rolling daily inference generates a `KronosPredReturn` factor. Every 96 bars (one trading day), Kronos predicts the next day's return from the previous 512 bars of EUR/USD OHLCV data. The factor is forward-filled to 1-min frequency and plugs directly into Predix's factor evaluation pipeline.
| Model | Params | p24 IC | Best For |
|-------|--------|--------|----------|
| **Kronos-small** (default) | 25M | \|IC\| ≈ 0.09 | 1-min EUR/USD |
| Kronos-mini | 4.1M | \|IC\| ≈ 0.07 | Low-resource |
| Kronos-base | 102M | \|IC\| ≈ 0.002 | Daily/weekly data only |
- **Option B — Model Evaluation**: Kronos runs alongside LightGBM as a standalone predictor. IC (Information Coefficient), IC IR, and directional hit rate are computed over the full dataset for direct comparison with LightGBM-generated models.
Kronos generates 3 prediction-horizon factors automatically on `fin_quant` startup:
- `KronosPredReturn_p24` — 24-minute horizon
- `KronosPredReturn_p48` — 48-minute horizon
- `KronosPredReturn_p96` — 96-minute horizon (best performer)
The model runs on GPU (CUDA) alongside the llama-server, using CPU as fallback.
Factors are persisted in `results/factors/` for use by the strategy orchestrator.
```bash
# One-time setup
git clone https://github.com/shiyu-coder/Kronos ~/Kronos
# Kronos runs automatically with fin_quant (no separate command needed)
rdagent fin_quant --loop-n 10 --model local
# Generate factor (Option A) — saves to results/factors/
python predix.py kronos-factor
# Evaluate as model (Option B) — prints IC vs LightGBM reference
python predix.py kronos-eval
# Model size is auto-detected and configurable via env
# Set KRONOS_MODEL_SIZE=base to use the 102M-param model
```
### 🔒 Security & Quality
