Team Responsibilities

Trading Workflow

1. Input: python main.py --symbol AAPL

2. Teams debate internally via AutoGen GroupChat
   → Each team reaches internal consensus

3. Team leaders report to Head Coach
   → Cross-team synthesis

4. Risk Management review
   → Can VETO any trade (overrides Head Coach)

5. Devil's Advocate challenges recommendation
   → Forces bull/bear stress test

6. Head Coach final decision

7. Human approval gate (configurable)

8. Execution team submits order to Alpaca

python main.py --symbol NVDA --test

# Output: consensus decision + rationale + risk assessment + order

Key Design Patterns

AutoGen GroupChat per Team

# Each team runs internal debate
groupchat = autogen.GroupChat(
    agents=[tech_agent_1, tech_agent_2, ..., tech_agent_7],
    messages=[],
    max_round=5
)
manager = autogen.GroupChatManager(groupchat=groupchat, llm_config=llm_config)

Risk Veto Pattern

class RiskManager(autogen.AssistantAgent):
    def check_veto(self, proposal: dict) -> bool:
        if proposal["position_size"] > self.max_risk:
            return True   # VETO
        if proposal["volatility"] > self.vol_threshold:
            return True   # VETO
        return False      # Approved

ChromaDB RAG Knowledge Base

import chromadb
client = chromadb.Client()
collection = client.get_or_create_collection("trading_knowledge")

# Query before analysis
results = collection.query(
    query_texts=["AAPL earnings history semiconductor cycle"],
    n_results=5
)
