Check out the new article: Neural Networks in Trading: A Multi-Agent System with Conceptual Reinforcement (FinCon).

We invite you to explore the FinCon framework, which is a a Large Language Model (LLM)-based multi-agent system. The framework uses conceptual verbal reinforcement to improve decision making and risk management, enabling effective performance on a variety of financial tasks.

Modern research in artificial intelligence and financial technology focuses on developing adaptive software solutions. Such systems can learn from historical data, identify market patterns, and make more informed decisions. One of the most promising recent directions is the integration of natural language processing (NLP) methods, which enable the analysis of financial news, expert forecasts, and other text-based data to improve prediction accuracy and risk assessment.

The effectiveness of such systems largely depends on two key aspects: interaction among system components and their capacity for continuous self-learning. Studies have shown that systems modeling collaborative teamwork among specialists demonstrate superior performance, and with the adoption of new approaches, these models are becoming increasingly adaptable to changing market conditions.

Existing solutions, such as FinMem and FinAgent, demonstrate significant progress in automating financial operations. However, these systems also have limitations: they tend to focus on short-term market dynamics and often lack comprehensive mechanisms for long-term risk management. Moreover, constraints on computational resources and limited algorithmic flexibility can reduce the quality of their recommendations.

These challenges are addressed in the paper "FinCon: A Synthesized LLM Multi-Agent System with Conceptual Verbal Reinforcement for Enhanced Financial Decision Making". The authors propose FinCon, a multi-agent system specifically designed to integrate stock trading and portfolio management processes.

The FinCon framework simulates the workflow of a professional investment team. Analyst agents gather and analyze data from various sources, including market indicators, news feeds, and historical data, while manager agents synthesize these insights and make final decisions. This approach minimizes redundant communication among participants and optimizes computational resource usage.

The authors designed FinCon to operate both with individual financial assets and diversified portfolios. This makes the system highly versatile.
