🚀 The Architecture: "The Brain & The Guardian" Most autonomous trading agents make a critical mistake: they let the LLM directly execute trades and manage capital. During our development, we realized that giving an LLM direct access to liquidity via free-form tool-calling is a recipe for disaster (hallucinations, latency issues, and misunderstood API schemas). Our architecture elegantly separates concerns: The Brain (predictive_brain.py & lobo_scout.py): Scans the market continuously. Feeds live news and technical indicators (RSI, MACD) to the LLM. The LLM's only job is to classify the opportunity and assign a Brain Score (0 to 100). It never touches the money. If the score crosses the threshold (e.g., >65 for Calls, <35 for Puts), a signal is generated. The Guardian (ochoa_core.py): A deterministic, hardcoded Python risk manager. Intercepts the LLM's signals. Checks available portfolio limits, applies Take Profit (e.g., 30%) and Stop Loss limits. Handles the execution securely via Alpaca CLI integration. 🛠️ Key Features & "Build in Public" Milestones Building OCHOA live during the hackathon led to several "Open-Heart Surgeries" on the code, resulting in these advanced features: 1. Alpaca CLI Native Integration 2. The "Zombie Options" Bypass 3. Overdrive (Kamikaze) Mode 4. Dynamic Radar Multi-Bot System
