You seem to be debating a point which was never made by holding on to one word - simple. I didn't say trading code is simple neither I did say that your trading code setup is simple. Still let me clarify - the trading logic as you say

LLMs are very good at NLP/classification tasks and weak at calculations and numbers. So, I doubt feeding it numerical data is a good idea. And if you feeding or harnessing as the blog post puts it in a way that where it reasons things
