Reinforcement learning environmentsWe build market-derived RL environments to teach agents applied ML and long-horizon planning under adversarial noise. Static synthetic benchmarks are unrealistic and saturate quickly, whereas markets are non-saturating and self-improving.THESISStatic worlds produce static intelligenceQuant is the hardest, yet solveable data science task.We programmatically generate quant research tasks inside environments built from real market data. Agents use professional tools—and build their own in Bash—to make trading decisions and develop profitable strategies.Markets do not saturate: successful trading makes them more efficient, while edges decay and regimes shift.
That makes our environments a continuously harder benchmark for improving models.HORIZONA decision is not a momentTrading decisions affect more than one future step.Trading successfully means planning ahead multiple steps and assess trade-offs between short and longterm gainsT+00ChooseAct under partial information.The model sees an incomplete state and commits before the full consequences are observable.T+18HCompoundThe decision becomes part of the environment.Exposure, opportunity cost and every action not taken reshape the path that follows.T+53HRevalueThe objective moves.A decision can remain locally correct while becoming globally expensive as conditions drift.T+96HAdaptThe policy that worked has expired.Success belongs to the model that recognizes the new regime before yesterday’s behavior becomes consensus.
