A closed-loop trading benchmark with a five-axis capability scorecard shows that LLM agents' returns rank poorly against diagnostic measures of their reasoning, with the nominal Sharpe winner exposed as a reliability artifact.
FinCAD mitigates parametric look-ahead bias in LLM financial backtesting via learned adversarial prompts and per-entity-date adaptive CAD penalties, cutting memorised-date returns up to 67% while preserving out-of-sample results and raising in/out-of-sample Spearman correlation from 0.779 to 0.846.
SysTradeBench evaluates 17 LLMs on 12 trading strategies, finding over 91.7% code validity but rapid convergence in iterative fixes and a continued need for human oversight on critical strategies.
InKH architecture absorbs complexity into financial LLM agents, cutting latency 83%, token cost 82%, and stale knowledge 97% while raising task quality 0.108 on a 46k-episode synthetic benchmark versus baselines.
Reported alpha from end-to-end LLM trading agents does not constitute deployment evidence until it passes structural tests for temporal integrity, frictions, robustness, calibration, execution, and disaggregation.
A recursive four-agent trading system cut max drawdown to 9.62% versus ~15% for MVO and FinBERT across five geopolitical stress events, while earning near-zero returns in a 2023–2025 bull market.
Reproducibility audit of 30 LLM trading papers shows execution assumptions under-reported relative to agent architectures, illustrated by a 10-equity example where frictions compress returns.
