Expensive Opus tokens are spent only where adversarial review and final decisions are made.
Deep adversarial reasoning and final approval. The two most important decisions in the pipeline: challenging the trade (Deep Thinking) and signing the order (Manager Agent).
All analysis, synthesis, planning, and control work. The muscle of the pipeline — carries 91% of tokens at 60% of Opus's unit price. Handles data integration, market analysis, research, fact-checking, trading plans, backtesting, position sizing, risk management, and monitoring.
Pure technical ingest and deterministic execution. Data Sources (WebSocket/REST feeds) and the Execution Agent (order placement) never call an LLM and consume zero tokens. A hard design rule: AI thinks, code executes.
One full-market run: ~6.94M tokens, $28.48
6,327,000 tokens per run. $24.11 per run. Handles the entire analysis pipeline from data integration through risk management and monitoring.
615,000 tokens per run. $4.38 per run. Owns the two most critical decisions: adversarial challenge and final signed approval.
Maximizing intelligence per dollar spent
Sonnet carries 91% of tokens at 60% of Opus's unit price. Opus is reserved exclusively for the two hardest jobs: adversarial review and final approval.
93% of runs (NO SIGNAL) stop after the Researcher — $18.90 instead of $28.48, saving ~34% per run. The system actively says NO to conserve resources.
Deep Thinking runs only 9 of 1,440 daily runs. All of Opus costs ~$43/day (0.2% of budget). NO SIGNAL and NO TRADE runs never reach it.
Backtest, position sizing, and execution run on numerical engines — the LLM only reads summarized results. Zero tokens for heavy computation.
Rejecting junk evidence at step 5 reduces input for every downstream agent. Every rejected item saves tokens at every subsequent step of the pipeline.
System prompts and schemas are fixed across runs — 50–70% of input tokens are cacheable, pushing real cost well below the nominal budget.
