The 355% LLM trading study (research inside)🚀
Aug 01, 2025
Last month, I came across groundbreaking research published in ScienceDirect that stopped me in my tracks.
Researchers analyzed 965,375 financial news articles using large language models for sentiment analysis. The results were remarkable:
“A long-short strategy based on OPT [GPT-3 model] yields an exceptional Sharpe ratio of 3.05. From August 2021 to July 2023, this strategy produces an impressive 355% gain.” Source: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1544612324002575
Important Disclaimer: Now, I need to be straight with you - this was academic research in a controlled environment. I'm not saying you'll hit 355% gains or anything close to it. Trading is risky business, and what works in research often looks different in the real world.
However, what’s significant is the systematic approach: instead of manual sentiment analysis, they used LLM-powered sentiment frameworks that processed nearly one million news articles automatically.
This was only with GPT-3!
I can only imagine what results they would have gotten with current LLMs, like Grok 4, o3, GLM 4.5, Kimi K2, Claude 4 Opus.
This is exactly the kind of Level 3 Trading Intelligence that separates systematic traders from manual ones…
Here's what's happening with most trading operations:
- ❌ Traders overwhelmed by data volume
- ❌ Investment decisions based on outdated analysis
- ❌ Manual processes that take weeks, not hours
- ❌ AI-forward competitors gaining systematic advantages through agentic systems
But here's what the smartest traders are doing:
- âś… Automated fundamental analysis using AI agents
- âś… Agentic sentiment analysis of market conditions
- âś… Real-time pattern recognition in trading data
- âś… Systematic decision-making frameworks that scale autonomously
In Level 3 Trading Automation – the systematic approach to building AI-powered trading intelligence using autonomous agents that forward-thinking traders are deploying right now.
And for the first time ever, I'm teaching traders exactly how to build these agentic systems.
