# Multi-Modal Trading System - Audit Summary
|
||
|
||
**Date**: January 9, 2025
|
||
**Focus**: Data Collection/Provider Backbone
|
||
|
||
## Executive Summary
|
||
|
||
Comprehensive audit of the multi-modal trading system revealed a **strong, well-architected data provider backbone** with robust implementations across multiple layers. The system demonstrates excellent separation of concerns with COBY (standalone multi-exchange aggregation), Core DataProvider (real-time operations), and StandardizedDataProvider (unified model interface).
|
||
|
||

|
||
## Performance Characteristics
|
||
|
||
### Core DataProvider
|
||
- **Cache Size**: 1500 candles × 4 timeframes × 2 symbols = 12,000 candles
|
||
- **Update Frequency**: Every half-candle period (0.5s for 1s, 30s for 1m, etc.)
|
||
- **COB Buffer**: 180,000 raw ticks (30 min @ ~100 ticks/sec)
|
||
- **Thread Safety**: Lock-based synchronization
|
||
- **Memory Footprint**: Estimated 50-100 MB for cached data
|
||
|
||
### EnhancedCOBWebSocket
|
||

|
||
- **Order Book Depth**: 1000 levels (maximum Binance allows)
|
||
|
||
