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).
