SOTA: Stock Options Trading Agents Guided by Option-Implied Return Distributions

We present SOTA (Stock Options Trading Agents), an agentic trading framework for structured option-strategy selection.

Key points

  • As option markets grow and AI advances, agentic systems for option trading are gaining increasing attention.
  • Language-model-based agents can reason over contextual information such as news, but option trading presents a particularly challenging decision problem: a single stock can have thousands of contracts, and the agent must decide both which contracts to trade and how to combine them.
  • SOTA abstracts the large option universe into strategy-level decisions while deterministic resolvers handle portfolio implementation.
  • We develop SOTA by post-training Qwen3.8-27B with supervised fine-tuning followed by reinforcement learning.
