Paladin

Desktop market analytics and signal generation for institutional-style workflows

Paladin is a proprietary trading intelligence application by Red Rook, LLC. It provides a PyQt5 workstation for charting, multi-timeframe market data, and machine-learning-assisted directional signals: a calibrated LightGBM ensemble, optional ONNX transformer inference, and engineered technical features over Yahoo Finance data via yfinance.

File	Type	Role	Tech/Stats
main.py		PyQt5 shell: onboarding, charting, signal engine integration.
brains.py		ML brain, ONNX/LightGBM, features, persistence
humanize.py		GPT4All-compatible conversational layer
translator.py		GUI translation hooks
setup.py		Dependency checks, training bootstrap, diagnostics
data4.json		Brain metadata for setup/training
requirements.txt		Python dependencies

File	Type	Role	Tech/Stats
general_info.py		SYSTEM_PROMPT_JSON for export and conversational pipelines
convert_h5_onnx.py		Load paladin.h5, emit paladin.onnx, refresh context
paladin_context.json		Alternate / legacy context export
paladin_contextv2.json		Current v2 context export
paladin.h5		Keras weights for export pipeline
paladin.onnx		Runtime ONNX graph for brains.py

File	Type	Role	Tech/Stats
brain_model.pkl		Default LightGBM stack from brains.py training
paladin_brain.pkl		Fallback brain if default is missing
scaler.pkl		Fitted RobustScaler

• Python 3.11 (see requirements.txt comments).
• RAM: 16 GB recommended for interactive ML workloads.
• OS: Windows, macOS, or Linux.

pip install -r requirements.txt

Some installs need a system TA-Lib library before the Python wheel; see upstream TA-Lib docs for your platform.

	Step	Command
	Launch desktop app	python main.py
	Setup / train / diagnostics	python setup.py
	Export ONNX + context (requires DATABASE/paladin.h5)	python onnx_and_orca.py --export
	Same export via database script	python DATABASE/convert_h5_onnx.py

	Variable	Meaning
	PALADIN_ORCA_PATH	Absolute path to a GPT4All-compatible GGUF for humanize.py (overrides default cache).

Baseline market data uses yfinance; no API key is required for standard Yahoo Finance access.
