How to build an FX Arbitrage Research Agent

Workflow Overview

1. Trigger: Scheduled Execution

• Node: Scheduled Execution (trigger-0)

• Purpose: This node automatically starts the workflow at a specific time (6 AM, America/New_York timezone).

• How it works: No user input is needed; the workflow runs on a schedule.

2. Input: List of URLs

• Node: Input 1 (in-1)

• Purpose: Stores a list of currency/finance-related URLs (e.g., FT, WSJ, FXStreet).

• How it works: This is a static input in your current setup, but it could be user-editable.

3. Web Search

• Node: Web Search (action-1)

• Purpose: Searches the web for information about "Currency Exchange, Foreign Exchange".

• How it works:

  • Triggered by the scheduled execution.

  • Returns search results relevant to currency and foreign exchange.

4. Research Agent (LLM 3)

• Node: OpenAI Agent 3 (llm-3)

• Purpose: Acts as a research agent, analyzing the provided URLs for up-to-date currency and market information.

• How it works:

  • Receives the list of URLs from Input 1.

  • Uses advanced web search tools to research each URL.

  • Produces a summary and a list of citations for downstream use.

5. Synthesis & Email Report (LLM 2)

• Node: OpenAI Agent 2 (llm-2)

• Purpose: Synthesizes all research (web search, URL research, and knowledge base) into a succinct, comprehensive email report.

• How it works:

  • Gathers:

    • Knowledge base search results (using a built-in tool).

    • The summary and citations from OpenAI Agent 3.

    • Web search results from Web Search.

  • Composes an expert-level report on currency arbitrage and market conditions.

  • Automatically sends the report via email using the Gmail integration.

6. Output

• Node: Response (out-0)

• Purpose: Outputs the final result of the workflow (the email report content).

• How it works:

  • Receives the synthesized report from OpenAI Agent 2.

  • Makes the result available for review or further automation.
