4.1M params | 2K context | $0.00025 per forecast | MIT

Kronos Mini is the smallest checkpoint in the NeoQuasar Kronos family — a tokenizer-based time-series foundation model purpose-built for financial OHLCV candlestick data. It uses a custom tokenizer that discretizes price movements into a vocabulary and a GPT-style decoder to autoregressively predict future candlestick patterns. The Mini variant uses a 2K-token vocabulary and 2048-token context window.

Model Classification

Family

Kronos

Type

time series foundation model

Pretrained time-series model exposed on TSFM.ai for zero-shot or few-shot forecasting workloads.

Training Data

Official Kronos model cards describe pretraining on over 12B K-line records from 45 global exchanges.

Recommended For

  • Financial time-series forecasting with OHLCV candlestick data
  • Multi-asset price prediction across equities, forex, and crypto

Strengths

  • Purpose-built tokenizer for financial price movement patterns
  • Native OHLCV support with synthetic fallback for univariate series

Limitations

  • Domain-specific to financial data — not a general-purpose TSFM
  • Best fit when open, high, low, and close covariates are provided explicitly; the univariate fallback is a compatibility path, not the ideal contract
  • Limited public documentation and benchmark coverage compared to major TSFM families
