Types of Questions You Can Ask

Category 1: AI Rankings and Explanations

Example Questions:

  • "Why is NVDA ranked #1 today?"

  • "What factors are strongest for TSLA (rank #3)?"

  • "Compare NVDA (#1, score 97) vs AMD (#2, score 95). Which is better?"

What AI Provides:

  • Breakdown of all 10 factors for the stock

  • Comparison of factor scores

  • Identification of strongest and weakest factors

  • Explanation of why score changed

  • Context about what the scores mean for trading

Example Conversation:

You: "Why is NVDA ranked #1 today?"

AI: "NVDA ranks #1 with a score of 97/100 due to exceptional strength across multiple factors:

Strongest factors:

  1. Price Momentum (20% weight): 98/100 - Up 11.2% in 5 days, 15.8% in 10 days (top 2% momentum)

  2. Volume Surge (15% weight): 100/100 - Current volume 8.2M vs 20-day avg 2.8M (2.9x surge)

  3. Technical Alignment (12% weight): 100/100 - All 5 indicators bullish (RSI 62, MACD positive, price above all MAs)

  4. Relative Strength (12% weight): 100/100 - Outperforming SPY by +9.5% over 10 days

Moderate factors: 5. Volatility (10% weight): 88/100 - ATR 5.8% (good for day trading) 6. Momentum Persistence (7% weight): 100/100 - Positive across all timeframes

Weaker factors: 7. Support Proximity (8% weight): 65/100 - Currently 7% above demand zone (not ideal entry)

Overall: NVDA shows exceptional momentum, volume, and technical setup. Main caution: price is extended from support (not at ideal entry yet). Wait for pullback to $145-148 demand zone for better risk/reward."

Category 2: Technical Analysis Questions

Example Questions:

  • "Is TSLA showing a bullish pattern?"

  • "Where is support for AAPL?"

  • "Is AMD overbought on RSI?"

  • "Show me bullish divergence examples"

  • "What's the trend for GOOGL?"

What AI Provides:

  • Technical indicator readings (RSI, MACD, moving averages)

  • Support/resistance level identification

  • Pattern identification (triangles, flags, head-and-shoulders, etc.)

  • Trend classification (uptrend, downtrend, sideways)

  • Divergence detection and explanation

Example Conversation:

You: "Is AMD showing a bullish pattern?"

AI: "Yes, AMD is forming an ascending triangle pattern:

Pattern details:

  • Support: Rising trendline connecting higher lows ($120, $123, $125)

  • Current price: $125 (at support trendline)

  • Pattern completion: 70% through, breakout likely within 1-3 days

Bullish factors:

  • Volume decreasing during consolidation (typical for triangle)

  • Price making higher lows (buying pressure)

  • MACD histogram rising (momentum building)

Breakout target: $128 + pattern height ($8) = $136 target if breakout occurs

Trading plan:

  • Entry: Buy on breakout above $128 with volume >2x average

  • Stop: $122 (below pattern support)

  • Target: $136

  • R:R: 2.7:1"

  • Why the setup is attractive (confluence of factors)

Example Conversation:

You: "Give me 3 best swing trade ideas for this week"

AI: "Based on AI Rankings and technical setups, here are 3 high-conviction swing trades (3-7 day holds):

Trade Idea #1: NVDA (Rank #1, Score 97)

  • Setup: Pullback to demand zone in strong uptrend

  • Entry: $148 (at demand zone $145-148)

  • Target: $162 (next supply zone, 9.5% gain)

  • R:R: 2.8:1

  • Holding period: 3-5 days

  • Why: Perfect AI Score (97), all factors aligned, healthy pullback in uptrend

Trade Idea #2: AMD (Rank #2, Score 95)

  • Setup: Ascending triangle breakout (imminent)

  • Entry: $128.50 (on breakout above $128 with volume)

  • Stop: $122 (below triangle support, 5% risk)

  • Target: $136 (pattern target, 5.8% gain)

  • R:R: 1.2:1 minimum, but likely extends further

  • Holding period: 2-5 days (breakouts can be fast)

  • Why: Strong AI Score (95), pattern completion, volume building

Trade Idea #3: JPM (Rank #10, Score 85)

  • Setup: Bullish divergence at support

  • Entry: $152 (current price)

  • Target: $162 (resistance, 6.6% gain)

  • R:R: 2.5:1

  • Holding period: 5-7 days (financials move slower)

  • Why: Diversification (not tech), bullish divergence, at structural support

Summary: All 3 offer R:R ≥2:1, all have AI Scores ≥85, all have clear technical setups. Suggest trading 1-2 (NVDA strongest, JPM for diversification)."

Category 4: Learning and Education

Example Questions:

  • "Explain bullish divergence"

  • "What is relative strength and why does it matter?"

  • "How do I read Buy Sell Signals V2?"

  • "What's the difference between support and demand zone?"

  • "Teach me about momentum persistence"

What AI Provides:

  • Clear explanations of technical concepts

  • Examples with visual descriptions

  • How to apply concepts to actual trading

  • Links to relevant documentation

Example Conversation:

You: "Explain bullish divergence"

AI: "Bullish divergence is a momentum indicator pattern that signals potential trend reversal from bearish to bullish.

How it works:

  • Price: Makes lower low (new low below previous low)

  • Indicator (RSI, MACD, etc.): Makes higher low (doesn't confirm price low)

  • Meaning: Momentum is strengthening even as price falls → reversal likely

Visual example:

Copy

Price:     /\      /\     ← Lower low           /  \    /  \___/ Indicator: /\      /\     ← Higher low (divergence)           /  \____/  \___

Why it matters:

  • Shows selling pressure weakening

  • Buyers stepping in at lower prices

  • Often precedes trend reversal

How to trade:

  1. Identify divergence (price lower low, indicator higher low)

  2. Wait for price confirmation (bullish candle, break above resistance)

  3. Enter long with stop below recent low

  4. Target previous high or resistance level

Common indicators for divergence:

  • Smart MACD (MACD line vs signal line)

  • RSI (14-period)

  • Stochastic

Related: See Smart MACD for divergence trading strategies"

Category 5: Stock Comparisons

Example Questions:

  • "Should I trade NVDA or AMD today?"

  • "Compare the top 5 AI Rankings stocks"

  • "TSLA vs AAPL - which has better setup?"

  • "Why did GOOGL drop from #3 to #12?"

What AI Provides:

  • Side-by-side factor comparison tables

  • Technical setup comparison with specific levels

  • Risk/reward comparison with calculated ratios

  • Clear recommendation with detailed reasoning

Example Conversation:

You: "Should I trade NVDA or AMD today?"

AI: "Comparison: NVDA (#1, Score 97) vs AMD (#2, Score 95)

AMD (at support)

Technical setup comparison:

  • NVDA: Strong momentum but extended from support (7% above demand zone). Better to wait for pullback.

  • AMD: Ascending triangle at support, imminent breakout. Entry point is better (at support).

Risk/Reward:

  • NVDA: Entry $150, Stop $145, Target $165 = R:R 3:1 (if enters at support)

  • AMD: Entry $128, Stop $122, Target $136 = R:R 1.3:1 (but breakout pattern, often extends)

Recommendation:

  • For swing trading (3-7 days): Trade AMD today (better entry at support, pattern breakout imminent)

  • For NVDA: Wait for pullback to $145-148 demand zone before entering

Alternatively: Trade both (NVDA when it pulls back, AMD now on breakout)"

Best Practices for Effective AI Chat

✅ Do

Be specific: "What's driving $NVDA's momentum today?" (not "Why is NVDA moving?")

  • Specific questions get specific, actionable answers

  • Include context when available

Context-rich prompts: "$TSLA broke $200 resistance with high volume. Is this a good entry?"

  • Provide relevant details

  • AI gives better analysis with more context

Request actionable info: "What's a good stop loss for $AAPL at $180?"

  • Ask for concrete levels and plans

  • Get trade-ready information

Ask follow-up questions: "You mentioned support at $175. How strong is that level?"

  • Dig deeper when needed

  • Build understanding progressively

Use for comparisons: "Compare NVDA and AMD for swing trading"

  • AI excels at side-by-side analysis

  • Get clear recommendations with reasoning

Ask "why": "Why did AMD's score drop?" teaches you what factors matter

  • Learn while you trade

  • Build pattern recognition

❌ Don't

Too vague: "What should I trade?" (no context)

  • Provide trading style, timeframe, preferences

  • Give AI something to work with

Too broad: "Tell me everything about stocks" (unfocused)

  • Ask specific, targeted questions

  • One topic at a time

No symbol: "Is this a good buy?" (which stock?)

  • Always include stock symbol

  • Be explicit about what you're analyzing

Expect certainty: "Will $AAPL go up?" (AI provides analysis, not predictions)

  • Ask for probabilities and analysis

  • Understand markets are uncertain

Skip your own analysis: AI is assistant, not replacement for thinking

  • Verify AI's technical analysis on charts

  • Use your own judgment for final decisions

Trade blindly: Verify everything AI suggests

  • Check charts personally

  • Apply your risk management rules
