How to Verify the Connection & Popular AI Trading Prompts
Once connected, you can start leveraging Light Horse in your Grok chats immediately. Click on "New Chat" in the left sidebar. Instead of basic questions, try these highly structured, popular prompts used by AI traders to test both analysis and agentic execution capabilities:
Structured Fundamental Analysis:
- "Analyze EOSE from a fundamental perspective. Break down its revenue growth, profit margins, and competitive position over the last 3 years. Compare these metrics to its top 3 competitors, separate facts from interpretations, and flag any missing data instead of estimating it."
Devil's Advocate Risk Assessment:
- "Play devil's advocate on my current position in EOSE. Give me the 3 strongest bear arguments against the stock even if I am bullish, identify early-warning indicators for these risks, and define a clear stop-loss strategy based on recent support levels."
Agentic Portfolio Rebalancing:
- "Fetch today's target allocation plan for my portfolio. Execute the plan by automatically trimming positions that exceed my 5% risk band, verify that no trades will trigger a Good Faith Violation (GFV), and place limit orders for new targets."
