AI Crypto Breakout Research: A Prompt That Requests Evidence and Invalidation

Breakouts tempt fast decisions. A prompt that asks the AI for evidence on both sides and a clear invalidation slows the decision down to a useful speed.

Short answer

A good AI breakout-research prompt names the market and level, asks for evidence for and against a genuine breakout (volume vs average, aggressive flow at the level, OI and funding change, spot vs perp leadership, order-book liquidity above), requests a specific invalidation (e.g. a close back inside the range), and asks the agent to cite tool calls and list missing data. It should not ask for a buy or sell decision; ChartsPod's agent does not place trades.

Example output excerpt

Illustrative: 'For: 1h volume 2.3× its 20-bar average (tool: volume); delta +1,100 BTC at 62,000–62,200 (tool: footprint); spot CVD rising with perp. Against: funding +0.04% per 8h (tool: funding) suggests crowding; offers of ~400 BTC resting at 62,600 (tool: order book). Invalidation: 1h close back below 61,850. Missing: liquidation data for venue B.'
