AI Crypto Risk Planning: What the Assistant Should Say When Data Is Missing

A risk plan needs account size, stop, costs, margin rules and current price. If any is missing, the assistant should ask or state the assumption.

Short answer

When risk-planning inputs are missing — account size, the stop level, fee tier, margin mode, maintenance tier or a current mark price — a good assistant names each missing input and either asks for it or states a clearly labelled assumption and how the plan changes if it's wrong. It shouldn't produce a precise position size from guessed inputs.

What a good answer says

Examples of the wording to expect when risk planning data is missing:

'You haven't given a stop; I can't size this trade without one.'
'I assumed 0.05% taker fees; if you pay more, reduce size.'
'Liquidation depends on your margin mode — which do you use?'

An answer that skips these is overconfident about risk planning. Original ChartsPod editorial graphic.

Overconfident vs honest

  • Precise size from guessed inputs
  • No fee assumption stated
  • Ignores margin mode
  • Uses stale price

Illustrative: asked to size a trade without a stop, an AI recommended a size. Without a stop, the risk of that size is undefined.
