Why writing matters
Trinigence doesn’t require code - but it does require clear thinking. The way you describe your trading idea directly affects how accurately ATI can translate it into:- structured logic
- deterministic rules
- meaningful backtest results
You don’t need special syntax. You need clarity.
The right mental model
A good trading idea implicitly answers five questions:- What market and timeframe am I trading?
- When do I enter a trade?
- When do I exit a trade?
- How much risk am I taking?
- Are there any filters or constraints?
A good first example
Clear and effective:- market and timeframe are explicit
- entry condition is objective
- exits are deterministic
- risk is bounded
What you don’t need to worry about
You do not need to:- specify every parameter perfectly
- worry about internal structure
- use platform-specific syntax
- define defaults explicitly (unless you want to)
- normalize phrasing
- infer standard parameters
- ask clarifying questions only when necessary
Common patterns you can use
Indicator-based entries
Crossover logic
Trend confirmation
Breakouts and momentum
Writing long and short logic
You can define one or both directions. Both directions in one idea:Exits: be explicit
Exits define strategy behavior more than entries. Good exits are:- deterministic
- unambiguous
- always present
- fixed percentage TP / SL
- logic-based exits
- time-based exits
Filters and constraints
You can optionally add constraints such as:- trading only on specific days
- avoiding certain sessions
- limiting trade frequency
- requiring confirmation indicators
What to avoid
Vague language
Bad:Overloading the first version
Bad:Mixing intent and outcome
Bad:How ATI handles ambiguity
When your idea is unclear, ATI will:- ask a clarification question
- propose a reasonable interpretation
- show you what assumption it made
What does a clarification look like?
What does a clarification look like?
ATI may ask whether a “trend change” refers to a specific indicator or timeframe.
Can I override ATI’s assumptions?
Can I override ATI’s assumptions?
Yes. Every inferred detail can be modified or rewritten.
A simple checklist before submitting
Before you submit, ask yourself:- Is the market and timeframe clear?
- Is the entry condition objective?
- Is there a defined exit?
- Is risk limited?
- Would another trader understand this idea?
