AI Connect links ATAS to an AI agent of your choice: Claude, Codex, Cursor and others. The agent runs on your computer and uses AI Connect to read your charts and journal, set up the platform and run numbers on your data. The model itself stays with the provider you chose.
This course collects ready-made tasks for such an agent: setting up the platform, preparing for a session, reading the market, testing a hypothesis on history, reviewing your journal and building an indicator. You describe the task in plain words, the agent does it on your charts and answers with numbers from your data.
Who it is for
Traders who work in ATAS and want to spend less time on setup and counting by hand. You don't need to program. You don't need experience with AI either: everything you need to know about agents to get started is in the Basics section, starting with An agent from scratch.
What you will be able to do
| Section | What to give the agent |
|---|---|
| Platform setup | Change the look of all charts in one message, ask how to set up a feature and get an answer that takes your chart into account, undo the agent's changes. On crypto, tune Cluster Search settings from the data |
| Session prep | Build a working tab. On crypto, mark the previous day's levels, set alerts and get a plan for the day in the same format every time |
| Market analysis, for crypto | Explain what happened on the chart, find what you may have missed, mark big clusters as levels, read a stretch of the chart through the footprint |
| Testing ideas, for crypto | Count how often price returns to a level, see how a setup did on history after costs, double-check the agent's report |
| Trading journal review | Get totals from the ATAS journal, see where most of your money goes, review each week with the same template |
| Building indicators | Build an indicator from a description, port your indicator from another platform, fix it. You can build an indicator for any instrument; the agent can check it against the data on crypto. For developers: modules, Smart DOM and Watchlist columns, connectors |
How the course is organized
The introduction is short: connecting and getting a first result. The Basics section explains how the agent works with ATAS, what it can access and how to give it tasks. You can read it right away or come back to it when questions come up. After that come the task sections. Read them in any order and pick the task you need right now.
Task sections have two kinds of pages:
- Prompt. A ready-made request for a one-off task. Copy it, swap in your instrument and period, and send it to the agent. Below it you see what the agent did in the example.
- Skill. A ready-made instruction for the agent for repeated work. It is plain text, no program gets installed. Give it to the agent once, then run it by name, and the answer comes back in the same format every time.
How a prompt differs from a skill and how to install a skill is explained in Prompt or skill. The answers and numbers on the pages are examples. On your charts the answer will be different.
How to give the agent a task is covered in Basics, in How to give the agent a task. At the end of the course there is a reference page on what to do if something goes wrong.
