Getting good answers

You don't have to word things a special way. Ask like you'd ask a person. A few habits do get you better answers though.

Name the stock

"What's going on with NVDA?" beats "what's up with that chip name". Give it a ticker and it goes straight to the data.

One thing at a time

Ask four things at once and you'll get an answer that skims all four. Ask the main thing first, then follow up — it remembers the conversation, so follow-ups can be short:

"how's NVDA looking?" "any news today?" "when do they report?"

Say what you're after

These all work, and they get you different things:

You wantAsk
Where it stands now"where's NVDA trading, and how's that against its moving averages?"
PPP's record on it"what did PPP's NVDA alert say, and how did it do?"
Why it's moving"why is NVDA up today?"
Something explained"how does PPP think about taking profits?"
The levels that matter"walk me through the levels on SPY"
What's busy in options today"hottest options contract today?"

Why it won't answer "should I buy this?"

Ask that and it'll turn you down — but it won't leave you with nothing. It'll skip the "should you" part and give you the rest: where the stock is, which levels matter, and what would kill the setup.

That's the version of the question worth asking. "Should I buy NVDA?" has no honest answer from something that knows nothing about you, your account, or what you can afford to lose. "What do NVDA's levels look like right now?" does.

Same goes for how much to put in, how many contracts, "what's your best pick", and "what would you do here".

Saved chats
