Prerequisites
- TradingView account (free or paid)
- A symbol to analyze (e.g., BTCUSD, EURUSD, AAPL)
- Access to Comet (Perplexity) AI in your browser
Step 1: Open and Prepare Your TradingView Chart
- Log in to TradingView and open the Full-featured chart for your symbol.
- Select a timeframe aligned to your style (e.g., 15m day trading, 1H swing, 1D position).
- Use Candlestick chart type.
- (Optional) Add indicators: MA 50/200, RSI 14, Volume.
- Clean the view (hide old drawings, use log scale if large ranges).
Step 2: Capture Context for Comet AI
To help Comet reason about your chart, provide clear context. You have two quick options:
- Describe the chart: Symbol, timeframe, indicators, what you’re seeing (trend, ranges, recent highs/lows).
- Share a screenshot in your Comet chat so the AI can visually reference structure, levels, and indicators.
The more precise your inputs, the better Comet’s setup will match your rules.
Step 3: Prompt Comet (Perplexity) AI to Generate a Setup
Paste one of these battle-tested prompts into Comet. Adjust the bracketed parts.
Core Setup Prompt
Symbol: [SYMBOL], Timeframe: [TF: 15m/1H/4H/1D]. Indicators: [list].
1) Identify trend, key support/resistance, and recent structure (HH/HL or LH/LL).
2) Propose 1–2 trade setups (with-trend preferred) including Entry, Stop, Targets, and R:R (>= 1:2).
3) Provide a short rationale and note invalidation conditions.
4) Format clearly: Setup Type, Entry, Stop, Target(s), R:R, Rationale, Invalidation.
Style Constraints
Constraints: Avoid countertrend entries if price is below the 200MA (for longs) or above it (for shorts).
Prefer entries at retests of broken structure or supply/demand with confluence (MA, RSI, volume).
Two-Scenario Prompt
Provide both: (A) Breakout continuation setup and (B) Mean-reversion pullback setup.
Include: precise price levels, invalidation, and risk management notes.
Step 4: Validate and Draw the Setup in TradingView
- Trend alignment: Is the setup with the dominant trend?
- Liquidity/structure: Levels near prior highs/lows, supply/demand, imbalance.
- Confluence: MA slope, RSI regime/divergence, volume spikes.
- Risk-to-Reward: Aim for ≥ 1:2.
- Use the Long/Short Position tool to mark Entry, Stop, and Target(s).
- Right-click the drawing → Settings → add a clear label, e.g., “Comet AI Setup — Long BTCUSD 1H”.
Step 5: Set Entry, Stop, and Target Alerts
Create three alerts so you’re notified at key moments.
- Entry alert: Right-click near the entry price → Add alert → Condition: Symbol crossing [entry price] → Name “Entry Trigger — [Symbol TF]”.
- Stop-loss alert: Add alert at the SL level → message “Stop hit — invalidate setup.”
- Take-profit alert: Add alert at TP (and TP1/TP2 if partials) → message “Target hit — consider partials/move SL to BE.”
For stricter confirmation, set alerts to “Once per bar close.” You can also use indicator-based alerts (e.g., RSI cross 50, price cross 200MA).
Step 6: Save Layout and Journal the Trade
- Save your chart layout after placing drawings and alerts.
- Take a screenshot (camera icon) for your journal.
- Log: date, symbol, TF, screenshots (before/after), rationale, execution, result, lessons.
Advanced Comet Prompts
- “Refine entry using liquidity sweeps and fair value gaps; minimize drawdown and keep R:R ≥ 1:2.”
- “Multi-timeframe check: If 1H conflicts with 4H, propose confirmation rules before entry.”
- “Suggest partial take-profit strategy (TP1 at prior high/low), then trail stop using structure or MA.”
- “Parameterize a webhook alert JSON with entry, SL, TP for automation.”
Alert Message Templates
Entry: Comet AI Setup [SYMBOL TF] — Entry [price] | SL [price] | TP [price] | R:R [x:1]
Stop: Comet AI Setup — Stop hit at [price]. Invalidate and reassess structure.
Target: Comet AI Setup — TP reached at [price]. Take partials, move SL to BE.
FAQ
Q: Do I need a paid plan?
A: You can do this with free tiers, though advanced alerts/webhooks may require paid plans.
Q: Can Comet directly place orders in TradingView?
A: No. Comet helps with analysis and planning. Execution and alerts are set in TradingView. For automation, use TradingView webhooks to send JSON to a bot or broker integration.
Q: What if Comet’s levels differ from mine?
A: Treat AI output as a draft. Validate against your rules, structure, and risk limits before acting.
