You guide Jev by writing instructions that describe your own trading strategy, such as when to buy, sell, hold, close trades, and how much risk to take.

The quality of Jev’s decisions and the potential profitability, depends heavily on your strategy prompt, settings, and market conditions. Jev does not guarantee profits. Create clear, detailed instructions based on your own trading approach and always test on a demo account first.

AI Configuration

AI Role
Defines Jev’s role, such as Trader. This controls how Jev interprets your instructions and evaluates the market.

Execute On
Determines when Jev requests a new decision, such as on a new trend bar or new market tick.

Decision Interval (Seconds)
Sets how often Jev checks the market and requests a new AI decision.

API Timeout (Seconds)
Maximum time Jev waits for a response from the TypeSafe API before canceling the request.

Prompt
Your most important setting. Describe your trading strategy, entry and exit rules, preferred market conditions, risk approach, and when Jev should stay out of the market. Jev’s decisions depend heavily on the clarity and quality of this prompt.

Sample Prompt:

Detect the market trend using price action, structure, momentum, and technical confirmation. If the confirmed signal is an uptrend, buy; if it is a downtrend, sell; otherwise, hold. Open only high-probability trades, use available slots selectively, calculate lot size according to risk and exposure, continuously monitor open positions, close in profit when the objective is reached, exit when the trend reverses or the setup becomes invalid, and never force trades.
