Customizing a MetaTrader AI Assistant with Prompt Files

Article MQL5 code base
Read the original

Summary

This guide describes a MetaTrader 5 script that creates a prompt file for customizing an AI assistant’s response language, persona, and numbered menu. Users can generate the file, apply it in the assistant, and edit the instructions, menu labels, and actions to fit workflows such as chart review, trade-history review, or risk-management checks. The guide also describes settings for the output filename and whether an existing file can be overwritten.

The example is a prompt customization workflow, not a trading system or a test of AI analysis quality. The prompt file changes the instructions presented to the assistant; it does not itself add market data or guarantee that the assistant can perform each menu action. The article emphasizes that prompts can grant broad permissions and says its sample restricts order placement, position changes, and other trading operations. Custom prompts should define carefully what the assistant may access and do, since the document offers no evidence about the reliability of AI-generated analysis.

Key ideas

  • A MetaTrader 5 script can generate a prompt file to configure an assistant’s language, style, and menu.
  • Users can edit the generated instructions and menu actions to fit their trading workflow.
  • Prompt customization changes the assistant’s instructions but does not establish its analytical accuracy or capabilities.
  • The sample restricts trading operations, and the guide advises setting clear limits on permissions and actions.
