How AI decisions work

When BrokerBridge identifies a trade setup, it sends the AI a structured prompt containing:

• •Price action data (recent OHLCV bars and extracted features)
• •Evidence snapshots from data source plugins (scanner signals, flow data)
• •Current portfolio state (open positions, daily P&L, exposure)
• •Risk parameters (your configured limits)

The AI returns a structured decision: approve or reject, with a confidence score (0-1), reasoning summary, suggested position size, and risk/reward ratio. This decision is recorded in the decisions CSV and presented alongside the original proposal.
