FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI execute trades based on these forecasts?

    No. The AI only provides data and analysis. You must execute all trades manually in your own brokerage or trading platform.

    No. The AI reads the most recent data available through the tools, but it cannot change or edit the official Focus Report or BCB data.

  • 03

    Can I use this to predict inflation?

    No. This specific task is limited to interest rate (Selic) data and market expectations for those rates.

  • 04

    The AI pulls the most current Selic metadata available via the get_selic_meta tool.

  • 05

    Will the AI tell me which stocks to buy?
