# MT5 Chart Browser & GPU Image Analysis Skill

## Overview
This skill provides a complete interface for connecting to MetaTrader 5, browsing all available
symbols/pairs, pulling OHLCV data across all timeframes, computing any indicator, capturing chart
images, and performing GPU-accelerated image analysis on chart screenshots for pattern recognition.

## 6. Integration Points

This skill feeds data to other skills in the trading ecosystem:

| Downstream Skill | Data Provided |
|---|---|
| `pair-correlation-engine` | OHLCV data, multi-pair snapshots |
| `trading-data-science` | Raw data for analysis pipelines |
| `event-timeline-linker` | Timestamped price data for event alignment |
| `institutional-behavior-monitor` | Price reaction data around news events |
| `trading-brain` | Structured analysis results for decision-making |

## Usage Conventions

1. **Always call `connect_mt5()` first** — every session starts with connection
2. **Enable symbols before pulling data** — `enable_symbol()` is auto-called in `get_ohlcv()`
3. **Use vectorized indicators** — never loop over bars manually
4. **GPU analysis is optional** — falls back to CPU if no CUDA device
5. **Chart images are base64** — can be piped directly to Claude's vision API for LLM-level analysis
6. **Multi-timeframe is standard** — always check at least 3 timeframes before conclusions

## Mt5 Chart Browser

# MT5 Chart Browser & GPU Image Analysis Skill

## Overview
This skill provides a complete interface for connecting to MetaTrader 5, browsing all available
symbols/pairs, pulling OHLCV data across all timeframes, computing any indicator, capturing chart
images, and performing GPU-accelerated image analysis on chart screenshots for pattern recognition.
