**Workflow Steps:**
🚀 **Start the Workflow**:
– Build a new workflow in n8n and name it aptly, like "Real-Time Stock Market Analysis".
⏰ **Set up Real-time Analysis Trigger**:
– Apply the “Cron” node to schedule the workflow to run regularly, for instance, every minute during trading hours.
📊 **Collect Stock Data**:
– Use an “HTTP Request” node to send API queries to a financial data provider like Alpha Vantage or IEX Cloud. Adjust the API request to fetch the latest market data. Input your API key and specify the stock symbols to follow.
📝 **Prepare Data for LLM Analysis**:
– Bring in a “Set” node to organize the gathered stock data in a format that an AI language model (LLM) can understand.
🧠 **LLM Analysis of Stock Data**:
– Incorporate an “Execute Command” node to convey your structured data to OpenAI's GPT-3 API, asking for market trends or unusual activity. Request for structured replies.
🔍 **Handle AI Analysis Output**:
– Insert a “Switch” node to appraise the LLM output based on precise keywords or insights like "uptrend," "downtrend," or "volatility."
🚨 **Alerts for Key Insights**:
– Should important insights be found, use a “Send Email” node or other alert nodes (like Twilio for text messages) to notify the user about these real-time insights.
📊 **Preserve Analysis Output**:
– Connect a “Google Sheets” node or a “Database” node (like Postgres or MySQL) to store the timestamp, stock symbols, raw data, and AI analysis outcome for subsequent review and analysis.
🌲 **Deploy Pinecone for Similarity Search (Optional)**:
– For advanced analysis or finding correlations, include a node to send a request to Pinecone's vector database to correlate current stock trends with old patterns. This step is useful for determining if the current market situation is comparable to past events.
📈 **Track Workflow Performance**:
– Integrate a “Webhook” node as a health check that updates a monitoring service like Datadog or Uptime Robot about the workflow's operational health.
⚠️ **Error Handling and Logging**:
– Insert an “Error Trigger” node to capture any workflow errors. Apply a “Function” node to organize the error, followed by a logging node to note the incident in a logging service like LogDNA.
🔧 **Schedule Maintenance Period**:
– Use a second “Cron” node to plan routine maintenance tasks like cleaning logs, optimizing the database, or updating the list of stock symbols.
