🎭 What is a Companion?
A companion is your AI's trading personality and focus. When you choose a companion, you're telling the AI:
What kind of trader you are
What timeframes you care about
What type of analysis you need
How aggressive or conservative you want to be
Your companion changes:
How the AI talks to you
What prompts it suggests
What trade setups it shows you
The analysis style it uses

🎯 How Companions Change Your Experience
Example Question: "Is Tesla a good buy?"
Money Monty Response:
"TSLA looks solid from both angles. Technical A+, fundamental B+. Entry $465-470. Target $490 in 10 days. Volume strong. Consider 2-3% position size. Risk/reward: 2.5:1."
Sage Response:
"TSLA Fundamental Grade: B-. Company is growing fast (50%+ revenue growth) but valuation is stretched. P/E of 75 vs industry avg of 15. Long-term story is strong (EV leader, AI potential) but current price reflects a lot of optimism. For long-term buy & hold: Wait for pullback to $400-420 for better entry or DCA gradually."
Maverick Response:
"TSLA momentum is 🔥! Technical A+, crushing relative strength. Breaking out with MASSIVE volume. Catalyst: AI hype. Entry $465-470 NOW. Target $495 in 2 weeks. Ride this wave! Stop $455. 🚀"
Blitz Response:
"TSLA Technical Grade: A+. Strong momentum, currently at $465. Key resistance at $470 (break = target $478). Support at $460 (break = bail). High volume confirms move. Consider $470 calls exp this week. Risk/reward: 3:1. In and out by 2pm."
