AI Crypto Chart Screenshot Analysis: Trace the Conclusion Back to the Tool Results

An AI reading a screenshot has no tool data — only pixels. Its claims should trace to what's visible in the image, or to data it fetched separately.

Short answer

To verify an AI screenshot analysis, check each claim against the image: is the price level readable on the axis, is the indicator visible with its settings, is the timeframe shown? If the AI cites values not visible, ask whether it fetched data (and look at the tool calls). Claims that are neither visible nor fetched are guesses.
