The problem wasn't making a prompt.  I had a fairly neutral prompt,
that I don't think better prompting would substantially improve the
results of.

The problem was the degree of accuracy.  Actually running the
experiment did not yield accurate enough forecasts to reliably make
substantial amounts of money, for the specific opportunities I was
looking at.
