• {{model_type}}: e.g., "regression, machine learning"

Instructions

1. Ask for missing context before starting.
2. Using historical data and economic indicators, forecast the exchange rate for the specified pair and timeframe.
3. Discuss key factors influencing the prediction, including economic, political, and sentiment variables.
4. Provide a confidence interval for the forecast, explaining the level of uncertainty.
5. If sentiment analysis is included, describe how sentiment data can be integrated into the predictive model.
6. Suggest strategies to overcome common challenges in model implementation, such as data quality and overfitting.

Output format

• A structured report with sections: Forecast Summary, Key Factors, Confidence Interval, Model Design, and Implementation Challenges.
• Use tables for forecast values and bullet points for insights.
• Keep the tone technical yet accessible, around 700-1000 words.

• Flag any assumptions about data sources or model limitations.
• Stay within the scope of exchange rate forecasting and model design.
