What this workflow does

This AI workflow has 15 nodes and runs on a schedule (cron 0 20 * * 3). Along the way it connects Google Sheets, Telegram and OpenRouter Chat Model. It also calls onemotoring.lta.gov.sg over HTTP.

How it runs

Trigger: On a schedule (cron 0 20 * * 3).

  1. Scrape COE Data from OneMotoring (HTTP Request): calls onemotoring.lta.gov.sg
  2. Extract COE Price Data (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
  3. Store in Google Sheets (Google Sheets): append
  4. Retrieve Historical COE Data (Google Sheets): uses Google Sheets
  5. Calculate Technical Indicators (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
  6. Prepare AI Prediction Prompt (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 1 field: predictionPrompt
  7. AI Agent: runs an AI agent, with model: OpenRouter Chat Model
  8. Generate Buy Recommendations (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
  9. Format HTML Report (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
  10. Check for Buy Opportunities (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false

…plus 3 more steps. See the full node list below.

Services it uses

Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

1 thing in this workflow is removed in n8n 3.0. Fix it before you upgrade:

  • AI Agent v1 (old agent modes) in AI Agent - COE Analysis (v1.7): replace with Latest AI Agent node (Tools Agent). For SQL Agent, use a Postgres or MySQL tool with a recent AI Agent.

Rather not rewrite it? Many of these flows can be rebuilt in Make (free plan).

Removed in 3.0Replace with
AI Agent v1 (old agent modes)
AI Agent - COE Analysis (v1.7)
Latest AI Agent node (Tools Agent). For SQL Agent, use a Postgres or MySQL tool with a recent AI Agent.
