I recall Jim Simons famously said that the reason why he went algorithmic/automated was because they could not backtest emotions which are involved in manual trading. If something goes wrong, it might be easier to tune your automated system rather than to tune your mental state.
99% of my issues are mental so agreed easier to tweak code. Woke up early, about to start trading DAX, support calls first in months 3 of them back to back and 2hours later I'm too tired and missed some good moves, Automating has it's advantages.
Allocate 20% of your time to create some automation, e.g., signal generation. Good mental health is not a perfectly renewable resource.
Nah, too much like my old life I'm trying to get away from, ie coding for a living. My Mental health went years ago LOL ( Nahhhh 100% Sane, which sucks, easier to be a nutter in this world )
Not going to be totally rude, the important things. Hola adiós ¿Qué hora es, por favor? ¿Cuánto cuesta un final feliz? ¿Cuánto por una hora de lo que quiero?
