This is brilliantly practical advice! The idea of automating the easy 20% first really resonates - I tried going all-in on full automation once and jsut ended up second-guessing everything. Your point about buying back time for testing makes so much sense. I dunno if most traders realize how much energy discretionary trading actually drains untill they step back.
Thanks for the nice comment and I couldn't agree more. It's strange that in every other aspect of life we use technologies so we can do as many different things as we can. We mow the lawn so it goes faster than cutting it by hand, but you bring that to traders and say if you remove the discretion of entry, you can trade more systems and they give you a blank stare.
