These past couple of days, I've been running stress tests on an automated trading system, and the process has been quite interesting. This morning, I faced an unrealized loss of over $10,000, which was definitely a bit nerve-wracking. However, by the end of the session, it gradually regained ground, ultimately closing with a net profit of over $500. The report card may not look that impressive, but honestly, the primary goal of this system isn't to create miracles. What we want is a stable cash flow, and consistent daily gains are the real key.

What impressed me the most is the resilience of the machine. It maintained high-frequency operations for over 6 hours straight, without emotional fluctuations, fatigue, or human errors—if a human were to do this, they probably wouldn't last long. This is also why more and more traders are starting to rely on automated systems. It's not about getting rich overnight, but about helping you execute strategies, control risks, and stick to discipline—things that are often the easiest for humans to mess up under extreme pressure.
