Rags to Riches
Q: So you feel like the robot basically helps you manage the
trade better?
A: Absolutely.
Q: Do you have any sort of alert system that you’ve created to
tell you when a trade has been placed?
A: Yes, I do. Whenever the robot enters a trade, my alert would
beep and that is when I would know that the robot has entered a
trade.
Q: Do you think that having a trading robot has made your
trading a lot more relaxed in a sense?
A: Yes it has because a lot of the time, I may not even be aware that
the robot has opened a trade. I will come and check the platform
and find that the robot has entered and closed one or more trades
in most cases successful ones. As you can see, with the robot, I
actually have enough confidence to trade more. I am still going for
the 10-pip profit, but the trades are managed better so that I can
build the profit if need be.
Q: Does the same go for losses then, in the sense of letting the
robot trade more if you have a loss for the day?
A: No. If I’ve taken a loss then that’s it for the day. I don’t let him
trade again. I’ll turn the robot back on the next day.
Q: So pretty much you stick to your original plan?
A: Yes to my original manual trading plan because the discipline
to walk away with profits is the most important. The robot just
makes it such that I don’t need to be in front of my PC anymore to
wait for signals. He is picking up signals as they happen and he’s
entering the trade.
