Maybe I should start calling you deliverance - LOL
And who amongst us doesn't - it the only reason to trade
==============================
Now..., as to your other point
What is the single biggest risk aspect of / to your trading (we both know it..., I'm not going to diminish by answering)
You limit your manual trading to morning - to mitigate it
You automate - to mitigate it
You're constantly back testing / upgrading - to mitigate it
You constantly struggle with / working - to mitigate it
==========================
I've merely shared how one can all but eliminate it - permanently
=========================
aside:
I think a part of you relishes the mano a mano aspect - but to do that - one must be engaged
I want to win!!!
I hate to lose!!!!
Engaged in / with what exactly - a nameless / faceless / emotionless - entity
I do not..., nor do I find it necessary
===========================
I love Ya man - always have..., always will

LOL , naw I think $qeaky be good nickname, LOL
So you agree you think about making money first and not the process, otherwise all the stress we do each day would be for nada, everyone has stress whether you think so or not when you do it manually oneself, people who tell me they don't, just can't believe that. I don't have stress when it is automated or when others trade for me, just when I trade it, but it not enough to stop me, it is more of excited energy stress, can't wait to start as I expect to prosper.
I trade in the mornings cause I have other businesses to attend, doctor appts, labs, plus after first 90 minutes volume dries up, I need other peoples volume for concise signals to be accurate. I don't have energy I once did few years ago to keep concentrating either. I don't know how any of this has to do with mitigating it.
I automate cause I have backtested over 70 systems that generate profits within reasonable drawdowns and I don't have 70 pairs of eyes, although that would be fun.
I don't have hobbies like most people, everything I do is a hobby if it makes money, how I was raised, so some people do crossword puzzles, to me it is a waste of my time doing that, so I come up with how I might see a different pattern to make money, NOW I have other people to do the back testing.
I struggle with just getting out of bed, LOL, most of life are struggles to do it the right way. Life is total risk and sitting on the couch is risk as well, heart attack by not doing anything.

Other than death, I don't believe that at all, but if you can, much hugs/kisses to you.
"Mano a Mano"? HUH?

Not even...
I don't think about winning , at all cause if I am not losing much, rest takes care of it's own.
"Engaged in / with what exactly - a nameless / faceless / emotionless - entity"
That's trading, you in your man cave and all I want to do is rob, steal and pillage while I am doing it, neighbors often think I have a sheep or something, but that's for later...
I won't say I love ya RN, but I respect you and always entertained by your posts and I know you have helped many on how to trade, that is huge plus for newbies and old farts as well, cause when you have stopped learning, most likely you wearing depends and dribbling from the Jello. I think we could enjoy hours of our trading adventures and early times of tears and frustrations. We both struggle in various ways as being human, but in end, guessing we pretty happy in end result.
RN, You are one of a kind and always look forward to reading your posts.
