What do you guy's do to prevent tilting?

You might benefit by becoming fully system based. That takes the emotion out of it.
If you have a string of losses, you can refer to the system's history - has that occurred in the past? How long did it take to recover? What is the maximum drawdown?

Also, seed each system with a small enough capital so that a string of losses doesn't cause any stress. If you happen to compound the initial seed capital to a huge amount, just continue trading the system without fear as you are only risking trading profits plus a small seed investment.
 
Automate.
It validates the system's rules. You might find it is not as solid as it appears. Which might reveal that those target results are also not valid. A Sisyphus situation.

Why do people do things manually when there are modern easier ways to do it. It is like the Monty Python skit with the monks walking-chanting and hitting themselves with a chunk of wood. Think of those people who refused to use the WWW or Cell Phones. They all have some "reason why" usually it is a disguise for the inability to adapt.

Best of luck

Probably a lot of old timers who've been trading manually for so long the thought of handing over the reins to a machine kinda scares them a bit. I'm almost 67 and recently saw a video on youtube of a guy sound asleep behind the wheel of a Tesla on the freeway and I almost passed out from shock watching that video! LOL.

Unfortunately I lack programming skills, however I was planning and have been looking into programming courses.

The system is 100% mechanical, so automating should be possible.

Automation is a form of discipline. If you don't have "mechanical discipline", you still need it.

If I wouldn't understand the problem I wouldn't be able to recognize it and wouldn't be looking for a solution.

Now please go waste your time on some other thread if you don't have anything useful to say.
