#黑天鹅 #自动化 Why should we engage in automated trading? Because it's lazy!

Watching the market is truly exhausting; trading happens every moment in the crypto world, and the vast majority of people cannot keep an eye on the market all the time. We still have to live our lives. However, a program can work continuously as long as there is electricity and internet. Programs are lifeless, they have no emotions, they won't get angry due to losses, nor will they feel proud due to profits; they can only mechanically execute your commands. They are ideal assistants!

My automated trading has been a solo endeavor for three to four years, and I can't even remember how many times I've failed or how many strategies I've written.

I used to pursue maximum capital efficiency and the dream of getting rich quickly, achieving relatively large profits each time, which led to arrogance and complacency. Little did I know that it was all fleeting and couldn't last long.

Once, doubling my investment in two days seemed good enough, but how many times could that multiply in a month? After tasting success, I increased my investment, ultimately paying the price for my arrogance. Now, looking back, every profit was somewhat coincidental; perhaps the strategy just happened to align with the market conditions at that time, while I mistakenly thought the program was brilliant.

Now, I finally understand that slow is fast! I don't know how far I can go this time, but at this moment, I just want to ensure that my program runs stably and can withstand black swan events; that's enough!
