【Thorough EA Operation Mindset】
We’ve mastered how to choose an EA,
and mastered EA-specific risk management as well,
but there are times when you still can’t win.
Some win and some lose,
What makes one EA different from another, even if they are the same?
※From here, ChatGPT summarized this section.
【Mental techniques in EA operation】
※ Discretionary trading and EA operation have fundamentally different stances
In discretionary trading, your own judgment and calmness are key, but in EA operation the main roles are logic selection and capital management. The operator should watch over the EA as a "supervisor."
※ The performance is almost determined by “how you choose and manage” the EA
If differences in mental approach affect results, it’s because the premises are different. Knowledge and numerics-based selecting and managing ability create differences in performance.
※ You need to be willing to trust the “black box”
The EA’s logic is designed in a way that no one can understand, but based on that assumption you are expected to “believe and use” as an EA operator.
※ Emotions (handling, etc.) cause more harm than good
EA is designed to trade automatically according to rules. Injecting human discretion or emotions lowers performance and negatively affects mental state.
※ Don’t get elated or discouraged by short-term results
Instead of being swung by unexplained good or bad phases, as the operator, understand “why it happened” and continue the strategy with a long-term perspective.
※ Don’t be misled by daily or monthly profit fantasies
EA that makes steady daily or monthly profits is not the right approach. The market changes constantly, assess long-term stability.
※ To continue winning in EA operation, on top of choosing and capital management,
the “mental” to trust and keep using the EA is indispensable.

Usually the backtest period is longer than the forward period, and
whether you just happened to win in forward testing can be inferred by mastering backtest evaluation methods.
【How to manage EA risk!?】

if you neglect risk management, FX will collapse.
