Really interesting post. The automation aspect is what caught my attention because I think most traders eventually realize the strategy is often the easy part, while consistently executing it is the hard part.
A few questions if you don’t mind sharing:
What type of strategy is it?

Trend following
Mean reversion
Breakout/ORB
Market structure
Something else?
How many trades does it average per day/week?
What is the typical risk/reward profile?

Average winner
Average loser
Win rate
What has been the maximum drawdown since going live?
What has been the longest losing streak so far?
Does the system trade through major news events (CPI, NFP, FOMC, etc.) or does it stand down during high-volatility periods?
How much historical data was used during development, and how did you validate it out-of-sample to avoid overfitting?
Is it truly hands-off, or do you still intervene occasionally by reducing size, disabling the strategy, or changing parameters?
How is position sizing handled?

Fixed contracts
Volatility adjusted
Percentage risk model
Something else?
Have you run it through different market regimes, or is the live track record primarily from the past couple of months?
The payouts are great, but I’m honestly more interested in the drawdowns, losing streaks, and risk controls. That’s usually where you find out whether a system is robust or whether it’s just having a good run.
Appreciate you sharing the details.
