I started trading almost 10 years ago, back during Trump's first coming. I've tried a lot since then, but the main thing I've learned about myself is that I don't trust myself to trade by hand. Too many emotions. You understand everything in your head, and then you look at the chart and it starts. Here you want to get in earlier, there you want to sit through it, and after a loss you urgently want to win it back. I think that's a familiar story))

So I make bots. For myself, for my own prop trading. It hasn't been a hobby for a long time. This is how I make a living. I trade with my own money, so I feel every flaw in the system immediately.

I need an advisor I can trust to execute my rules. One that won't change its mind mid-way, won't start revenge trading, and will stop where I decided in advance to stop. In the moment, I can talk myself into things. With a bot, that trick no longer works))

Why do I share and sell my bots? Because I want to share my creation, to show the results of many years of work. I'm a perfectionist — I can spend weeks polishing a single block of code. And then I watch the bot trade and get a kick out of how it all came together and works as one. The strategies sense the market, breathe, live, each in its own way. And they trade without emotion. They're not afraid to enter after a loss, they don't try to win it back, they don't change their decision out of greed. That's exactly what I myself lack in manual trading.

Of course, when you've put that much time into a system, it's easy to fall in love with it. That's why tests come next. Lots of tests. I check on history the strategy never saw during the search, run Monte Carlo, put strategies into portfolios and watch how they work together. Where they lose, what drawdown they give, what happens to risk. A pretty chart isn't enough for me. I have to keep trading with this.

Right now my advisors contain more than 100 selected strategies for gold. The search and testing go on around the clock. That's how KING OF PROP and WEN LAMBO EA came about. I use them myself and keep improving them. Next I'll develop them for other instruments. I have a couple more ideas for new systems.

If you trade with my bots, write to me. What you like, what drives you crazy, what's missing. I'm interested in how they work for you. I know them from my side, but you might notice something I missed.
