Most people online only post winning trades, but following a live system in real market conditions is completely different psychologically.

Some weeks perform well.
Some are slower.
Sometimes the system takes trades I personally wouldn’t take myself — and that’s where emotions usually start kicking in.

What surprised me most is how hard consistency actually is when real money is involved. The strategy matters, but discipline and sticking to the process matter even more.

Been getting some questions about the copy trading setup lately.

If anyone’s curious how everything is structured, DM me and I’ll show you around.

I started tracking a rules-based strategy publicly because most bot content online only shows perfect entries and green days.
Reality so far:
historical drawdown: ~15%
some weeks completely flat
performance changes a lot depending on market conditions
emotionally harder to follow than expected
Still interesting to watch how a fully systematic approach behaves live compared to backtests.
Curious how many people here would actually tolerate a -10% to -15% drawdown before quitting.
