Used to be my whole plan was hoarding cash until I hit the magic number so I could flip intraday without tripping the day trade count. Spent most of last y…

Used to have the order book open on a second screen all day. Stared at the ladder, watched size appear and vanish, talked myself in and out of entries base…

When I look up a setting, I get a definition of what it does. What I usually need is when I'd want it and what it trades off against.

Right now the loop is: write something, run it, find out it wasn't what I meant.

Generating a strategy from a description is fine, it's a typing shortcut, and I still have to read what came out and decide whether it's sensible.

What's shown most prominently is total return. What determines whether a strategy is real is closer to trade count, distribution shape, and how concentrate…

Everything I need to evaluate my own fills exists. It takes four steps to get to it and one of them is an export.

Observation rather than a complaint. Most of the design assumes intraday, the defaults, the layout, what's emphasized.

Everything here is free and unlocked right now, and I've watched enough of these to know what usually happens next: the free period ends and the community…

Small thing with a real effect. It takes long enough to be ready that I now start it first and make coffee while it loads, rather than opening it when I wa…

Every other default is recoverable. A bad sizing default isn't, it's the one that decides how big your mistakes are, and a new user is least equipped to ev…

Writing this while it's fresh, because in a month I'll have forgotten what wasn't obvious.

Said with affection for both. The tool executes what I decide. The thing I actually needed help with was deciding, and that's been happening here.

the screen has more moving parts than i need. i'm not asking for features to be removed, i'm saying the default layout assumes i want to watch everything a…

Not praise for its own sake, a note about which part of the workflow actually changed my behavior.

There's no leaderboard, no streak counter, no celebration when a trade goes well. I've used tools that had those and they made me worse. They turned a proc…

I still don't make money consistently, and I now know why, which is not the same thing but is more than I had before.

The iteration loop is fast, and I've come to think that's a mixed blessing for people like me.

Not a complaint about the software. A complaint about me, posted in case it's useful.

Individually trivial, collectively a papercut collection:

The separation of risk from strategy is the right design, and I've said so elsewhere. My complaint is about discoverability, not architecture.

Most things work. But the assumptions underneath are equity assumptions, and it shows in small places — session-shaped defaults, daily boundaries that mean…
