213: What I Learned From NOT Trading Last Year

Show Notes: https://optionalpha.com/show213

Last year during the beta launch of the autotrading platform, I decided to take some time off from trading so that my full and undivided attention was appropriately on supporting groups of beta users during the launch of the autotrading platform. Plus, my live accounts were the proverbial "guinea pigs" for lots of critical testing and bug hunting that could only be found when connecting bots to live markets. But this "reflection time" was not only welcomed because of the time it freed up in my daily routine, it also was enlightening to sit back and observe for an extended period of time. And now that I'm back to trading (with bots of course), I thought it might be helpful to share some of the the things that stuck out most during my time not trading. As they say, self-reflection is scary but necessary for growth.
