One setting in your trading robot can wipe out a week of profit.

By Alan Solarsh · 12 November 2026

One setting in your trading robot can wipe out a week of profit. The name sounds so strange that you never touch it.

You are at your laptop, looking at the settings list for your robot. One word in the dropdown makes no sense to you. You pick an option and change one small number. You have no idea what the robot will do to your account next.

In this clip, Alan shows that the dropdown changes the strategy and the number changes how it performs. He runs one chart and predicts the next trade. When the trade doesn't happen, he asks the AI why.

Pros: You learn what each word and number does, so you stop guessing and start checking. When your prediction is wrong, you get an answer.

Cons: It is slower than clicking past the word. You have to test one chart at a time. And a right prediction does not mean a profit.
