This is where two things are important to understand:
1) By definition, any "homemade" robots developed and/or potentially developed by individuals at home, despite their personal obsession to find a robo-grial, are in reality hundreds of times weaker than automated and semi-automated trading systems of large trading funds and investment houses (GoldmanSachs, BlackRock etc.), where hundreds of creative mathematicians, strategists and programmers work; Therefore, in a competition between robots "crowd" algodtraders will always lose (the results of their robo-strategies are approximated and calculated by neural networks, just like the behavior of gambling traders with independent decision-making),
2) Artisanal robots are many times weaker than a human brain trained to solve dynamic computational problems generated by news and trades of trading funds.
This leads to one simple conclusion: there is no sense for a single trader to spend time on algorithmic junk trading, but only to train their own "neuronet" to solve manual trading problems (+ to develop drivers/scanners and other support algorithms in MQL5 or another platform). This is the way of gladiators in the financial market, practicing and fighting for money.
About me: came to this conclusion last summer, after 5 years of algo research, and now I'm fully focused on training my brain + developing back-office systems (market scans, risk management, etc.). No WOW results so far, but I'm going this route of learning, coaching-> trading, figuring out my blunders, and trading again. The only downside so far is that I have had to give up alcohol completely.

what is the definition? give me the exact source :-)
and the comparison criteria and TC of "funds and houses" ?
About you: I guess it's just fatigue and frustration.
Interesting reflection.
agree

It is quite possible that in 5 years' time you will be back to the algo research).

no
I'd even say that's NOT a disadvantage.
a sober mind, fresh thoughts from a 100% working brain
does the right thing.

Rightly so.
The disadvantage is that you have to be constantly stuck at the monitor, and that sooner or later gets boring.
