One common issue I’ve noticed with new users of AlgoPro and the SwingArm system is the expectation that setups will work flawlessly all the time, regardless of the time of day or specific market conditions.
Many quickly claim that the system “doesn’t work” after only a few attempts. The reality is that no trading system, no matter how powerful or well-designed, will consistently generate profits every single day or week without fail.
Market conditions are incredibly dynamic. Price action and buyer/seller behavior shift dramatically from session to session, and even within the same session. For example, the pace of the market can change during lunch hours, at session closings around the globe, or in response to unexpected news events. These fluctuations are part of the reason why trading is challenging—and why the assumption that you can just turn on a tool and print money is unrealistic.
If you’re just starting out with AlgoPro or the SwingArm, it’s essential to invest the time to learn how various factors impact your trading instrument. Volatility, session times, and global market conditions can all influence price movement, and understanding these nuances is crucial. Without this knowledge, your use of any tool—no matter how sophisticated—will likely result in frustration.
To succeed, you must be willing to dedicate the time to study and observe how your instrument behaves in different environments. Trading isn’t just about turning on an algorithm and waiting for profits. If you’re unwilling to put in the effort to understand these market behaviors, you may need to reconsider whether trading is the right path for you.
Learning to trade takes time, patience, and a willingness to adapt. The tools are there to help, but they can’t do the work for you.
