I have been involved in the financial markets since 2010. Initially, I chose systematic trading because I was intrigued by the question: How exactly do people earn money? I knew how they drew triangles, how they counted waves, and how they conversed about economics while staring at charts all day. None of these were of interest to me; my interest lay in profit.

But profit is a result, and before the result, there is the setting of goals, and between setting goals and achieving results, there is a plan. This is the essence of the systematic approach. Thus, a systematic approach, starting with a fundamental question, opens up a broad field of opportunities, which then narrows down to specific trading strategies that yield profit for the trader.
