My views are different ST da. I have done both kind of trading i.e. discretionary as well as mechanical. (i was part of team blue at TSF so very well know IDF-VPs and all that stuff). Considering your experience with trading and the number of years spent on trading,you can always say that the performance of mech systems is mediocre as compared to IDF or the other systems you are using. BUT for a newbie trader for whom the target is remaining positive, mech trading systems are not bad,provided he has thoroughly back tested the system. By backtesting i mean running bar replay and not through afls back testing.
Further i would advice to newbies to stop jumping from one TF to other, one script to other when their system is giving chop-zone.
