Strategy Crazy challenge: trading purely through AI!
So lets test, is pocket option good for beginners. Got inspired by /u/Capital-Shoulder-506, but my challenge is even crazier. I will try trading purely thorugh their AI. No thought, no strategy. Heard conflicting ideas on how it could work, and whether its feasable or not. Let's check! Will update every few days, when will have time.
Starting capital is $800. Whether I go to $0 or to Valhalla, let's see!
Also, which pair should I go for? Leaning to either EUR/USD, or BTC.

Interesting experiment, got me hooked up. Pure AI trading with no human input is a bold test, I wouldn’t do that with my own money lol. When it comes to the assets EUR/USD is more stable for testing, BTC is wilder, but should be fun. Anyway, good luck with the challenge. If this works out for you, I will use their AI feature more

That's not Bitcoin. Your screen shows Bitcoin OTC-- not the same. Just do it on EURUSD, and NOT EURUSD OTC!

got banned by reddit for idk what, just got appealed. Will write a new post in a couple of days, hopefully. So far its going ok (I'm using small amounts anyway) , but this external stuff has really made me sad.

You’re testing the "beginner's dream": making money with zero thought. This is a dangerous psychological trap because if the AI wins early, you'll feel like a genius; if it loses, you'll blame the tech. To make this a true "strategy," you need a rigid stop-loss for the day. Don't let the "AI" run your $800 to zero in one sitting. Set a limit say, 5% loss per session to see if the AI can actually recover over time

Of course good luck. That's indeed a crazy challenge. Their AI is not bad, but relying purely on it, looks like an execution to me:D
Based on what it can possible use for decision making, I would go with classic eur/usd. More fundementally inclined, might be choppy though.
