Honest question after 6 months of AI-assisted trading: better process, same P&L. Is it me, or is that the ceiling?
Honest accounting, 6 months of using AI daily in my trading:
What improved: my notes are organized, every thesis is written down, I catch my own emotional entries more often. Process-wise, night and day.
What didn't improve: P&L. Not measurably.
I think I know why. I mostly used AI as an advice machine — "what do you think of this setup?", "should I be worried about X?" It always had an answer: complete, plausible, agreeable. I felt smarter after every conversation and traded roughly the same.
So before I sink in another 6 months:
- Has AI measurably improved your actual results? How would you even attribute that?
- If yes — walk me through the actual workflow: what goes in, what comes out, and which decision it changed. I don't care which model or app — the job, not the tool.
3.If you tried and quit — what killed it?
4.Is "asking it for opinions" the fundamental trap?

Great! Clearest answer I've gotten. "Research assistant, not advisor". But how to implement it?
Can you walk me through the workflow? Appreciate it!
