Hi, today I want to write a quick note about the behavioral aspects of systematic investing and typical traits which could show that YOU are indeed made for systematic investing strategies (or not).
have found it much easier to identify WHICH systematic strategy resonates than put in the massive effort to continuously adapt and execute my own. one may fit this description if immediately finding weak points (easy : high fees!)
this does not preclude some discretionary experience being put to use by preferred managers who will probabilistically succeed !
Good example. Your experience shows that what I described in the post is basically an exercise of identifying all the pieces and fitting them together.
I would have a hard time following a systematic strategy developed 100% by someone else because I love tinkering too much and I have trust issues. But that's just me.
If you come to the conclusion that you need a systematic strategy but you don't want/need to give it your own personal touch, copying or subscribing to a predefined strategy (or manager or ETF) is totally fine and best for you!
