The biggest misconception traders have about AI coding

Right now traders think AI helps them code faster.

That’s not what’s happening.

What’s actually happening is a shift in who does what:

Before:
You = programmer
Computer = tool

Now:
You = system designer
AI = junior quant developer

And the bottleneck changed completely.

The hard part is no longer writing Pine Script.
The hard part is:
• specifying rules clearly
• detecting logical mistakes
• preventing hidden repainting
• forcing deterministic behavior

I’ve been rebuilding strategies using this workflow and the results are strange:

Simple ideas become viable again because iteration time collapses.

Bad ideas fail faster.
Good ideas appear more often.

Over the next weeks I’ll document the process publicly — including where AI fails and how to fix it.

Because blindly copying code is the worst possible use of AI in trading.

More soon.
