Human-approved automation: why your sign-off matters

Why My Metric Trade requires explicit approval before any strategy runs — and how that single step changes the relationship between investor and automation.

The approval step is not optional

Before any strategy goes live, you see a plain-language summary of exactly what it will do. You then choose to approve it. This is not a formality — it is the moment where automation becomes your decision, not a system's.

What approval means

Approving a strategy means you have read the rules, understood the conditions, reviewed the safeguards, and decided this is what you want to happen. The system then executes your decision — consistently and without emotion.

You can always stop

Approval is not permanent. You can pause, edit or stop any strategy at any time. Automation runs with your ongoing consent, not despite it.
