What this task is

Traders decide trade direction, position size and stop-loss levels based on macro conditions, market sentiment and price action, and choose the moment to enter or exit each position.

How AI replaces it

Quant models already make some of these calls, and since 2024 machine learning and LLMs have been used to combine news and data into trading signals. Most strategy decisions are expected to be AI-driven by 2032, though models can still break down when markets shift abruptly.

What stays human

Traders set risk limits, step in during extreme market conditions and judge when a model no longer fits reality, so their role becomes closer to that of a strategy supervisor.
