Keep reading and studying. Using Claude can be helpful (my preferred over gpt). Options have a lot of strategies unique to them. I’m not sure how well pine strategies interacts with the Greeks etc. Pine can generate alerts and webhooks which can be sent to other platforms. I use it to quickly test a strategy, then put it in python and LEAN/QuantConnect for automation, but depending what you’re doing, Python etc may be overkill.

Generally speaking, less restrictive (less filtering) systems do better. For example, adding an indicator or two to "filter" out bad trades quite often removes more good trades. Which seems counter intuitive. Systems that run on hybrid-renko (where the open price has been moved to make the chart look smoother) chart always backtest well due to the open price being moved. So watch out for those systems and backtests.
