Alan - YOU ARE RIGHT
Well said, but if you will excuse the poor simile...it is a lot tougher to build a piece of fine furniture with poor tools - there still needs to be a skill level (decision making, execution proficiency, risk management, discipline, chart reading, tape reading, etc.) - of which there is no substitute.
tools don't make the carpenter...or the trader
It could be viewed as an allocation of resources, if you are constantly having to allocate resources - thoughts, concentration, "brain power" to issues of connectivity, hardware, software etc. - those resources have to be taken from elsewhere...possibly from "decision making"
