Thanks for the additional contributions.

I find trading can sometimes make me S1 dominant - especially after reds, I make more snap decisions in the following markets.

Is there a method of re-balancing one's system, to ensure S1 isn't too dominant and S2 is able to moderate that intuition?

As I've said I'm elsewhere, I'm S1 dominant so the intuition is important to how I trade, but it can sometimes lead me astray.
