Yep. It can be done, but it is not easy. I do what you describe, work a full time job and auto trade during the day. It runs remotely with remote access.
I use Ami Broker as my backtest platform, but use a different platform for execution. I happen to use TradeStation, but there are others that would also work. A software background is a big help.
Building and running a trading system is one of the more challenging things I have done recently. It is not for everyone. It can be rewarding, but it of course also has risk that must be managed.
Getting somthing that backtests well is only the start.
One problem is that it is hard to share the joy of a great trade. If I have a big win and tell my wife, she will say "great" and offer 3 ways to spend the money! I learned to only tell her about loosing trades!

I'm more interested in automated trades since I feel I have missed trades that were very profitable but could not trade them because I work full time. I plan to have the AB notify me by cell phone to do these trades or just automate with human confirmation.
