i think intuition is the key to discretionary trading and one of the
impossible elements to program. sure, you can get at my conscious
rules, including the rules stashed in the back of my head. but i
believe intuition operates in the unconscious. there's no way to
program that, much less study it!
so what you're trying to do is indeed impossible. how creative and
intuitive processes operate in the human mind will remain unknown
until one can model those processes. just my opinion.

detailed principles of bird flight in order to develop an airplane.
Again, it ain't easy, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.
I believe "intuition," for 99% of all discretionary traders, is just
another word for "some rules I have stashed back in my head that I
really don't understand." Like I said, those deeply buried rules are
damn hard to pry out of the expert's head, but again, it's not
impossible.
