What is a curation trail? And how to configure the ideal settings for your case.
I'll try to help so we have to analyze what is your goal to follow a trail?
1 - Only automate the vote for lack of time?
2 - Give the trail the responsibility of choosing good posts?
3 - Try to get better profitability for your Steem Power through automatic votes?
4 - Contribute to a certain community by voting only on it?

As a CURATOR I look for posts with quality content in texts, images, photos, videos, interviews, tutorials, etc. and that they are promising in terms of coming to receive good rewards in number of votes and value.
For this I select after reading and analyzing the history of other posts by the same author.
In order not to lower my vote too much and also my power, I limited the number of posts to vote at around 15 to 20 per day with 30%.

If you choose and vote before the trail the same post your personal vote is worth it.
