Pathfinder swing TS

Reiner · 2017-01-01T12:18:50+00:00

In this topic I’d like to publish all Pathfinder swing trading algorithms. The swing trading robots based on the Pathfinder daily code and are adapted to the monthly saisonality introduced with the original Pathfinder Trading System. Each month was separated in two parts (day 1 – 15 and 16 – 31) and the saisonal behavior was determined. The idea is to check twice a month for which instruments Pathfinder swing TS find a promising setup based on historical tests. Pathfinder swing robots running in demo account will deliver the trade signal or can trade automaticly in life account as well. Please find attached the Pathfinder swing roadmap for almost 30 instruments. I will attach the robots for the most promising setups on this post for the current/next period. Pathfinder strategies offer a statistical advantage but are of course not a holy grail and there is no guarantee to make money with it. The systems are optimized for historical data and historical gains are not a garantee to be successful in the future. I strictly recommend to adjust the position sizes to your personal account size and try first in demo mode. The results in life trading will differ from the backtest results. I also recommend to start in life trading with a small account size. Anyone can use the programs for free and at their own risk. Pathfinder swing is my privat and fully transparent algorithmic trading project exclusively implemented for ProRealTime 10.2. The status is experimental and I don’t trade all the systems presented here. I would also like to thank all members who have helped to improve the system with their contributions.

Mark, great job with Cooper. I made some small changes and reduced the position size from 3 to 2. I also checked Jan1 and Feb2 but your setup is the best. What a profitable setup butof course not riskless. Welcome in the hall of fame.

Pfeiler, Thanks for your Nikkei backtest. I agree it’s difficult to trade. I added February2 but rating is only a B.

Reiner,

I noticed that there were no one taking care of Cocoa / CC. So I made some backtests and found a promising setup for F1.

Positionsize 1: 82% profitable trades with 8.5% drawdown. Gain: 17,9%
Positionsize 5: 90% profitable trades with 21.6% drawdown. Gain: 101.5%

I also checked J2, but there was no profitable setup to be found and you showed this in the roadmap also.
I would be happy to support you in the future as well. Maybe there are more interesting instruments to check…

Hi Kasper, Barge, OMX Jan has only a few trades and I agree it’s statistical not significant for an algo. You both did the right things. I have made a test from Jan to May and to be honest it’s not my favourite and nothing for the hall of fame.

NExt test for dax (Mar2-apr2). it has 4 zero bar trades, but I verified with v.10.3 and it showed the same result.

Thank you for the hint Alco, this time I tested with 5 point spread.

I have added the best robots that I have reviewed so far to the first post of this topic (hall of fame)

At the moment I plan to attach robots for the current (e.g J1) and the next period (e.g J2). It’s an agile project and I’m open how we proceed.
