@Patrick, I have done v3 versions that are ok also. However, it is sometimes very hard or impossible to recreate a v2 algo in v3. E.g. PL Dec2.
@O-jay8, I have used your sector version to start from. I will have something done this week.
Hi David,
how’s it going with all your Pathfinder robots – especially with your sector robots – I’ve seen some really big numbers in both directions?
you have requested some help with the new V3 template – sorry for my late response. I checked V3 and found a strange behavior in the new code. The mechanism to save maximum candle settings in the case of period has changed doesn’t works as expected because of the ONMARKERT variable.
If ONMARKET AND (currentDayOfTheMonth = 1 OR currentDayOfTheMonth = midOfMonth + 1) THEN
validMaxCandlesWithProfit = maxCandlesWithProfit
validMaxCandlesWithoutProfit = maxCandlesWithoutProfit
ENDIF
That is probably the reason why you got so different results with V2 and V3.
I removed ONMARKET and reformatted some things in the way I saw it in your code. Please find attached two samples for DAX (long Nov-Dec) and platinium (long Dec – Feb) with the adopted V3.
regards, Reiner
Thank you Reiner. Hopefully your changes solves the problem. I will do some testing today.
Since September 1 I have made about 13.000 on the sector robots, though the total drawdown at one point was 30.000. I have scaled down a bit now with your latest robot you posted in that thread. I will try that a while.
Have a nice Sunday.
Best regards, David
Hi Guys,
Quite bad results the last weeks. Lets hope the end of the year will create some profits again.
Here my algos for Nov1, still V2.
Cotton, Copper,
After Reiner updated v3 I will stick to that from now on.
AEX and ASX v3:
BUND and CAC v3. Set PositionSize to 1 for minimum drawdown.
CT and DAX v3:
Set PositionSize to 1 for DAX for minimum drawdown.
DOW and FTSE v3:
Set PositionSize to 1 for minimum drawdown.
STXE and US500 v3:
Set PositionSize to 1 for minimum drawdown.
Unfortunately I have found that the periodThirdMA of the period previous to the one you are optimising affects the results.
So If you have optimised Nov1 and then wants to add your numbers for Oct2, then you will probably affect the results for Nov1.
Reiner, do you know why this happens?
Hi Dajvop, Did you use the new V3 version posted by Reiner? There he corrected some problems and the results in V3 are quite close to V2.
I double checked couple of Algos but they are unfortunately not identical.
