Best,

I have Pathfinder Swing dax daily in live account and got a notification that it is stopping. I know IG servers went down (couldn’t log in) after market closed yesterday (friday) – maybe that is the reason…
It has a position which is in profit. If it doesn’t close the position and let it run – will the code continue to look for an exit or should I set a stop loss myself?
should I set a stop loss myself?
If it says the System / strategy is stopping and you haven’t got the box ticked to close trades under such scenarios then yeah deffo set a stop loss yourself. Even if you have the box ticked I would set a stop loss … if you can!?
Even close it if you can … never wrong to take a profit … there is always another day to fight the markets! 🙂
I guess you mean set stop loss via the IG Platform and thereby turn the trade into a manual trade??

Yeah, I saw that it was set to closed by default now.
I started a new account for automatic/systematic only and I really want to keep any manual interference to a minimum, but I guess you’re right. I wasn’t sure if the strategy somehow still runs in the background or if orphan means that it’s on it’s own, but the latter makes most sense and then I better set a stop loss. Thanks for the advice.
I really want to keep any manual interference to a minimum,
You could wait until the DAX trades again on Sunday night at 23:00 (uct+1) and then either the strategy will stop no problem or you may end up with strategy stopped and an orphan trade … so keep a watch out for orphans!

Hello Guys,
Since this topic came up again, I was intrigued to do a full analysis of how the full year swing strategies performed since creation. I must say I am surprised. I forgot about them completely as I marked them as failure.
See attached the picture with all indices swing strategies I created. I created them more or less 1,5 years ago.
They are long only strategies. Analysis is a bit distorted as 1 contract in DOW, Dax, FTSE etc. has now obviously a higher value than 10 years ago.
@Gianluca, I included your mentioned MIB strategy. I am happy for you that you were very lucky since creation date as all 9 trades were profitable.
Nevertheless, I am very cautious with that strategy as it has only a backtest of 53 trades.A swing daily trade should not made too much trade in my opinion. And should be appropriate to the market and the moment that the market is living. As i said before, is useless to use a system backtested taking into consideration the years before 2008. I am speaking for the MIB algo. Mib was over 30k before the big crisis and after that moved betwen 14 and 24.5 that why i create the system to take in consideration only that period.
Btw you make a great work.
Hi, guys by scrolling thorugh the most part of the forum im wondering if this is still working. And what would be the most optimized right now?
