Hi Alco,

My idea is that this is the same discussion as i had earlier this week about the Premium and Complete version.

This got a bit out of hand and created in the end more confusion than when it started.

When i got a an account at PRT i got the Premium version sponsored by IG and nothing ever changed for me.

But it seemed that in different countries different versions (not 10.2 or 10.3 ) are available with different history.

My suggestion to you is to call the Dutch representive for PRT Johan van der Meer.

He is very helpful and also set-up for me the account a couple of years ago with IG.

Johan: +31 (0) 76 760 2842

email: johan-vandermeer@prorealtime.com

Let me and others know what the outcome was please.

Hi Patrick

Please accept my apologies … I think it was me ‘muddying the waters’ re your discussion on Premium / Complete versions a few days ago.

Best Regards

Thanks Patrick,

I didn’t follow all the discussions.

I will contact Johan and hopefully he could upgrade my prt to the premium version.

FYI and about optimisation, I’d like to introduce the new Walk Forward analysis tool, now built-in into the platform:

https://www.prorealcode.com/blog/learning/strategy-optimisation-walk-analysis/

I know it will be useful for all people helping here. Because I contributed with PRT to build this new tool, I know its pros and cons but it’s definitely something that we will use in any strategies’ optimisation now.
It’s only available since today for prorealtime software customers, but will come in few weeks for all IG/PRT-CFD ones..

I have had contact with Johan, and it is not possible for clients who already have an IG account. Only way to get the premium version is when you are a client from prt and if you open an new ig account on their website.

I just managed to open a PRT account via their website with IG while I already have an IG account. All you need to do is use different email address. Very simple guys.

Thanks Alco.

Ok, that is indead how it went back than. I was already a PRT customer and later i opened an IG account with the help of Johan.

That is clear than. Hopefully he gave you tips to get one or maybe follow Malek’s instructions.

I still can not figure out what the last two abbreviations MAE and MFE in the BT report mean.

I’m pretty sure it is a result of the new tick by tick BT feature, but how it comes to these results?

I understand that when the overall result is positive also a negative MAE or MFE is green, but the performance

is not the result of these both. I also checked Nicolas his video about the tick by tick BT but it wasn’t there. I guess this option was added later.

Anyone?

Thanks.

Yes it was added later, and it has nothing to deal with tick/tick backtest.

MAE : Max Adverse Excursion

MFE : Max Favorable Excursion

Basically, it means how far in the wrong (MAE) or good (MFE) direction the trade has went during its life.

Hi Reiner,
I just call customer support about the rollover on the 2 positions CFD FUTURE : Wheat and Corn (Future March 2017).
Unfortunately, rollover is not managed by ProOrder although it works in backtest.
Only the backtest later will tell us at what level these 2 positions will be closed.
So I decided to close those 2 positions.
How do you deal with this issue ?
Thanks,
Arno

Hi Arno,

I didn’t consider that the March future is end of trading next week – sorry for the inconveniences. I bought corn, wheat and soybeans ETFs and didn’t trade the futures.

Best, Reiner

Enclosed you’ll find a Pathfinder swing performance track report from this year. The report shows the result of 7 4H versions (DAX, FTSE, EU STOXX, DOW, HS, NIKKEI, ASX) and all swing robots of my demo account (100k).

This week the equity curve has flattened and we have our first significant drawdown -1.5%.

I have updated the first post with the robots for the next period Mar1. I have added two new indices China and India to diversify the portfolio. Please check the roadmap for the right instrument settings.

Good trades and best regards,

Reiner

Hi Reiner,

Sorry i don’t understand.
You manually copy on ETFs the positions taken by Pathfinder-W-F2M12A12-swing-V1.itf and Pathfinder-C-F2M1-swing-V1.itf on CFD FUTURE. But monday evening, these 2 automatic strategies will stop due to the rollover that not managed by ProOrder in live.
How will you know when to close these 2 ETFs positions after the 2 automatic strategies stop ??

Have a nice week end !
Arno
