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.

@maleknf

I can confirm DAX 4h short live, but that question actually belongs in the other thread 🙂

Don’t know about refused China trade, sorry.

@bertholomeo / Bertrand I owe you an apology … I doubted the integrity of your ‘Gold Swing Optimisation’, but clearly you knew what you were doing (and I didn’t!)

Thanks to Patrick / wp01 full and comprehensive explanation, and David / dajvop also, I am now as clever as you!

I’m glad to see good came out of (my) bad and I hope other members benefit from discussions around my faux pas.

@Malek,

My China trade was well executed this morning on a live account.

I’m not sure if you mention live or demo. There can be a lot of reasons why it didn’t effected.

For example: not enough contracts when activated automatic trading. Or you reached the total amount of contracts of your running systems in ProOrder.

The valid date expired; you have to extend it manually unless you add a new system in ProOrder, than it extends automaticly.

Or not enough money on your account. Please check the cancelled/rejected tab on the orderlist. Sometimes it gives the reason when you point with your mouse on it.

Best regards,

Patrick

@Pfeiler,

I didn’t do the S&P because the code is actually for F2,M1 and M2. (still on page one)

I feel really bad for this question, but is anybody even trading these “monthly” programs? I know reiner did and I was happy to support him, but I think the rest is just running these programs on demo.

@flowsen123 I was trading all Reiner’s (Swing + 4H) Live for 2 – 3 weeks, but it reinforced my thoughts that I like to be in control … ‘stand or fall by my own decisions’.

I have now switched all Auto-Systems back to Demo (except 2 with Trades running ) but that was what Reiner was doing anyway and then he used the Demo Auto-System Alert to prompt him to buy respective ETF.

I’m trading both sets in Live – but cautiously. On the odd occasion I intervene and close a position or lock in profits. I am also slightly concerned about the possibility of over-optimisation in some of these so I’m testing myself and being on alert to the price action of the live trades.

If IG changes the min lotsize to 0.1 or something then i would try this, else i think its to much risk (for me anyway)

because to take full advantage of this system you need to have multiple pathfinders running to diversify (as i understand it)

@Paris do you mean Daily Reiner Swing Trades or for any Auto-System?

In any case Live and Demo would be good but clearly segregated.

It would be good to have all the Trades on a spreadsheet … Google Sheets … maybe you should put it up as suggestion for the Site (as if poor Nicolas hasn’t got enough work!). Maybe an offsite public access google sheet on google drive?

Just a few thoughts.
