here are some explanations for the new Pathfinder swing V2 features:

ONCE maxProfit = 5000 // payout certain amount of money

Pathfinder swing idea based on the concept that the robots accumulate positions in the correction of a potential up trend. This logic means that most of the positions are in loss at the beginning and I have the feeling that this is hard for some of the traders. With the variable maxProfit the position will closed at the next open bar if the profit is above that level. With this little logic the number of profitable trades can be increase but of course it will limit the potential profit as well.

ONCE accumulationModeLong = 0 // 0 - off, 1 - on
ONCE accumulationModeShort = 0 // 0 - off, 1 - on

As mentioned above we expect that based on statistical analysis the price will probably recover after a correction.  In V1 the algo cumulates carefully  but if we know we are probably in a very bullish or bearish setup we can accumulate more aggressively. I have added two further conditions for cumulation but take care higher positions mean higher drawdowns as well. If the accumulation mode is switched off it works like in V1.

previousDailyHigh = DHigh(2)
previousDailyLow = DLow(2)

//...

// long position conditions
l1 = signalline CROSSES OVER dailyHigh
l2 = signalline CROSSES OVER previousDailyHigh // used only if accumulation mode is active
// short position conditions
s1 = signalline CROSSES UNDER dailyLow
s2 = signalline CROSSES UNDER previousDailyLow // used only if accumulation mode is active

// long entry with order cumulation
IF (l1 AND f2) OR ( accumulationModeLong = 1 AND (l2 AND f2) ) THEN 

V2 can used for short trading now. The logic is controlled by the well known saisonal settings -multiplier.

ONCE May1 = -1
ONCE May2 = -1
ONCE June1 = 0
ONCE June2 = -1

// short entry with order cumulation
IF  (s1 AND f1) OR ( accumulationModeShort = 1 AND (s2) ) THEN
IF saisonalPatternMultiplier < 0 THEN
IF (COUNTOFPOSITION + (positionSize * ABS(saisonalPatternMultiplier))) <= maxPositionSize THEN
SELLSHORT AT MARKET
ENDIF
ENDIF
 
// close long position only
IF saisonalPatternMultiplier > 0 THEN
SELL AT MARKET
ENDIF
ENDIF

Depending of the instrument short results are better if the accumulation mode for the long or short side is activated. Please be aware that you can’t trade long and short with the same robot.
