Pathfinder swing TS

Reiner · Sun, 01 Jan 2017 12:18:50 +0000

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.

@David,

I think you also had the Silver 500oz running. It seems like we’ve been robbed by IG.

Around 01.00 hours this morning a spike down to 1.437 and stopped out and one minute later nearly back to the previous close.

No other dataprovider showed this spike down to this target. I have a very uncomfortable feeling about this.

Do you have any thoughts about this?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Patrick

@Patrick, yes I had Silver running live and got stopped when the spike hit.

Have you had any experience with IG dealing with this sort of thing before?

@David,

A couple of months ago with the rollover of the Chicago wheat. They settled it wrong and they closed the position instead of rolling it over.

It was stopped out due to incorrect stops. That was in the end op april, so that must have been the May future.

It costed me € 460,00 and they also did not put the correct futures in my porto.

I mailed them and sent them all kind of evidence. They apologized and they added the right futures in my porto and credited me the money.

But this is something different. This looks like stop-running. Since they have their internal prices it is you against them. What can you proof?

That others have different prices? That is the problem i have with IG. It is never transparant because they create their own market. The chart of the 5000 Oz shows the same spike.

They see all stops and limits. Easy to manipulate when you see for example 20 or 100 (Pathfinder)stops in your orderbook. Hardly any movement last days and in the night they steal your money.

Our stop was at $ 1.483. It dropped to $ 1.437. The prize was around $ 1.600, which is a drop of 10% in 1 minute.

I have no clue what to do about it.

I will try to get my contact at IG to fix this or at least comment. You do the same on your side.

Best regards, David

I have already sent them an email with the explanation that this price and the drop of 10% is impossible.

The prices are provided by a couple of businessbanks and they say they take the best price and build their spread around it.

That is what they told me in earlier cummunication regarding an other issue. So, important is that they can show us the price they got

from their dataproviders.

I think it is acceptable, but that is for each and everyone to decide 🙂
