Pathfinder Trading System

Reiner · Thu, 22 Sep 2016 19:00:38 +0000

Hi guys, this topic is for all discussions related to the Pathfinder trading system strategies. The system based on four components that work perfectly together. signalline – instrument trend line based on two smoothed averages (Wilder and Time Series) breakout levels – previous daily, weekly and monthly high/lows in combination with fast and slow averages as filters because not every breakout is profitable saisonal behavior – position size will be boost with a multiplier for each month depending on the historical seasonal behavior smart money and position management – grid orders, maximal position size monitoring, superordinate stop loss/take profit, trailing stop and maximum holding periods are used mechanisms The Pathfinder breakout logic works well for many instruments with 24 hour quotes such as DAX, DOW, FTSE, Hang Seng, NIKKEI in 4 hours timeframe. All versions are optimized for an 10k Euro account. 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 guarantee 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 is my private and fully transparent algorithmic trading project exclusively implemented for ProRealTime 10.3. 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. Please find below the last released Pathfinder trading system versions for suitable instruments.

Hi

I don’t know whether it is allowed but I can test and work with 10.3 live.
It is sufficient to start the browser and exchange in the adress the 2 with a 3.

@ italian guys

Da me in Svizzera funziona tutto con tutti i dati.

In Swizerland 10.3 is stil running if you change it in 10.3.

Hi Reiner – Firstly, thanks so much for your amazing contribution and continued hard work here, it is much appreciated and I’m sure everyone else feels the same. I am following this with interest and so far so good but have now come across a similar issue that @ Alco mentioned earlier. The trading system gets stopped because of the same “preloadbars” error. It suggests that there are not enough loaded. My setting is 10,000 preloadbars but I have also used 2,000 and 20,000 and still get the same error. Every couple of days the ATS stops.

It has only happened on 1 ATS so far repeatedly which is the DAX 4H V6 both in Live and in Demo which is strange as the rest of the pathfinder ATS are fine and the setting and code is exactly the same ie. DEFPARAM PRELOADBARS = 10000. Don’t know why it only freaks out on this ATS. Any ideas as to the cause ? Anyone else here found the solution ?

Many thanks.

Hi manel,

I never have seen this message for one of my systems and unfortunately I have really no idea what is the reason for this behavior.

@Nicolas: could you please advise

Thanks, Reiner
