You seem to have changed the maxpositionsize (line 36 and 37) from the original 10 to 6.
If I run the backtest with your figures, the system closes on the 21st, but with the original it closes today.

Hi!
Thats why. Your code only buys two Times if season multiplyer is set to 3 and maxcandleslongwithoutprofit resets after each buy.

Ok thanks guy for your answer
bad luck for me
Shouldn’t trading hours be different with for example DOW for the timezone difference?
ONCE startTime = 90000
ONCE endTime = 210000
Hi,
A little bit late, but my DOW live also closed april 21st with a loss. I use Reiner’s last version. Strange differences…..
@gforton
Please upload your version for testing.

hi guys, i have one answer….
how do you optimize a trading system like this?
there are too many variables, prorealtime can’t manage all.
so, what do you do?
first optimize signal line, then filter, then seasonal multipler, and at least stop loss and take profit?
or other order?
@reiner?
THANKS!!

The guide to start with the optimisation can be found in post 19123 in the other PF TS swing forum.

What’s your opinion?
Will you keep your positions open this weekend, having the french election in mind?

good question
2 weeks ago, I have cut my positions and there was a big gap monday morning
Thnaks to polls, Macron should be president, a bullish gap may happen
but we often say : buy the rumor, sell the news, so I don’t know what to do
