Discussing the strategy VECTORIAL DAX (M5)
-
where in the code does it calculate the ‘positionsize’ for which PositionSizeLong and PositionSizeShort are derived?
At line 7 you can have positionsize = any value you like. With MM= 0 it won’t change.
// VECTORIAL MM - DJ 3m DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = false DEFPARAM Preloadbars = 50000 //Money Management MM = 0 // = 0 for optimization if MM = 0 then positionsize=.5I have been running a 5m long version of this over the past couple of months. It’s basically a merger between Vectorial and MoD, so far fairly consistent with the back test.

My bad, I didn’t understand it was Your actual result but thought it was the backtest 😉
Below is a backtest for the same dates.
This is well weird … I ran Nonetheless code above again 2 mins ago and got completely different results than I was getting last night!
Nearer / more comparable with None’s now … see attached. I still get far more drawdown though … mine dd at £947 vs None’s dd at £64
I’m putting attached on Forward Test on Monday … MM turned off and Period = 55 at Line 37.
Above is all I explored, I’m sure there would be other beneficial changes?
It be great if we had a Short version or Long and Short in same System?
Thank You for sharing Nonetheless!
Hi Grahal
I get the same results today as yesterday
I made a backtest on the DJ 3m Vectorial V3 for the same period and it has been more succesfull.
I also made one of 200 kptsI find them both interesting!
Thank You @Nonetheless for sharing, it is very interesting as a beginner to se what the more experienced people are doing.
Hi Grahal, how’s it going?
No idea why you got such varying results from this. I have attached the itf, just in case something got corrupted in the copy/paste. Also the 200k back tests for long and short, with a comparison look at the 3m v3. Obviously the latter is only 13 months, as opposed to 32.
I also found some tests that I did back in the spring of the 5m long version … seems to check out. But as I said, I really did this out of curiosity to try marrying Balmora’s Vectorial with MoD … and then I kinda forgot about it.
GraHal thanked this postmore attachments.
MM=0, positionsize = .5
