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.

Hello guys, i have a problem with Path Dow (wallstreet cash). Today at 12pm (berlin) the TS opened a trade, but in the backtest it doesn’t. Where could be the problem?

Here the screenshot and the TS.

@Gianluca

fractions: this behavior is intended to scale the risk linearly, fractions are supported by IG

trailing: works, I’ve watched it several times in life trading

life/demo and backtest: backtest needs an additional candle before the data is synchronized again

Hi guys,

here the latest versions of all Pathfinder 4H robots. I checked all settings for the available instruments and changed the robots to the latest code.

From now on, the position size of all robots is controlled by the risk controller. By default, the current start risk is 25% for all indices.

Of course, everyone can increase the risk according to their risk willingness.

@pfeiler: could you please update Pathfinder’s dropbox – Thanks

Not trading in the 2nd half of January 2018 due to seasonality rules avoided an additional loss of 1700 €.

I’ve taken the V8 Pathfinder off of forward testing due to the stupid ‘only 25 strategies’ rule. How has it faired since it started at the new year? (I’m being lazy and can’t be bothered to run a backtest!)

Hi Patrick,

as requested, here is a current Pathfinder 4H V7 version for crude oil based on MichiM’s work. Unfortunately I have no longer data history for CL (only 3 years) so please be careful. Start risk is 50% and scaled up until 125%.

@pfeiler: please add the robot into the dropbox – Thanks

regards,

Reiner
