- We expect to propose here a lot of tools, trading systems and utilities never offered before.
- We focus our development efforts on power and ease of use.
- Parts of this work will be offered on the basis of "pay after testing it", when it will be possible to offer this choice. We believe that you should be able to form your own opinion without having to risk anything except your time, before actually buying something.
- As recognized TradeStation experts and programmers, we also do our best to ensure high quality service with TradeStation, and the custom Object Oriented C++ and JAVA applications we can provide.
- SirTrade Intl. was founded in 1997 by Pierre Orphelin after six years of full time research, mainly using the TradeStation Technologies products as the basis development platform. Close relationships have been established through the years with other talented programmers, and the main research field has been Artificial Intelligence as applied to trading systems.
- I want to thank here Monique Hyvernaud (JEWELSOFT) and Philippe Lembo ( HLG Gestion).
Left to Right: Jack SCHWAGER, Pierre ORPHELIN, Charlie WRIGHT, Grace WANG Hidden : Tom DEMARK, Larry WILLIAMS. Yes, I was there for the premier trading system development conference in Las Vegas (OmegaWorld 99) to introduce the SAFIR-X software concept. I have been also later invited to join a panel discussion on system development ,with the well known people above. Then came a question from the public asked "When do you stop a trading system? " I replied that it never occurred to me ( I cut the system when the2 x max drawdown, actualized was reached, and I never encountered this case in real world). General laughing in the public, and the gentlemen above were to not the last to laugh. Unfortunately, it was true: I explained after that I have tested the systems on so much data that the probability to see them fail as explained above was very low. The secret is in back testing on huge data set: the more you have the best the system will last. And please do it carefully BEFORE trading the system. After, it's too late You may have a look to some of them that are proposed on a free trial basis on this web site, no more in use now because I have now replaced them with neurofuzzy logic, but they have continued to perform on the CAC40 and DAX futures, since their inception in 1994-95. I must confess that before getting this results, I have left to the dustbin hundred and hundreds of unprofitable or risky systems.
This is one of my secrets. The second is work... Conferences held 11/1993 AFATE (Paris, France) Genetic algorithms and automated trading systems search. (With PMSI)

After that, he took a long sabbatical to do market research, as it became impossible to do both things together properly. He has been working on trading system development since1988 (fulltime since 1990), using a real-time data feed and intraday trading systems since 1989. (He was the first TradeStation user working real-time in Europe).
Most of the research has been done using classical analysis techniques, Cycle Analysis, Spectral Analysis, Neural Networks, Genetic Algorithms, and Neurofuzzy Logic which is the flagship of this web site. He was also the Technical Editor of TS EXPRESS, the journal of informed TradeStation Users, published by William Brower, CTA, Inside Edge Systems, USA ( 1994- 2000).
Pierre Orphelin: "I have been selling TradeStation in France since 1992-93, and (I hope:) have provided my customers with the technical support for an efficient use of this powerful software". |  |  |
