Backtesting
With our charts you are able to test how your strategies would work against real market data.
Using the ProBackTest feature you can utilise past data and create your own scenarios – either with the manual program or with our 'Assisted Creation' option if you are not confident with computer programming.
This way you can trial your theories before deciding whether to commit to a real trade through the chart using DealThru.
Using ProBackTest
You can open a backtesting module by clicking the 'Indicator / Backtest' button on any charting window, then the ProBackTests tab.
Here you can select a new backtesting module, modify or delete an old one. The default for a new module is 'Assisted Creation', which means you do not have to write a single line of code; to change to manual programming, select the 'Creation by Programming' tab.
Now you can begin developing your backtest strategy. For detailed information see the Help Manual available on the charts main menu.
