Back Tester
The back tester allows you to create trading rules using indicators to
buy and sell based on signals the indicators emit. You can then run
"what if" scenarios and then display the results in detail. Overall,
you can use the back tetser to test your ideas for profitability. The
back tester dialog contains several pages of options you use to create
and fine tune your trading rules. The page options are as follows:
Rules - This is where you select the
indicators to be used.
Stops - This is where you select the
stops the rule will use when trading.
Testing - The finer details that apply
to a particular test such as margins, account balance etc.
Reports - This is where the trading
summary will be found along with each trade detail that apply to the
most recent test.
Charts - Displays an equity curve chart
and buy/sell point chart.
