Hello,

The Replay feature was recently added to the JForex platform's fourth version, and it is extremely well designed and practical. Thank you very much for including this feature in the new version. So, people can now quickly test their strategies on this platform.

However, I have a few suggestions that, if implemented in future releases, will elevate and distinguish your platform in the field of backtesting.

1- Please implement an automatic lot size calculation based on the user's "risk percent" input in the ordering widget. In this case, the user can trade on the backtest/replay mode based on the risk percent in each trade, making capital/risk management a breeze.

2- The ability to save the backtest with all completed trades so that the user can pick up where they left off.

3- The report section needs to be developed and improved so that the main parameters of each standard statement can be considered. Gross profit, profit factor, win/loss rate, average Risk/Reward ratio, maximal and relative drawdown, consecutive wins/losses, and account growth graph are just some of the statistics available.

I appreciate your time and consideration.

Best Regards;

Thank you for the feedback.

1. Well, this is probably too much and too complicated for the built-in UI. The position size management is a very subjective topic. I am sure if we add one, we will never stop adjusting it to the needs of different users. For this purpose the Historical tester with the visual mode enabled has to be used.
2. Sounds like a lot of trouble for the developers.
3. Yes, the whole UI of the Strategy tester (ex. Historical tester) is going to be changed, including adding different statistics.
