Hello Sirs,

It is possible to implement into the platform an historical backtest completly offline?

Thank you in advance

Davide

Hi,

Theoretically, this is possible because the platform when online downloads the needed data for the specified period to your local computer and then starts reading this data but the only constraint remains with Visual Jforex processor that will switch to offline and may stop the historical tester although I never tested such kinematic.
Here is the path to the cache folder where the data is downloaded: C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\JForex\.cache
In any case, I don't think that this request will be implemented in the near future.

Hope you can find an alternative solution.

Cheers
