JFOREX-1196 : Run the historical tester from my own code

I'd love to be able to call the historical tester from my own code when developing a strategy and optimizing it's parameters. Is this possible?

The ugly alternative is to write my own historical tester. Something I'd like to avoid, but certainly a workable alternative.

Is this possible or planned?

Thanks!

I understand there is going to be the above release to enable to development of systems without the need to run the JForex applications. I.e. I can develop a standalone application using e.g. Eclipse and have it interact with Dukascopy accounts directly.

Can you give me some more info on this please and a link to the api docs, etc.

Thanks.

There is no links and infos yet. Yesterday were released JForex API 2.3 , mentioned feature (single JAR) will be available together with API 2.4 release.
Need to say that this will not be delayed and will have a bunch of cool stuff.
BTW. You can develop strategies in Eclipse or other IDE right now, only to run you have to use the platform.

Very cool!

I'm a lot looking forward to API 2.4 then!
When about can we expect the release of 2.4?
Is the release likely to happen within the next 4 weeks or the next 2-3 months, or ...?

Thanks, RR.

I have the same issue.

So far I can develop strategies in Eclipse, but I have to use the platform to run and test them.

Is there any link/command/code snippet to achieve this from within the IDE?

Thanks for your help.

I think I understood how to run a strategy from within Eclipse for a DEMO account;

is it also possible for LIVE accounts?

With which parameters? how to give the server the PIN code, required for a LIVE account?

Thanks in advance.
