Post subject:  Manual backtesting with multiple timeframes

Hi,

it would be nice to have an option, to be able to test manually (without chosing strategy) a chosen instrument(s) on multiple timeframes (1m, 15m, 1h, 4h, etc).

Its like having open charts of say eurusd 1m, 15m, 1h and 4h, and being able to backtest manually by hitting preset key, candle by candle (to simulate real account trade with multiple charts, with multiple timeframes), being able also to by or sell (also manually), posting pending orders... Being able to do everything you can do on a real trading account, but in backtesting mode!

That would be awesome!

The link no longer works on this reply. Can it be found somewhere else?

Hi dns_di:

Just clone the Historical Tester Chart and adjust for the time frame you want... You can clone charts the number you want and adjust the time frame on each one of them.

I hope that helps

Hi:

I forget to say i created a strategy to allow manual trading on Historical Tester... You can get it here...
It's the "myOfflineTrades" strategy.

Trade well

Can I bump up this question in the most humble manner?
