Forex pairs backtest auto scanning

CKW · 2019-06-26T10:46:32+00:00

Hi, Just wondering if anyone is using auto way to backtest many forex pairs & different time frame when you know it’s going to work on some of pairs on certain time frame 🙂 Currently, I am doing this manually. I created 6 charts in one screen with different timeframe (5m,10m,…1H,2H,…). When all backtest are done, I do a screenshot with my phone (or pc) then shortlisted the pair & timeframe which generates “not bad” equity curve for more details analysis as soon as I am free. Just wondering if anyone can do this with an auto script (windows). It saves a lot of works whenever a code is change, we can freely to rerun it while we’re away from desk. br, CKW

With PRT version 11, it is now possible to launch backtest on more than 1 instrument at the same time.

So it is you who is slowing the backtest engine down! 🙂

Only teasing! 🙂
