Back Testing
Posted: Sun Jun 21, 2020 10:03 pm
Hi all,
I am new here and new to trading.
I am trying to adopt a trend trading approch to Forex and technical indicators heavy.
I have been trying to backtest indicators and finding it a long process but accept it needs to be done.
Can anyone please advise of a quicker, smarter, and maybe more accurate way of doing this.
I take a historical 3 year period, place the indicator on the chart and begin ticking off where the indicator gave me signals and record the pips won / loss.
Is there an easier way of doing this? or a simple back testing software I can use?
How do you do it? And if you don't, why don't you?
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
Really appreciate the content I have found here.
Look forward to hearing your comments.
Mr Short!
