Hello everyone!
I am a long time reader of this forum but new to posting, so I'm not sure I am putting this in the correct section. Please bare with me.
I have been testing a new strategy but have no idea how to back test using software as people seem to do all the time on here. So I'm hoping someone here can offer some help and advice for how I could speed up my testing. At the moment I use forextester and basically manually test my strategies by moving the charts forward one click at a time. I'm sure you can appreciate how time consuming that is.
I do not use MT4 but I have downloaded a version as people on here seem to think that is good for doing this kind of fast back testing. If anyone can help with advice about how to use automated testing, or the programming needed to achieve this on MT4 or ForexTester, that would be great.
Thanks for all your time and help.
