Hello, my name is Sergiu and I'm trying to practice trading. What I'm trying to find is a simulator of the past year with the posibility to trade an account in it that has the 1 day and 15 minute chart available. I've read an article a few days ago about one which had even the option to save and load from point when trading. I think it will speed up my experience building in trading the 1day chart

Yours thankfuly,
Sergiu.

Here you go.
I didn't create it, got it from a fellow trader here on FF (Ronald Raygun). Its an extremely useful tool. Just load it up onto your MT4 and follow some instructions and you'll be good to go.

Edit: I've download MT4 from their website. Seems FXCM, where i have a demo account requires me to download MT4 from their website. The hell with them, I've heard bad things about them anyway. I will try to open a demo account at AlpariUS-Demo or any other broker i find on google, but I'm open to suggestions.

P.S.

Thanks ACE a lot!

Opened an account on alparius and all goes well. If i can only figure out how to automatically put stop loss at 100 pips against and stop profit at 200 pips

When you're running the program in Strategy Tester, input 15 min or whatever timeframe you want. The only thing is that you can't switch between time frames during testing. You would have to stop the tester, and change time frames, then start it again.

Loaded the simulator and ran it just as the documents states. Really brilliant and a great way to get in practice particularly when the brokers shut shop over the weekends.

As the simulator is itself an EA what would be good is to remodel the capability in such a way that it can be used to test EA's themselves. Any suggestions or is there already a capability like that out there? Regards.

I decided that I might try this one as an alternative to the VHands simulator, now I have a question: the PDF document states only STOP orders... doesn't it have also the possibility of adding LIMIT orders?

Ace284:
Could you please tell us how to use limit orders? Maybe it is any additional script? Thx.
