Weekend MT4 Demo server

Does anyone know of a weekend demo server which feeds live ticks through! I get spare time on weekends and would like to run forward tests... I have seen ppl allure to the existence but can't seem to find any supplier!

TIA

Think about it...

Is the market open on the weekends? How can live ticks come through?

I am interested in a simulated walk! I believe that you allured to one in previous posts ?

There are simulators (see my profile for the link to one). But they use historical data.

Thank you but it was for the testing of EA's so needs a form of order processing!

The EA only works in forward testing! So needs a live feed!

Come on RR if anyone knows its u

Pardon me if I come off as too harsh.

You're being an idiot.

Ticks generally come from price changes. Price changes from trades placed on the market. If there are no trades happening on the market, then there are no price changes, if there are no price changes, then there are no ticks.

You are trying to forward test an EA. In order for that test to be effective, you need the EA to run when the market is open, when trades are being placed. If you try to run the EA when the market is closed, the test becomes invalid.

My suggestion is you either re-read all of babypips.com (Not just the school part), or get out of EA-trading. You clearly aren't ready for it.

He deserved the slam RR. Luca was over the line. No respect for the profession or others who know much more than him. Unfortunately there are many more like him on this forum who usually just get ignored.

I don't understand what all the angst in this thread is all about, the OPs question is perfectly valid. I replay stored data all the time to test trading logic, in response to the OPs original question, though it is not a MT4 solution, Ninjatrader will generate a parameterized random walk to test trading logic offline.

As I understand it Craig, the OP is under the impression that the markets are open on the weekends.

The posts are a bit opaque, but I got the overall impression that he wanted to test his order logic in the weekend. Oh well, either way, he's got some answers

Thank you Craig that was exactly what I was looking for!

In the mean time I found sending ticks from Excel from previous data and sending back order logic to excel to handle order processing just as effective!

Thanks!

Also I can't believe that someone hasn't done this! (Setup a Demo server which can be operated at any time with tick data for selected !)

Testing how a EA handles previous market conditions is paramount! And the strategy tester is second rate at best! Getting quality tick data for all the pairs isn't expensive! Very surprised !!!

Hi

Can anyone tell me how to use random price data which will be used for back testing on meta trader.

Thanks
