Fast Backtest

Overview

The Fast Backtest module provides the possibility to backtest any period of time without displaying the charts, speeding up the whole process.
This feature is very useful to test a trading strategy with several Timeframes and Symbols at the same time.
Fast Backtest is dedicated to automatic trading systems since the user can chose between API strategies or Setup Rules to automatically set orders.
Moreover, by chosing the Setup Rules, you can switch with any Entry or Exit Rules in order to assess the strategy with different ways of entering and exiting the Markets.
At the end of the process, the Statistics Center can be launched to have detailed analysis of the performance.
