Are there any commercial platforms or software that have the ability to backtest actual market data, by that I mean not OHLC data but actual tick and volume data at least 2 years back?

This is from the multicharts wiki "Historical data available for backtesting will, in most cases, be in the form of time-based bars (minute, daily etc.) based on a group of ticks, with only Open, High, Low, and Close prices available. " OHLC is worthless, because my strategy needs real data...

Backtesting is completely worthless. Why would I need to backtest a pattern that I know worked 10 years ago and will continue to work in the future. Your system may work great in back testing, but you show no proof of forward testing or actual real profit.

The other 75% would be a little harder to automate. And prefer to trade it manually. The backtester in ninjatrader uses ohlc data, my strategy's logic needs to process realtime tick data to find valid setups. Therefore I can only forward test it in sim and market replay. Yes can trade at...

Yeah ones a troll and the other one wants you to sign a 10 year contract. If I was fully automated 2 years ago, I wouldnt be selling it now. It sucks that I have to but thats life.

Yeah your right sorry, manually.

True, but ive been trading these signals for about 2 years discresionary whenever I spotted them. Only automated them recently. The signals are based off a p&f pattern ive noticed in crude oil, worked 2 years ago and will continue to work in the future.

Thanks for the reply, you made some good points. Still wondering how would I price the strategy if I wanted to sell 1 copy of the source. What would something like this be worth?

Long story short, I am a discretionary trader trading crude and Nasdaq. Took some heavy losses and blew up my account ( due to not following my plan and taking stupid trades). Decided to automate about 25% of the strategy I was using to daytrade, so far as expected this strategy has been...

Yeah sure, straight up scam

Just had a client that ordered a strategy to trade double tops and bottoms for point and figure charts. The idiot back out right as I finished writing the strategy. Written for ninjatrader, C# He wanted it for forex, but it will work on futures and stocks too. Trades double top or double...

Its not, look at www.atsfutures.com ( patteren only, no indicators), http://dom993trading.com another pattern based system... there are plenty.

Yeah it can be improved, it uses wide stops. On losing days it can lose a lot less.

Will do, this pattern doesnt generate often, and i havent run it live yet. Next time i see a signal ill run it live. ill download some market replay data and increase the slippage

Small adjustment to the stop management

Indicators are just worthless, seen so many traders with a crap ton of indicators on there screens. Stopped using indicators years ago and started to focus on finding patterns. This is a simple strat coded in 15min, not optimized. Just trades 1 pattern no indicators and goes long and short...
