NinjaTrader has a "Strategy Wizard" that will allow you to create your strategies without any programming. You just enter the conditions you want and it creates the code for you.

Save time from inputting all the data in Excel. What are you looking for? You asked how to backtest without learning to code. You don't want a program such as this to help you manually backtest the "strategy". You don't want to learn to code so you cannot use the trading platforms created for...

It does not figure out your system. You place your orders on the chart and it will match trades and generate a performance summary and graphs. So it basically eliminates the need to do any data entry or calculations in Excel.

The attached file should work with Excel 2003.

This spread sheet should help.

Here's my best. Still a work in progress though!

I've always found it difficult to quantify "Momentum" versus "Mean Reversion" strategies. The best strategy I've traded took mean reversion entries in anticipation of strong momentum to follow. So I was trying to trade both "Mean Reversion" and "Momentum". How do you quantify between these...

NinjaTrader does offer tick by tick backtesting. You just have to build the strategy so that it will operate properly on a 1 tick chart.

Ha, so they do. I did not even have a chance to look at the overnight data before I posted.

Market should keep going up from here. Historical patterns suggest the market could hit the 1210 area in the next 10 or so days.

Pattern Recognition Indicator This indicator does a lot more than a typical RSI, MACD, etc. It basically generates backtesting statistics for every pattern that forms.

Agreed!

Winn-dixie/Save-Rite is closing 3 stores within 1 mile of my house. Im guessing Publix parking lot will soon be packed!

This discussion seems to be getting a bit off topic. I've been using NT7 since Beta Version 1. It has come a LONG way! I believe it was around version 12 when I began feeling that it was getting stable, and now version 19 has been working great for me. Personally, I feel they will probably...

OK, so I've developed a strategy that I've been trading successfully for several years now. At first, I traded public money, and when I lost funding (not due to performance), I began trading my personal account. The strategy was profitable while trading both public and personal money. Now my...

Return/Max Drawdown is a skewed number. If you are trading for 1 year, say you have 10,000 return and 1,000 drawdown. Your ratio is 10. Continuing at that pace for 10 years, your return would be 100,000, and your drawdown would be 1,000. Now your ratio is 100, but the performance did not really...

I believe the general formula is: (AROR-RFROR)/DR; where: AROR = Annualized Rate of Return RFROR = Risk Free Rate of Return DR = Downside Risk Downside risk is generally defined as the standard deviation of negative returns.
