For intraday data

For European Stocks also

with History scenario : for instance, what happens around FOMC rates annoucements when rates are decreased ?

Behold is my preferred back testing program. You can check it out at:

www.bhld.com

It's Mac software that can be run on your PC with an emulator.

Why wasn't Investor RT included in the list? There are a number of traders on this site who backtest with IRT.

Bloomberg is not a backtesting software...

check out dynamite sentimentor. it is a great new backtesting software that generates its signals with a "meta sentimentor". with this meta sentimentor you have an absolutely new way to built profitable systems. i have traded the last six months with that tool and i had some very profitable trades.

you can check it out at www.fipertec.com .

Quote from MarathonTrading:

None of the above is! they all do not offer portfolio backtesting except Wealthlab. TS only offers it with RINA (5000$) and it sucks. TS has failed to deliver it for many years one reason why I left it.
