help with backtesting software please

Quote from madmax98:

well, thnx for the advice. As for me, i don't use indicators by themselves but i use a combination of things and for m to take a position a stock has to meet a criteria, so this is why i was wondering if i can include that criteria in some kind of software to tweak it a little.

Wealthlab came to my mind first in response to your op. Since that is not of interest and you use combinations of indicators, maybe this software can help: www.stratasearch.com. It might need more coding than you want to do for testing your ideas, but it also has a unique way for "tweaking" those ideas.
 
Clarifi has a solution although its not 100% drag and drop. Its also priced around $100K a year so I hope you run a med - large sized fund.

i tried wealth lab and it didn't work as i wanted it to, for example when i put in the conditions it excuted trades as any of them existed when i wanted all conditions to be met so i don't think it would work for a strategy that has many indicators in it, according to my experience anyway.

In WL, the chartscript wizard (obviously) differentiates between: condition 1 AND condition 2, and: condition 1 OR condition 2. There should be no issue at this stage++

Makes sense that Wealtlab can do this.
 
well, in wealth lab i found it consider either or conitions and not both at the same time, is that the case with trials or with the product period?

The trial version is fine. You can always post your code here so we can fix it++

I am in 100% agreement with QQQ.IMHO,StrataSearch is an amazing software tool that is unlike any other I have used.
 
i gave stratsearch a try today using their processor and it has been running for about 3 hours now!!! with no final results yet.
