How to backtest more than one quarter with Esignal

paulr · May 13, 2003

When using the Esignal backtest engine no matter how many days I set my chart to load (say 200 days) it only backtests the ES until Feb. 14

I set the ES symbol to ES #F

Has anyone been able to test a year of data with Esignal?

thanks

daily or intraday?

Intraday or Daily? Intraday is limited to 60 days still.

Intraday.

Is there a plan to increase this? Like to several years?

Thats the only reason I still use Qcharts - their intraday data goes back to 1997.

Esig is in the process of expanding the intraday data, they are supposed to have a year or two's worth eventually.
