How To Start Backtesting Forex Trading Strategies

hello everyone this is Hugh and in this video I'm going to show you how to get started with 4x test or two so just for reference I am currently using version 2.93 now you download it for excess 22 you've installed it maybe you play around with it a little bit so how do you get started with some serious testing so the first thing you want to do is you want to make sure that this job down is in history mode and history mode might look a little different from your testing mode so don't worry about that next thing you want to do is you want to go to tools and then you want to go to options um and down here which is initial deposit you want to set that to something that's realistic to you if you're getting started with you know a hundred dollars then you should put a hundred dollars there if you're gonna get if you're going to do a thousand dollars you know whatever $100,000 whatever's suits your situation so just set that their first so that whatever you test it'll be realistic so just want to click on OK and then now go to tools data center and this is the data center window so on the left here are the pairs that have been set up already there should be quite a few at least the major pairs so but if you need to add them then you just add them here you type in the symbol put in the information that specific to your broker and hit OK and it'll get added to list the next thing that you want to set up here is the symbol property so on default will look something like this ok so the Swiss yen so it's going to default to the hundred K lots on and the margin is going to be you know the 100k margin so what I would recommend doing is switching that down to something that's realistic to you so for example with that $5,000 initial deposit that I had on the previous screen I I would be trading only a thousand unit lots and this would be my margin which we you would get from your broker you can adjust the spread if it's significant significantly different from what your broker has but otherwise I didn't touch anything else so if you need to change that you just click on change properties and you just set that all up here the next area down here is the history there's only going to be one broker available right now and that's the default forex tests or data provider data is excellent there's I have no problems with it so if you just want to use that that's great the next thing here is the time shift so the data is in GMT if you do want to convert it into your own time zone then just shift this bar here accordingly for example I'm in Hawaii so that's gmt minus 10 so you just set that there but for this example and then if you click on ok then it's going to shift the data and it's going to do a little bit of processing so don't worry about that but I'm just going to cancel that so it's going to set it back to gmt which is zero so right here it shows the available data that's actually on your computer right now so i updated the one minute history to august which is the most recent right now but if we go back to another pair let's take the euro for example that was updated back in me so that's something that I would need to update um this bar here shows tick history if you have take history available or if you're subscribed to the service and they offered take history then that would show here also but in most cases there's going to be no data and one minute history is perfect for anybody because most people are going to be trading tick or like scalping so that's great if you need to update it just highlight the pair that you want to update click update from server take the defaults update and then it's going to do its thing for a minute okay so the data has been updated from the server as you can see now its current to august 31st which is great if you have your own files maybe from a different data provider you can upload them here also they just need to be an ASCII format CSV or text or metatrader4 history format so you can upload that there if you want to export this out to excel or something so that you can do some other types of data crunching you can export it there but for the most part that's all you need one thing to mention also is that for accessory to has a subscription service so this data is free but if you want to have updated versions from specific different specific brokers like gft I don't know which ones are actually available but for example if it was gft then you can download the data from gft etc um I've never had the need to do that but it may be helpful to you so that's a monthly subscription service from a Forex tester after you load the data then you want to generate ticks so in order to generate tix you just click here to check the pair that you want to generate tix for and what generating tix does is it loads it takes the data that you downloaded and it loads it into the forex tester testing mode so that you can actually use it to test with um if you want to test multiple pairs at the same time maybe you're doing some sort of a correlation strategy or something you can you can check multiple pairs and it will generally tix for all those pairs just be sure that your symbol properties is set up correctly otherwise you might be trading 100k lots on one pair and thousand unit lots on another pair but for most people you can just use one pair at a time so I'm just going to generate tix for the euro US dollar it's going to give you the screen just take the defaults they generate okay after that's generated that window will disappear so we'll just click on exit and then now that everything's set up let's go back to testing mode and your screen is going to blank out don't worry about that when you pull down this menu here you're going to get the pairs that you generated text for in this case just the euro US dollar so you can open that here one thing to note is that you can also open multiple windows at the same time so let's do another one and this is really useful because let's say that you have a strategy that generates signals on a daily chart so we'll set this one up as a daily and then on this one we're going to set it up as the 15-minute maybe use the 15-minute as a way to fine-tune your entry so that's how you would watch them at the same time then you just click on start test I'm sorry then you would add your indicators here whatever indicators you're using let's just use a random one like this you'll apply it and then the indicators added there and then you would click on start test and for your first test you can start testing from the first date arranged if you already have a test going you exit for X tester and you come back in and you want to continue the test and you can this button will be available where you can continue the test but this is our first test so we're going to just start testing you can save the project if you want to but I'm not going to save it right now and there you go so that's how you get started I hope that helps and thanks for watching you
