Think that after all these years I have finally cracked forex trading, I’ve back tested using fxcms tradestation II
But what I would really like is something that will playback the past as it happened.
For example I could go back to 2015 on the daily chart and every one minute a new candle is generated.
Is there anything out there fitting my description that is preferably free?
Trading Station 2 has a feature called “Simulation Mode” that will play back historical price, and best of all it’s free . At the top of the platform and select System > Simulation Mode > New. You will then have to enter various parameters such as account balance, currency, instruments, etc.
Once you have entered all your parameters, you can then play, pause, speed up and slow down the feed. In addition, you have a variety of reporting and statistics within the program.
