Backtesting
TradeServer Cloud has a robust built-in backtesting engine. This tool allows you to seamlessly test your trade bot script’s performance against historical market data on specific exchanges. Although this testing method is not infallible, it’s a great tool to help eliminate bugs and improve performance.
Running a backtest
Depending on your plan type you will be able to run backtests from 1, 6, or 12 month depths. If you’re running our standalone Enterprise version it will differ depending on hardware limitations.
- Open Web Editor
- Open trade bot
- Configure your trade bot’s settings from the Settings panel
- Click “Backtest” in the toolbar
