Back Testing
What is Back testing
  • OT allows you to test the effectiveness of your trading strategies on your portfolio or individual shares
  • You can access this via selecting File, then reports
  • There are many options available and we suggest you consult the online manual for more details
  • The following example shows BHP and all the strategies available to this user (in this case the user has additional add in modules beyond the standard system)
  • It shows over the back test period the number of trades and outcomes in total by by individual strategy
  • As you know all strategies can be adjusted by the user and may result in better outcomes
  • Additional reports can be selected to allow you to drill down to see each transaction
