I am currently using Amibroker, but I had problems with my code and after "getting help" from the creator of AB, my strategy still is not working. So I am looking for other programs. I have forex historical data in ASCII format and I want to backtest on this data. I cannot do this with Tradestation 7 since it does not support forex nor importing ASCII data. What programs allow this feature that will work well with forex ASCII data? Thanks for help.
I haven't done much futures backtesting with it but Wealth-Lab is free for thirty days and is almost fully functional in trial mode. It will allow you to load ASCII files and test with them. Very powerful and easy to use IMO. http://www.wealth-lab.com/cgi-bin/WealthLab.DLL/getpage?page=WLD2.htm
