Well.
So, I will explain everything about this software step by step.

This software was created by Terranin (Koshelev M.A.). It is Russian name but I think that he is Canadian (he posted on some forum that he is from Canada). This software is in English language and help file (readme.doc) in Russian. Terranin created this tester for himself and decided to publish it in Poul's forum. It is the second version (and not last one).

Why we need this software?
Because we are able to test our EAs in Metatrader's tester. We know about the strategy tester in MetaTrader: not so good as we want but anyway we are using it. But we can not backtest our trading strategies and indicators: we need to spend a lot of time to test it on demo.

So now we have an other tester and we may test all our systems. It is tester of the trading strategies and indicators. In other words we may backtest our manual trading strategies and our indicators on the historical data usig this trading simulator with calculation of the profit and with everything.


Dear sir,
I have tried to use forex tester, but did'nt succesfull yet.
Please explain, why to use this software with historical data.
The procedur that i did:
- Install software and run it
- download data from alpari website (in metastock format & M1 timeframe).
- Import data that i was download
- click option - server setting: connect to historical data
- Click "Connect"

But after i did all above, my chart platform i still blank (NO DATA)

So please advise me with detail correction of my procedure.

Best regards & thanks very much
