Build a strategy visually before you trade. Choose indicators, operators, and values for entry and exit rulesβ€”no code required. Combine conditions with ALL or ANY, validate the setup, then run it on historical data and inspect the risk evidence. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose a template or build custom entry and exit rules visually 2. Select a crypto, stock, ETF, forex, futures, or index market 3. Set capital, position size, commission, slippage, stop loss, and take profit 4. Run the backtest and review the evidence READ MORE THAN THE RETURN β€’ Compare profit, drawdown, win rate, profit factor, and trade count β€’ Inspect entry and exit markers directly on the chart β€’ Review individual trades instead of relying on one headline number β€’ Save results so you can compare each iteration PAPER CHECKS WITHOUT REAL MONEY Sign in and refresh manually to observe a locked strategy on newly closed candles. Paper does not submit exchange orders; automatic monitoring is not enabled. YOUR BINANCE FUTURES DEMO Connect your own Binance Futures Demo account with your Demo API credentials to place manual orders using demo funds. Review and explicitly confirm before submission. No real funds or automatic trading. BUILT FOR A REPEATABLE PROCESS Backtest is for traders who want a clearer loop: form a hypothesis, test it, inspect the risk, refine the rules, and test again. IMPORTANT RISK NOTE Backtest is not a broker, does not place real-money trades, and does not provide financial advice. Results are hypothetical and can be affected by data quality, assumptions, fees, slippage, and market conditions. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Start with a preset and run your first backtest. Use the Apple Watch app and complications to check recent results and paper-bot signals from your wrist, with privacy controls for sensitive values.
