Backtesting

Back test your strategies with historical price data on the FOREX.com platforms, as well as both MT4 and MT5 .

The backtest functionality offered by FOREX.com has inherent limitations that may cause the actual percentage gains/loss experienced by investors to be materially different than the percentage gain/losses presented on the FOREX.com backtested results. The price feed which is used to perform back test results is a composite feed provided by FOREX.com, which may vary from the tradable price feed relative to your account. The backtested results do not factor in additional trading costs such as commissions. See the full disclaimer for more information about the limitations of relying on hypothetical results.

*FOREX.com’s demo account is a core element of our educational effort. A demo account is intended to familiarize you with the tools and features of FOREX.com's trading platforms and to facilitate the testing of trading strategies in a risk-free environment using virtual funds. Results achieved on the FOREX.com demo account are hypothetical and no representation is made that any account will or is likely to achieve actual profits or losses similar to those achieved in the demo account. Conditions in the demo account cannot always reasonably reflect all of the market conditions that may affect pricing, execution and margin requirements in a live trading environment. Margin and leverage settings by product and account may vary from time to time between your demo account and a live account due to live account settings changes imposed by FOREX.com resulting from market volatility and other factors. Rollover/financing charges are not simulated in the demo environments. The pricing available is the same pricing available to FOREX.com account holders. Pricing for managed accounts and accounts referred by an Introducing Broker may differ.
