Backtest

Backtest your strategy.

Don't trade on instinct. Use bar-by-bar replay of real market history to review every trade, validate your strategy at no cost, skip the risk of trial and error on a live account, and build your edge with composure.

Trading page mid-backtest: take-profit, entry and stop-loss levels drawn on the chart, the order panel showing size and margin, and one open position below.

Blind test

Blind-test your judgment.

Remove hindsight bias. The instrument is drawn at random, the calendar is shifted and the prices rescaled, so your strategy meets a market you have never seen — and memory cannot inflate your confidence.

Review

Mistakes leave a trail.

Summarises the core metrics and charts them: P&L curve, long versus short, performance by session, plus win rate, profit factor and the distribution of individual trades. Every fill is broken down objectively, so the habits and mistakes you cannot see surface — find the weak spot, then refine the strategy.
