Backtest several currency pairs under one project in FT 3

#1 Postby Robert100L » Thu Apr 06, 2017 12:54 pm

Hi,
Is it possible to backtest different currency pairs under one project, I mean...if I am testing NZDUSD in one project ...is it possible to add another pair, for example EURUSD under the same project(removing NZDUSD pair) and continue backtesting.
I have backtested 50 trades in NZDUSD and want to backtest another 50 using another currency pair under same project and see how my strategy performs overall....
Thx.

Hello,

You need to create a project for two pairs at the same time - NZDUSD and EURUSD.

Just activate both these pairs when creating a new project.

Then you can test NZDUSD pair only, place orders for this pair etc.
And when you want to switch to the EURUSD pair you just need to close NZDUSD chart and open EURUSD chart via File -> Add New Chart menu and continue your testing.
