I would like the ability to trade several pairs at once,
or atleast 2 pairs,
this would be great for testing hedging strategies

Hello,

You can do it in Forex Tester 2. You just need to generate ticks for 2 pairs, see more details here: http://forextester.com/ticks.html

Thanks I tryed that, I followed the instructions from the webpage and generated ticks for EUR/USD and USD/CHF together, but when I start the testing
there is only data in EUR/USD and USD/CHF is blanc with the text "no data Start new test" in the midle of the chart, what am I doing wrong?

Hello,

Did you press "Start test" button? Maybe you just see the results of the previous test

Hello,

no I can see the bars moving in the eur/usd window,
yes I did press start button, sorry for the big image,
only 1 chart is running, I see no data in the usd/chf chart,
and I did generate ticks for both pairs.
maybe Im missing something?

[FT Support]

Can you see usd/chf data for this period in History Mode?

[Chris]

no if I switch to history mode I don't even see the the usd/chf chart,

[FT Support]

ok, in this case you need to:

1) Open Data Center
2) Add usdchf symbol
3) import data (http://forextester.com/import.html)
4) re-generate ticks (http://forextester.com/ticks.html) in "generate ticks" dialog check both symbols.

Hello Chris,

Does EURUSD chart disappear in History Mode or in Testing Mode?

If it disappeared in Testing Mode only then please re-generate ticks and check both pairs in "generate ticks" dialog like it is shown on the screenshot.

[Chris]

I did exactly what you describe in the pic,
when I am in testing mode I see both charts, EUR/USD and USD/CHF
but only data (bars) in EUR/USD.
when I go back and generate tick again as you described here and then again go back to testing mode,
it's still the same, I only see bars in the EUR/USD chart, and the USD/CHF is empty.
if I go back to history mode from testing mode I don't see the USD/CHF chart. I did as in the pic several times.
it's wierd it doesnt work for me?
I have win xp pro sp3
I have some screenshots so you can se exactly what I do and in what order,
sorry for the big size, I will delete the pics after you viewed it.



this is the first step,
please tell me if I do something wrong.

[Chris]

step2

[Chris]

step3

[Chris]

step4, as you can see nothing in the USD/CHF chart?
you can also see the test has been running cus there is bars in the EUR/USD chart, please go to page 2 for the final screenshot

[Chris]

step5 then back to history mode, no USD/CHF chart?
if I repeat the procedure it's still the same,
don't know what I am doing wrong?

Hi, seems like I have a similar problem as Chris.

I updated data of 2 pairs from the server.
I generated tick data for both pairs.
In history mode I can see two charts.
In testing mode only one chart shows bars, the other chart shows "no data"\

What should I do?

[FT Support]

Hello,

It is ok that Forex Tester shows “No Data” in testing mode. It is just the result of the previous test but if you did not do any test before on some currency pairs it will show “No Data”.
You just need to start a new test to replace “No Data” message with quots.
