What is the best way to scroll forward in time?

Say I want to trade the london open on a small timeframe everyday. I tried to increase the speed in the testing tool bar but even then I could take a small nap until the next day arrives on the chart. I also tried to increase the package size but forextester is still processing all the ticks and the next day arrives not much faster.

Is there a better way to scroll in time?

(I see that it gets much faster when I scroll backwards in time. But this way I have to create my trading history manually)

Hello,

You can try StartTest -> Define first date to start but in this case all previous trading history will be lost.

Also you can develp a little automatic strategy that will allow you to scroll the time to some value automatically. For this purpose you can use "Pause" and "Resume" functions from our API. Let me know if you do not know programming and we'll try to find a programmer for you.
