Find out if it was luck.

Make money on 17 trades and it could easily be luck. Every run shows whether you have enough trades to call it skill, and if you don’t, how to get more.

The backtest result: +$718.01, up 0.7%, on 17 trades after $218.28 in costs. Under it: 17 trades is too few to tell skill from luck. It takes at least 30, so try a longer date range or a shorter timeframe.The backtest result: +$718.01, up 0.7%, on 17 trades after $218.28 in costs.

Questions

What can I paste?

A strategy written for TraderPier in TypeScript. Open a built-in strategy in the Code Editor to see how one is written.

Do I need an account?

No. Without one you get one backtest a day, and nothing is saved. A free account backtests 30 days and saves your runs.

Can I test more than one setting?

Yes, on a paid plan. Optimize settings tests every variation at once and checks the best one on dates it wasn’t tuned on. More on the backtesting page.

Test it before you trade it.

One backtest a day without an account.
