Default Back Testing intra day FX strategy
Hi

I was wondering if there is any software (free) available that I could use to quickly and easily backtest a simple intra day strategy based on three technical indicators, namely MA, MACD and directional Indicator.

I have the data (5min bars) but am no good at programming.

Any help aprreciated

Thanks

Hi timaru

Try http://www.fxengines.com

They have DMI/ADX, MAs, MACD, RSI, STOCHS, etc.

It's a good site - you will learn a lot from your first 100 backtests!
