Hello,
Do we have any members who have backtested strategies for the CFD market?
i.e - lets assume an individual wanted to to gain exposure to mid/long term
trendfollowing across a basket of diversified products: indices, metals, agri, interest rates and FX. He cant enter the futures market due to smaller capital, and therefore
looks at the CFD makert as way to trade the strategy through "downscaling".
Instead of trading 2 crude futures with £1 million, i ll trade 8 crude CFDs with £100k for instance.
Do we have any members that have backtested strategies using proffesional backtesting software such as Wealth-Lab / Trading Blox etc..?
I am assuming the process would involve uploading a database of CFD margins
and trading costs etc .. for each asset, though a CFD broker's dealing guide etc.
Does any1 have experience in this field?
Any thoughts appreciated
