Hi

is it possible to backtest existing mt4/5 EA with strategy quant? suppose I can put my existing EA (not produced by strategy quant) and then give different settings to strategy quant or strategy quant try different settings by itself and return the result?

Yes, basically you can test your strategy using our software StrategyQuant X. Please be aware you cannot directly import your indicators code into StrategyQuant but you can re-build your strategy with its rules using our AlgoWizard module.

Once you re-build your strategy using AlgoWizard module included in StrategyQuant X you will be able to backtest, improve and optimize your strategy. If you strategy uses additional custom indicators those can be added as well but require some additional coding or at least indicator data directly imported. For this we have some tutorials and guidance as well.

Risk Disclosure:
Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure:
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
