At least Two Years' Worth of Backtesting
Hi,
It seems that backtesting goes back to 10/13/2015. In order to have confidence in a strategy, I would love to be able to test it on at least 2 years of data. Five years is more than enough and it would be great to have that option; this should satisfy the backtesting demands of 99% of all algoTraders.
Thanks

PTMC Support 01.08.2016Hello, Williams Chris!
You can use of vendor and instrument where the story has over a long period.
For example, on PT3 server(AXP:DX):
This instrument has a history over a large period. And this instrument can be traded in AlgoStudio.
Trade over a long period of time in AlgoStudio depends on what amount of history available via the API.
Various vendor provide different depths of history.
