  1. If anyone is familiar with this backtester could they share their pearls of wisdom. I think it uses some form of easy language, if you've used it you will know I guess. Basically, I want to say : If Close[0] < Average[50](close) ......Buy when the price drops by 35 pips I'm sort of half there as you can see. Any help would be much appreciated, this stuff can be very tedious if it's not going your way.
  2. Cheers Blowfish, It doesn't seem to recognise Starting Price. Also what is Var? I'll keep trying
  3. Thanks for help everyone. Yeah the backtester is through IG. So how would you say : sell at market when the price has dropped 35 points? If I get a rough idea I can then try and feed this into the system.
  4. I'm trying to write something in Easy Language (I think) on the IG Markets advanced chart facility. It has stuff like: IF CLOSE[0] < CLOSE[2] THEN BUY 10%CAPITAL AT MARKET ENDIF I think that's easy language right? I'm writing it myself and also using predetermined values. Thanks
  5. Hey everyone, I've written a very basic strategy using IG Market's backtester builder. I'm trying to write something more sophisticated, but don't fully understand the language yet. So, if I give you a summary of my strategy would it be possible to give me the inputs? Once I know the basic coding I can then tweak the system Statements I would like to include: - If price is below moving average 50 then buy 2 lots in 4 bars time (if this bar's close is greater than the bar 4 time frames ago). - If price is below moving average 50 then buy 2 lots when the price drops by 35 pips. Thanks to anyone who can help, much appreciated.
