Hi all,
I've recently found ProbackTest as part of the Advanced Charts at IgMarkets.
I'm trying to set up a simple first demo: "Buy Long & Short S&P 500 mini at OPEN (09:30), SELL (EXIT) at CLOSE (16:00)"
These will set up using iGMarkets guaranteed stop (3,5 points away from buying).
Their spread is 0,5, i.e. 0,25 off the market when buying and 0,25 off the market when selling.
There is an extra fee for guaranteed stop is 0,4 points.
How could I set this up?
(On a side note I tried this with data from Yahoo using my MySQL and a simple SQL syntax. It was profitable, especially in 2008. But the open & close figures Yahoo had didn't match up with IT Markets which I suppose are the basis of IgMarkets SPX500 pricing.
Does anyone know how I could export minute-by-minute open, high, low, close for SPX500 going back a few years?)
Thanks in advance for any help on this.
Matti
