20 + Data Feeds and 10 + Brokers

Dynamic Portfolio Backtesting

Proper backtesting helps you determine if your strategies will make or lose money. Dynamic portfolio backtesting is capable of applying your strategy to many symbols on a bar-by-bar basis, determining which trade is the optimal one at any given time. It can be an invaluable tool during technical analysis and strategy development.

EasyLanguage Support

EasyLanguage has been in development for over 20 years, so it has one of the largest libraries of trading ideas already implemented. It is so useful to traders, it is considered the industry-standard programming language. In addition to hundreds of studies that come with MultiCharts, you can create your own, change existing ones or import any EL code that you can find.

Interactive Performance Reporting

It is very important to accurately see how you are doing. The performance report has more than 200 performance measures, including various metrics, ratios, and interactive performance charts. The report can also monitor real-time trading, since it recalculates on every new order that has been placed.

Genetic Strategy Optimization

Some traders find optimization very useful, because it saves a lot of time searching for optimal inputs for a particular strategy. Genetic optimization employs a complex algorithm that tests possible inputs in a way that mimics biological evolution. This approach is a lot faster than trying every possible combination, and it also helps avoid outliers and curve-fitting.

Scan the Market

When you are looking for opportunities, the Market Scanner can be an invaluable tool. You can instantly sort up to 5000 instruments to find ones that meet a certain criteria, apply indicators to alert yourself when a condition occurs, and open charts of the necessary symbols for a more detailed look.

Replay Market Data

Trading the markets is all about predicting where the price will go next. A good way to practice is to apply your price-predicting skills to historical data. Market Data Replay allows you start playback at any point in the past, speed up or slow down replay speed, and even playback several instruments at once.

Hundreds of Strategies and Indicators

We have collected the most popular indicators and strategies we could find, and included them in the platform for free, so you don’t have to look for them. All you need to do is right-click on the chart, and they are at your fingertips. Remember, you can always add more, or write your own in addition to existing ones.
