Curtain

Description

Follow my cTrader Telegram group at https://t.me/cTraderCommunity; it's a new community but it will grow fast, plus everyone can talk about cTrader indicators and algorithm without restrictions, though it is not allowed to spam commercial indicators to sell them. There's also a Discord Server now @ https://discord.gg/5GAPMtp

This is the curtain of mistery! Use this tool if you want to backtest something, it will hide every bar after the vertical line so you can scroll the chart freely to take note of support, resistances and other trady thingies.

For any bug report or suggestion contact me by following the group linked above or by commenting below
