Enable "offline" Backtesting
25 Jan 2017, 17:54


In order to be able to backtest cBots while not being connected to the internet and/or the Sportware Server the abillity to backtest "offline" would be highly appreciated.
Like a local "offline" Backtesting Account with the option to define initial funds.

Thanks Jimmy, I realy feel that this is a major setback in productivity!
Perhaps you could make some more noise in the forum to mobilize more folks to vote this up?!
Cheers

BackTesting Offline

Is this stupid easy functionality still not available in 2020? How difficult can it be? You can have the data offline but not the TESTING of that data?  Maybe they shouldn't rap their small heads around the account issue. What the hell is wrong with these folks? I'm a dev and this should not be that difficult to do.

For me as a coder is this important, too

I have made this suggestion myself and can only agree with this earlier post. Please implement!
