Backtesting Expert Advisors

[AfroButterfly]

Hello, as I've delved deeper into expert advisior creation, I feel I have been limited to live trading/forward testing.

I began searching for backtesting software and came across items like Soft4x, but wanted to ask the community in general if there is a commonly utilized software for being able to utilize all of the preprinted chart price action and to run tests on expert advisor trades retroactively?

What is the market standard?

For automated backtesting, the market standard is MetaTrader 5, where you can test EAs on real ticks data.

You can try Blueshift by Quantra [URL deleted]. It is a backtesting and research + live trading platform.
