ChartLabs
ChartLabs is manual backtesting software for traders who want to know if their strategy works before they risk real money. You trade through historical charts the same way you'd trade live - placing orders, managing positions, making decisions in real time.
We source tick data from Dukascopy and clean it before you ever see it - removing spikes, gaps, and outliers that make backtests unreliable. Most platforms skip this. We don't.
Markets: forex, indices, crypto, and commodities. Up to 20 years of history.
Analytics: profit factor, max drawdown, Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, Monte Carlo simulation, strategy correlation. The stuff professional traders actually look at.
Multi-screen charting, trade tagging, chart snapshots on every trade, training and verification sessions, drawing tools, indicators, keyboard shortcuts.
One plan. Everything included. Free trial, no credit card required.

Simula
Simula is a no-code tool for backtesting, strategy validation and execution. Built for traders, not programmers.
Go from first idea to execution in one place; for stocks, forex, commodities or crypto in a visual builder where you see the exact rules, or describe your idea in plain English and let the builder fill it in. The same strategy always gives the same result. Backtest down to 1-minute candles, up to 250,000 candles per test, then stress-test with Monte Carlo simulation, walk-forward analysis and parameter optimization. A built-in AI chat explains your results in plain language.
When your strategy is ready, turn on live alerts for Telegram, Discord, and Slack. Simula checks your strategy at every candle close with the same engine as your backtest, so each alert follows the rules you tested. Place trades with your own broker, Simula never trades for you. Trade on Evidence, not Hope.

AniQuant
AniQuant is a Windows desktop application for researching, generating, backtesting and validating systematic trading strategies with users’ historical market data. Strategies can be created through exhaustive, random or genetic searches and assessed using technical indicators, candlestick patterns, the AQ strategy language and CPU/GPU-assisted parameter sweeps. Validation tools include walk-forward and out-of-sample tests, Monte Carlo simulation, overfitting metrics, survival tests, market-regime analysis and portfolio risk analysis. Strategies can be exported as code for TradeStation/MultiCharts, AmiBroker, MetaTrader 5, ProRealTime, TradingView and NinjaTrader 8. It is designed for independent and professional traders and quantitative researchers testing strategies before deployment. The software runs locally on Windows; US-stock research requires a separate market-data subscription. A 14-day trial is available.
