Where to Start?

[cwidene]

I had someone design a strategy for me that I use on Ninja. It is basically a trend following system for ES that is always active (either short or long, never flat) What I want to do based on the one simply signal is to backtest it and see results on different time frames (2500 ticks and daily close) However, I have no idea how to do this not where to begin. Can someone assist me in getting this done?

After reading this, I guess I mispoke. I have the Indicators determined and set on Ninja. So, I assume the first step is to have someone make the "strategy" based on the buy/sell signals...then I can backtest it correct?

Correct, you need to have the strategy automated before you can backtest it in the Strategy Analyzer.
