Backtesting using market replay

12-21-2009, 10:21 AM

Hi guys,

Merry Christmas to you all.

Quick question. If I backtest a strategy using market replay data can I use marketable limit orders?

Thanks

ScoobyStoo, I believe that is indeed possible. The simulation engine is pretty flexible with regard to order types.

Brilliant.

Do you have the logic of the backtest engine documented anywhere?

ScoobyStoo, you can take a look at the code for the fill logic at My Docs/NT 6.5/custom/type/@DefaultFillType.cs and /@LiberalFillType.cs.
