How to backtest Signals with different Risk to reward ratioHello traders , this is my very first video on this platform, so please bear with me as I plan to make better content in the future.
In this video, I aim to show you how to test your trading signals using various risk-to-reward ratios. The goal is to identify the most suitable ratio for your signals and create a profitable strategy.
What's crucial in strategy development is effective risk management and selecting the right risk-to-reward ratio. You might have a signal that performs poorly at a 1:1 ratio but becomes profitable at a 3:1 ratio. I'll explain how to use this indicator and why it can be highly beneficial for your trading.
In this section of the video, I'm demonstrating how to apply this method to internal signals like RSI, moving averages, and Supertrend.
Additionally, I'm planning to create another video to teach you how to backtest your own external signals.
Please let me know if this is something you'd like to learn more about.

How To Backtest Further In The Past On Low TimeframesQuick video to show this little trick using the Replay mode that allows us to load more historical bars than real time, and thus get a better picture at how a strategy can perform over time.
The Strategy Tester re-calculate the results everytime we load new bars, as the indicator strategy is correctly applied to these new bars.
I got the confirmation from the awesome TradingView Support Team that the extra data that you get this way is real and relevant, and can be used to test your strategies.
