Backtesting without the wishful thinking

Get a real backtest.
No nonsense results.

Describe a strategy in plain English. Backtestify replays it on real market candles and hands back an honest verdict — plus a TradingView strategy you can load.

  • Your rules, tested exactly as written
  • Every timeframe from 1 minute to 1 week
  • Improvement search finds the most profitable version of your strategy — up to 2–3× win rate where the data supports it
  • Judged on candles the search never saw

Free to start. Your first report is a full Pro report.

The improved version must stay profitable on candles the search never saw, or Backtestify reports that no profitable improvement was found. Every outcome is measured, never promised.

Measured, not marketed

What this engine has actually run

How it works

Three steps

1 · Describe your strategy

Plain English. We turn it into an exact rule set — nothing is filled in for you.

2 · We replay it honestly

Real candles, signals confirmed on the close, fills at the next open, costs both sides.

3 · You get a verdict

Win rate, drawdown, buy-and-hold beside your return, and a TradingView strategy.

Inside the report

Everything you need to judge a strategy

Six panels, measured from the same run. Where a number cannot be measured honestly, the report says so instead of guessing.

The verdict

One plain sentence on whether the rules held up, with the sample size it rests on.

Equity and buy-and-hold

Your curve next to simply holding the asset over the same window.

Timeframe comparison

Identical rules, identical window, every timeframe you selected, ranked.

Risk and drawdown

Worst peak-to-trough, losing streaks and a Monte Carlo view of the range.

Robustness

Held out candles the search never saw, plus regime and signal-delay checks.

TradingView export

Pine v6 generated from the rules that were actually executed, not a rewrite.

Already have a strategy?

Paste your current rules. Backtestify tests the original exactly as written first, then searches variations against that same baseline and keeps the most profitable one — or reports that no profitable improvement was found.

FAQ

Straight answers

Where does the market data come from?

Public spot market candles from major exchange REST endpoints. Every report names the exchange, the symbol, the candle count and the exact window it used, and incomplete candles are excluded.

Do you invent rules I did not write?

No. Backtest mode tests exactly what you describe. If you give no stop or target, the report says none was given and shows how the position was sized instead — nothing is filled in for you.

How can the improvement search be trusted?

It only searches the training window. The winner is frozen and then measured once on candles the search never saw, and both numbers are shown side by side.

Will the same description give the same result twice?

Yes. Parsing is cached by a normalised prompt hash and windows snap to completed UTC days, so a repeated run on the same day reproduces the same rules, numbers and text.

What do I actually get to export?

A TradingView Pine v6 strategy generated from the executed rule set, with the same entries, exits and costs used in the report.

Is this financial advice?

No. Backtestify is a research tool. Results are historical simulations, they are hypothetical, and past performance never guarantees future results.
