What's New

M3 (3 minutes) joins the available timeframes, between M1 and M5. It works everywhere: as a backtest base timeframe, as a condition timeframe, as a chart timeframe, and in the Pine Script export to TradingView.

M3 fills a real gap for scalping: M1 is often too noisy to give a reliable signal, M5 too slow for a precise entry. History goes back as far as it does on every other timeframe — up to 10 years.

The Strategy Builder has been rebuilt around the chart. No more wiring blocks on a canvas: you drop your indicators on the chart, and the panel on the right lists, in plain language, the conditions that open and close your trades.

A condition takes three forms: a comparison (RSI < 30), a crossover (EMA 20 crosses above EMA 50) or a standalone signal (Order Block, CHoCH, Kill Zone). They combine with AND inside a scenario and OR between scenarios, each with its own timeframe and candle window.

New: rule deduction from your trades. Place three reference trades on the chart, and Backtrex analyses what they have in common to suggest the matching conditions. Stop Loss and Take Profit can be derived from the levels you draw, too.

Full Smart Money Concepts (SMC/ICT) block library: Swing Points, BOS/CHoCH, Market Structure Trend, Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Supply/Demand Zones, Equal Highs/Lows, Liquidity Sweep, Kill Zones, and Economic Calendar filtering. Pine Script v5 export with less than 2% divergence guarantee. Strategy scoring engine (0-100 composite score across 6 dimensions) and public leaderboard with per-asset-class rankings.

Run backtests on multi-year datasets in under 30 seconds. The results dashboard includes key performance metrics (Total Return, Sharpe Ratio, Max Drawdown, Win Rate, Profit Factor), an equity curve visualization, a trade-by-trade list, monthly returns heatmap, and CSV export. Save and compare backtests, with built-in anti-repainting enforcement using confirmed bar data only.

First version of the visual strategy builder: strategies were composed of blocks wired together on a canvas. Indicator blocks (MA, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, Stochastic, ATR, ADX), logic blocks (comparisons, crossovers, range checks) and action blocks (entry, exit, stop-loss, take-profit), with multi-timeframe per indicator, candlestick patterns, divergence detection, keyboard shortcuts and undo/redo.

This model was replaced in July 2026 by the chart-first Builder.

Multi-asset OHLCV data infrastructure is live. Backtrex now supports 16 assets across forex, commodities, indices, and crypto with 6 timeframes (M1, M5, M15, H1, H4, D1). Data is sourced from Dukascopy for historical seed and OANDA v20 for daily sync, with TimescaleDB materialized views for fast aggregation.
