## Key Facts

## What Backtrex Does

Backtrex compresses 3-5 years of manual strategy testing into minutes. Traders work directly on a chart: they drop indicators on it and describe, in plain language, the conditions that trigger their trades. Those strategies then run against minute-level historical data from Dukascopy (Swiss bank). Results include equity curves, drawdown analysis, win rates, and risk metrics. Validated strategies export to Pine Script (TradingView) or MQL5 (MetaTrader) with anti-repainting guarantees.

## Core Features

- Chart-First Strategy Builder: indicators are placed on the chart, and a side panel lists the entry and exit conditions in readable sentences. Conditions combine with AND within a scenario and OR between scenarios, each with its own timeframe. No coding required.
- Rule Deduction From Trades: instead of writing rules, a trader can draw 3 reference trades on the chart. Backtrex analyses what they have in common at entry and suggests the matching conditions, which the trader accepts or discards.
- 61 Indicators: technical (RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, moving averages), Smart Money Concepts (Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, BOS/CHoCH, Liquidity Sweeps), candlestick and chart patterns, market structure, and session filters.
- Instant Backtesting: Full backtest on 10 years of M1 data in under 30 seconds. Supports 17 assets (Forex, indices, commodities, crypto) across 6 timeframes (M1 to D1).
- Anti-Repainting Engine: Uses only confirmed bar data (close[1]) to prevent false signals. Ensures backtest results match live trading conditions.
- Code Export: One-click export to Pine Script v5 (TradingView) with less than 2% divergence guarantee. MQL5 export coming soon.
- Smart Money Concepts (SMC/ICT): Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Break of Structure, Change of Character, and Liquidity Sweeps are available as standalone signals, drawn on the chart and usable as conditions.
- Leaderboard: Community-driven strategy rankings based on verified backtest performance.
