coding over weekend

[shonick]

I have time over weekend, so I would like to do some coding. But the market is offline. and there is no tick, so the start() is not running.

 

How can I write code and test it on the current available data when it is not getting any new tick? I just want to draw something on the current chart.

 

Thank you

You can do some testing in the Strategy Tester

Thank you. It works

I can also recommend the following which I have used extensively when testing over weekends. Makes working much easier.
