MT5 Backtesting Studio

Build a repeatable research process

Create and save named strategies with rules, checklists, notes, and practice

trade defaults. Optional Test Plans add controlled dates, session windows,

costs, deterministic random selection, blind testing, and completion targets.

The optional Journal records session hypotheses, mistakes, lessons, adherence,

trade notes, and setup tags.

Simple Replay remains available without creating a Test Plan or Journal entry.

Keep compatible MT5 indicators in your replay

Use standard MT5 indicators and compatible custom indicators on the replay

charts, so an indicator-based strategy can be practised in the platform where

it is normally viewed. Compatible indicators that calculate from the active

chart symbol can recalculate as replay advances across synchronized

timeframes.

Current validation covers a standard moving average and two parameterized

custom indicators on M1, M5, M15, and H1 through Play, forward navigation,

backward rebuild, chart restoration, and cleanup. Indicators that hard-code a

different symbol, intentionally read unrevealed source history, depend on live

account state, or require unavailable market depth may not be replay-safe.

Fit the workspace to your chart setup

• Explicit Dark and Light themes, with Dark as the clean-install default.
• Optional Broker, UTC, New York, London, Tokyo, or Sydney display times.
• Synchronized replay across selected chart timeframes.
• Adjustable replay-pane height and five workspace text sizes.
• Scrollable Settings and Analytics workspaces for shorter charts.
• Local session recovery after an interruption when ownership and history checks pass.

The product does not recolor your chart. It manages only its prefixed objects,

owned replay symbols, and files inside the terminal sandbox.

Data and safety

MT5 Backtesting Studio does not place, modify, or close broker orders. It has no

DLL, network, telemetry, external licensing, or personal-data collection path.

Sessions, analytics, settings, exports, and history cache files remain inside

the MetaTrader 5 file sandbox.

Important limitations

- Results are simulated and are not live performance.

- Replay quality and available dates depend on broker-provided history.

- MetaTrader 5 does not identify a broker's historical daylight-saving-time

  policy. Leave timezone conversion Off when the broker's historical schedule

  is unknown.

- The simulator supports one net practice position. It does not provide

  hedging, arbitrary scaling, multiple concurrent parent orders, or

  programmable trailing stops.

Getting started

1. Open a broker symbol with the recorded history you want to practise.
2. Attach MT5 Backtesting Studio to the source chart.
3. Choose a past date, strategy, and replay mode.
4. Select **Start Replay** and use the lower control pane.

Support is provided through the MQL5 product comments and MQL5 messaging.
