Backtest your trading strategy using more than 20 years of historical market data — completely free.

We’re excited to introduce Myfxbook Backtest, a new way to backtest trading strategies, replay historical markets and analyze your results directly on Myfxbook:

With access to hundreds of symbols, more than 20 years of historical data and data down to the 1-minute timeframe, you can go back in time and test your trading ideas across different markets and market conditions.

And there’s no subscription required.

Myfxbook Backtest is completely free. No fine print.

What Is Forex Backtesting?

Forex backtesting is the process of testing a trading strategy using historical market data.

Instead of waiting weeks or months to see how a strategy behaves in live markets, you can go back to previous market conditions and see how your approach would have performed.

Backtesting can help you answer questions such as:

• How does my strategy perform in trending markets?
• What happens during periods of high volatility?
• Does the setup work across different currency pairs?
• How frequently does the setup appear?
• How does performance change across different timeframes?

With market replay, you can take this a step further by moving through historical price action as it happened, rather than simply looking at a completed chart.

Replay More Than 20 Years of Market History

A backtest is only as useful as the historical data available to test against.

Myfxbook Backtest gives you access to more than 20 years of historical market data, including 1-minute price data.

That means you can replay and study markets across very different conditions rather than testing a strategy against only a few recent months.

From major market events and periods of extreme volatility to quieter trading environments, you can see how your strategy would have behaved across years of historical price action.

Backtest Hundreds of Symbols

Your strategy might perform well on EUR/USD — but what about GBP/USD, USD/JPY, gold or another market?

Myfxbook Backtest lets you test and replay hundreds of symbols, making it easier to compare the same trading idea across different instruments.

Instead of being limited to a small number of markets, you can explore where a strategy works, where it struggles and how its behavior changes from one symbol to another.

Multi-Chart and Synchronized Market Replay

Trading decisions are rarely based on a single chart.

You might identify the overall trend on a higher timeframe while looking for an entry on a lower timeframe.

That’s why Myfxbook Backtest supports multiple synchronized charts.

Open different charts and timeframes together and replay them in sync, giving you a much more complete view of what the market looked like at that exact point in time.

For example, you could analyze:

H4 → H1 → M15 → M5

while keeping every chart synchronized during your backtest.

This makes multi-timeframe backtesting considerably easier and closer to the way many traders actually analyze markets.

Use Technical Analysis While You Backtest

A market replay tool should give you more than just Play and Pause.

Myfxbook Backtest includes technical analysis tools and indicators so you can analyze historical markets using the same type of chart analysis you would normally perform when studying current price action.

Use indicators, drawing tools and multiple timeframes to test trading setups without knowing what happens next.

Whether your strategy is based on support and resistance, moving averages, momentum, price action or a combination of technical signals, you can apply your analysis directly to the historical chart.

Go Beyond Replay With Myfxbook Analytics

Finishing the market replay is only the beginning.

Once you’ve completed a backtest, you can analyze the results using Myfxbook Analytics.

Instead of simply finishing a replay and deciding that a strategy “felt good,” you can review its actual performance and better understand how the strategy behaved throughout the test.

This makes it easier to move from subjective chart analysis to measurable results.

Backtest. Analyze. Refine. Repeat.

Share Your Backtests

Found an interesting strategy or want someone else to review your results?

Your Myfxbook backtests can also be shared with others.

This makes it easy to share a test with another trader, discuss a strategy or provide a complete view of your backtest results without manually recreating everything elsewhere.

A Completely Free Forex Backtesting Tool

Many forex backtesting and market replay platforms restrict historical data, advanced functionality or the number of sessions you can run unless you subscribe to a paid plan.

We wanted to make backtesting accessible to every Myfxbook user.

With Myfxbook Backtest, you get:

• 20+ years of historical market data
• 1-minute historical data
• Hundreds of symbols
• Market replay
• Multiple synchronized charts
• Technical analysis tools
• Myfxbook performance analytics
• Shareable backtests

And it’s completely free. No fine print.

Getting started is simple:

1. Open Myfxbook Backtest
2. Choose the symbol and historical period you want to test
3. Replay the market and test your trading strategy
4. Analyze your backtest with Myfxbook Analytics
5. Save or share your results

You can repeat the process across different symbols, timeframes and historical periods to see how your strategy behaves under different market conditions.

Backtest Your Strategy Before the Market Tests It

Looking at historical charts is useful.

Replaying them, testing your decisions and measuring the results is much more powerful.

Myfxbook Backtest brings historical market replay, multi-chart analysis, technical analysis and Myfxbook Analytics together in one place.

Hundreds of symbols. More than 20 years of history. 1-minute data. Completely free.

We’re excited to introduce Myfxbook Loyalty Points, a new rewards program designed to give traders more value from the activities they already do across Myfxbook.

With Loyalty Points, members can collect points by completing eligible actions, reaching milestones, and unlocking rewards such as funded prop accounts and broker account opportunities. The more you participate, the closer you get to your next reward.

What Are Myfxbook Loyalty Points?

Loyalty Points are a new way to reward active Myfxbook members.

By taking part in selected activities across Myfxbook, users can earn points and build progress toward reward milestones. These milestones unlock trading-related rewards, starting with a $5,000 Prop Account at 3,000 points.

The rewards program is built to make your Myfxbook experience even more engaging, whether you’re exploring prop firms, opening accounts with participating brokers, subscribing to updates, referring friends, or sharing your trading activity.

Rewards You Can Unlock

As you collect points, you can unlock bigger rewards at each milestone. Current reward milestones include:

These milestones are designed to give traders a clear path from first rewards to larger opportunities as they continue earning points.

How to Earn Points

There are several ways to start earning Loyalty Points on Myfxbook.

You can earn points by completing eligible activities such as purchasing prop challenges, opening accounts with participating brokers, subscribing to the Loyalty Newsletter, taking part in daily polls, referring friends, and sharing successful trades. Myfxbook notes that participating broker offers can be identified by the rewards icon.

Some activities may award a fixed number of points, while others may offer higher earning potential depending on the action. For example, the rewards page highlights prop challenge purchases, participating broker account openings, and the Loyalty Newsletter as point-earning opportunities.

Why We Built Loyalty Points

Myfxbook has always focused on giving traders tools, data, and community features that help them make more informed decisions. Loyalty Points adds another layer to that experience: rewarding users for engaging with the platform and discovering opportunities that may support their trading journey.

Whether you’re comparing prop firms, reviewing brokers, following market updates, or staying active in the community, the rewards program gives you a new reason to get more out of Myfxbook.

How Rewards Work

Once an eligible action is completed and approved, points are added to your balance. When you redeem a reward, the required points are deducted from your available balance.

A few important program rules:

Points have no cash value, cannot be transferred, and do not expire. Some actions may only be completed once, while repeatable actions are clearly marked. Myfxbook may reverse points in cases of abuse, fraud, or misuse, and serious misuse may result in account suspension.

We’re excited to introduce Strategy AI, a new Myfxbook tool that helps traders create, test, and manage automated trading strategies for MetaTrader 5 — without writing code.

With Strategy AI, you can turn trading ideas into ready-to-use MT5 Expert Advisors, run cloud-based backtests, compare strategy versions, and download generated code when you’re ready. It’s designed to make strategy development faster, simpler, and more accessible for every trader.

From Idea to Strategy in Minutes

Building an automated trading strategy has traditionally required programming knowledge, a detailed technical specification, and multiple rounds of development, testing, and debugging.

Strategy AI changes that.

Instead of coding manually, you define your trading preferences and let Strategy AI generate the strategy for you. The tool uses AI to combine trading logic, indicators, and risk parameters, producing MT5 Expert Advisors in seconds to minutes depending on complexity.

That means traders can move from idea to execution much faster — whether they are testing a simple concept or experimenting with more advanced trading logic.

No Coding Required

Strategy AI is built for traders, not just developers.

You don’t need programming knowledge to create an EA. Strategy AI handles the generation process, creating ready-to-use MT5 Expert Advisors based on your selected preferences. Advanced users can still edit the generated code in MT5’s editor, but the goal is to minimize the need for manual coding.

This makes automated strategy creation accessible to beginners while giving experienced traders a faster way to prototype and test new ideas.

Build, Backtest, and Improve

Strategy AI is more than a code generator. It gives traders a complete workflow for developing strategies.

You can create strategies instantly, automatically generate the code, and download it anytime. You can also run unlimited backtests in the cloud, without installing software or relying on your own machine, and Myfxbook will notify you when your backtest is ready.

Backtesting lets you evaluate how a generated EA would have performed on historical market data before considering live use. While backtest results are useful for analysis, they do not guarantee future performance, since market conditions can change.

Track Every Version

Strategy development is rarely perfect on the first attempt. Traders often need to test, adjust, compare, and refine.

That’s why Strategy AI includes versioning. You can save and track different versions of your strategies, compare performance across versions, roll back to earlier versions, and safely experiment with improvements.

This makes it easier to test new ideas without losing previous work or relying on scattered files and notes.

Built for Speed, Privacy, and Independence

Hiring a programmer to build an EA can work, but it often takes time, adds cost, and requires sharing your trading logic with someone else.

Strategy AI gives traders more control. You can create, modify, test, and iterate strategies anytime, from anywhere, while keeping your strategies, configurations, and results private to your account.

For traders with proprietary ideas, that privacy can be especially valuable.

Proven Strategy Implementation Performance

Strategy AI was benchmarked in March 2026 on the correct implementation of 20 different trading strategies. In that benchmark, Strategy AI achieved a 97% pass rate, outperforming major AI models on trading strategy implementation.

This focus on accurate implementation is important: a strategy is only useful if the generated EA correctly follows the intended trading logic.

Flexible Plans for Different Traders

Strategy AI is available through several plans depending on usage level.

The Starter plan is designed for creating a first strategy, while Plus is aimed at active traders building multiple strategies with advanced logic. The Pro plan is built for heavy users who need maximum volume and value. All plans include access to Strategy AI creation, code generation, strategy versioning, and backtesting.

Start Creating Smarter Strategies Today

Strategy AI is now live on Myfxbook: https://www.myfxbook.com/strategy-ai

Whether you’re new to automated trading or already experienced with EAs, Strategy AI gives you a faster way to create, test, and improve MT5 strategies — without the traditional coding barrier.

As a pioneer in forex portfolio tracking, we are always looking to invent the next game changing feature for you to enjoy and after much thought and development, we’re thrilled to announce a one of a kind, Portfolio Forecast  based on your actual trading! 🚀  Whether you’re a seasoned trader or just dipping your toes into the financial waters, this new feature will empower you to make informed decisions about your trading.

Let’s dive right in:

Non-Compounding Method:

What it does: The non-compounding method provides a straightforward projection of your portfolio’s growth. It assumes that any gains (or losses) you make each year are not reinvested but instead remain static.

When to use it: If you prefer a conservative estimate or want to see a baseline scenario without the effects of reinvestment, this method is for you.

Compounding Method:

What it does: Compounding is the magic ingredient in long-term wealth building. This method factors in reinvestment of gains. As your portfolio grows, it compounds – earning returns on previous returns.

When to use it: If you’re in it for the long haul and want to see the compounding effect over time, this method is your go-to.

Monte Carlo Method:

What it does: Buckle up! The Monte Carlo simulation takes portfolio forecasting to a whole new level. It considers randomness, market volatility, and countless scenarios. By running thousands of simulations, it gives you a distribution of potential outcomes.

When to use it: When you crave a realistic view of uncertainty—because life isn’t a straight line. Worried about market crashes? Curious about best-case and worst-case scenarios? Monte Carlo’s got your back.

What are the different settings?

Forecast Settings

The different modes allow you to target number of years, equity, profit or growth values. You can also set a custom growth value and/or starting equity to test different scenarios.

Chart Settings

Use the options of the chart (right top corner) to view the chart in different modes. You can choose to view it in a cumulative or yearly options; you can view plot as equity, profit, or growth.

Share it

Once the forecast is generated, whether you want to keep it for reference purposes or share it with your fellow traders or anyone else, just hit the download icon to save the forecast as an image.

We’re happy to announce a new powerful metric addition to the statistics – margin. Margin is the amount of money you use to trade and it can tell a lot about a trading strategy. We’ve added this metric to further support your trading decisions or help analyse someone else’s trading strategy.

The new margin chart is visible at the top of a system page:

It includes 4 different chart types:

Margin – Margin is the percentage (%) value based on the amount of equity versus position value.
Margin Level – Margin Level is the percentage (%) value based on the amount of equity versus required margin.
Leverage – Actual leverage used by the account based on position nominal value versus account equity.
Available Margin – Available free margin represented as percentage (%) of total account margin.

The margin metric will help you understand if a trading system is taking excessive risks, how close was (or is) it to a margin call, and the real leverage used throughout the lifetime of the trading account.

Wishing you profitable trading, 

The Myfxbook Team.
