Past performance

Strategy Tester output is historical simulation on TradingView's data model. Slippage, spreads, fills, and live broker rules can differ. Not financial advice.

What to open​

  1. Add AIMS Algo to your chart (button above).
  2. Open Strategy Tester at the bottom of TradingView.
  3. Select a symbol and timeframe you actually trade or research.
  4. Set a date range (multi-year windows help regime context; shorter windows help recent behaviour).
  5. Review Overview, Return details, Trades analysis, and Equity run-ups and drawdowns.

How to read the equity curve​

  • Slope — whether the simulated equity rose or fell over the selected window.
  • Drawdowns — depth and duration of equity dips; compare to your personal risk tolerance.
  • Flat periods — may be correct when the strategy had no valid mapped move.

Do not select inputs solely because one backtest window looks smooth.

Before you change inputs to chase metrics​

  1. Confirm data quality for your symbol on TradingView.
  2. Re-run with default inputs on a second symbol you know well.
  3. Read the trade list — are losses clustered in one regime?
  4. Only then adjust settings — see Strategy settings.
