Recent BackTests
This feature stores backtest results of the portfolio for up to six hours, allowing you to reload the backtest result within a time period of six hours.
You can run a portfolio, navigate to other pages in AlgoTest, complete other tasks, and return to view the backtest results within a 6-hour timeframe.
How to use Recent BackTests?​
You can utilise the Recent BackTests feature by following these simple steps:
- Visit the AlgoTest website and click on the "Portfolios" button, as shown in the image below.

- Click on the "Recent Backtests" button to view your portfolio results. Your results will be stored for 6 hours. You can come back to your portfolio at any time and click on the "Recent Backtests" button to view your recent backtest results within 6 hours from the time you ran the backtest.
- It will show you your recent backtests. You can click on the "load this version" button and it will show you backtest result for that portfolio.
- You can also modify the strategy inputs in the portfolio and backtest the portfolio again. You can view both the old and modified versions of the portfolio backtest results by clicking on the recent backtest button, along with the time, as shown in the image below.
Important Points​
-
You don't have to wait for your backtest to load; you can navigate to other screens or pages and return to it later.
-
If you make changes to the portfolio, such as adding or removing a strategy, you will not be able to revert to the previous portfolio and its results.
-
If you make changes to a strategy in the portfolio and load a previous result, the results based on the previous strategy settings will be loaded, not those reflecting the most recent changes.
