HOW CAN I SET UP BACKTEST FOR DAYTRADE TO:
A) BUY MAXIMA OR SELL THE MINIMUM OF THE 1st CANDLE OF 30MIN, WHICH OCCURS 1st

B) CLOSE POSITION:
- X% PROFIT OR
- LOSS OF X% OR
- X CANDLES AFTER ENTRY OR
- 1st CANDLE IN PROFIT AFTER X CANDLES OF ENTRY,

WHAT OCCURS 1st

C) START NEW POSITION ONLY THE NEXT DAY

A) As of now only long position can be backtested but it will change soon. You will soon be able to test short positions too. Also, buy/sell price can be chosen from the open/high/low/close/typical/average/median price. I am working on to allow other values to.

B) You can specify all your criteria in backtest dialog except "1st CANDLE IN PROFIT AFTER X CANDLES OF ENTRY". Please let me know if you have any difficulty finding them.

C) This is not possible as of now. But I am doing enhancements and will have this feature too.
