Episode notes
Get Volume Profile On Essential
- If volume profile matters to your style, avoid the Basic plan because it lacks those indicators.
- Volume profile can materially aid analysis, so pick Essential or higher.
Choose Plans That Export Strategy Data
- If you plan to export automated backtest results, pick Plus or higher which allow exporting strategy data.
- Manual backtesting is fine early, but export capability matters for advanced testing workflows.
Use Deep Backtesting For Time-Specific Tests
- Use Premium/Ultimate for deep backtesting features like selecting specific time ranges.
- Isolated-period testing helps evaluate seasonality and time-specific strategy performance.
