Are you prepare to pay money for it? I use Amibroker for charting and it has a backtesting facility. If you can write your rules down exactly, then it gives you a fairly good idea of the system. I would have done it slightly different, but it beats using Excel each time.

Or just get married - someone who told you so every time you lose money, and how she shoulda listened to her mother and married the guy with the Toyota dealership.

If you like free stuff, try Wall Street Analyser. You will find it on www.tucows.com and it is in a zip file called wsa.zip.
