Can users backtest their strategies using custom indicators created within the MKC platform?

MKC Trading Software calculates Value at Risk (VaR) as a standard feature, given its focus on risk management and trading tools. VaR is a statistical measure that estimates the potential loss in a portfolio over a specific time period with a given confidence level.

The major programming languages that are supported for API access are Python, Java, C#, and C++. With these languages, you can access advanced market data, order execution facility, advanced charting, historical data, custom indicators, and more.

Relative Strength Index (RSI) is calculated using the standard formula in MKC. The formula is:

RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)) RS = Average Upward Closes / Average Downward Closes

Where,

Average Upward Closes is the average of upward price changes over some time.

Average Downward Closes is the average of downward price changes over some time.

Lookback period, smoothing, and overbought/oversold level are some parameters that users can customize.
