英文摘要:
In recent years several trading platforms appeared which provide a backtest engine to calculate historic performance of self designed trading strategies on underlying candle data. The construction of a correct working backtest engine is, however, a subtle task as shown by Maier-Paape and Platen (cf. arXiv:1412.5558 [q-fin.TR]). Several platforms are struggling on the correctness. In this work, we discuss the problem how the correctness of backtest engines can be verified. We provide models for candles and for intra-period prices which will be applied to conduct a proof of correctness for a given backtest engine if the here provided tests on specific model candles are successful. Furthermore, we hint to algorithmic considerations in order to allow for a fast implementation of these tests necessary for the proof of correctness.

中文摘要:
近年来,出现了一些交易平台,它们提供了一个回溯测试引擎,用于计算自我设计的交易策略在基础数据上的历史表现。然而,正如Maier Paape和Platen(参见arXiv:1412.5558[q-fin.TR])所示,构建一个正确工作的回溯测试引擎是一项微妙的任务。有几个平台在正确性上苦苦挣扎。在这项工作中,我们讨论了如何验证回溯测试引擎的正确性的问题。我们提供蜡烛模型和期内价格模型,如果此处提供的特定模型蜡烛测试成功,这些模型将用于对给定的回溯测试引擎进行正确性证明。此外,为了快速实现这些验证正确性所需的测试,我们还提示了算法方面的注意事项。
