I Built a Tool That Lets You Backtest Trading Strategies Using Plain English
Key topics
I’ve been working on a side project called quantoman.com — it’s a webapp where you can type natural language like “Backtest a long-short strategy on AAPL and MSFT with a 20-day moving average crossover since 2018”, and it automatically converts it into a backtest.
I’m trying to make strategy testing more intuitive for people who understand markets but not necessarily code.
Would love your feedback — how would you improve the interface or what kinds of strategies would you want to test?
No fees. Just a google sign up
