I've been looking for a place to backtest my  strategies i used  TV but it's giving me just 20k bars, i want something i can backtest for a year or two on a 5m or 1m chart, can I do it without pulling the data and analyzing it?

Maybe you can try another data from another exchange in TV?

I believe some exchange data could be limited to the time it was listed or something. Are you looking for a specific coin pair to chart?

TradingView is widely used but you can try this alternative below.

I think trying your strategy, you can as well do that by opening a practice account where you can do a test of your strategy especially for a Forex trading if that is what you are looking for, you can check up to a year past.

i mean i want a place i can test on  a data that is more than 20k bars , like i want to  back test a 3 years of 1m bars , TV  can't do this

If you have a script for your strategy, you can use it to run back test on Trading view. If you can code, you can do back-testing.

Backtest a TradingView strategy between a start and end date (https://kodify.net/tradingview/date-time/backtest-between-dates/)

i want  a place to back test more than that time range

Try on https://www.tradingview.com/ to backtest your strategy.

I don't quite have the technical knowledge but whenever I have something new on my mind I try it out in the demo accounts at trading platforms. It gives me a clear idea of how successful the strategy is going to be and whether it is worth risking with real money.

But he said TV can't do it, see the post just above yours  :)

I am part of a few telegram groups where some expert traders talk and I will try and get an answer from them because I am just not good enough with these technical things.

I recommend that you use tensorcharts.com, also that platform has the option of the "Volume Profile" and the best of all is that the color of the volume in green means purchases and red is purchases. They also show you the liquidity pools that are formed and you can see the purchase and sales orders in real time.
It seems to me that it is very complete, of course to access all the benefits you have to buy the version so that you have all the premium privileges, but in reality the platform is very powerful.

Just create binance account, generate API key and use Marked data endpoints with few lines of code to collect what you want.

Kline/Candlestick Data:
Name   Type   Mandatory   Description
symbol   STRING   YES   
interval   ENUM   YES   
startTime   LONG   NO   
endTime   LONG   NO   
limit   INT   NO   Default 500; max 1000.

As you can see you can put 1m or 5m candle as parameter (interval) together with starttime and endtime.

There is also "Old Trade Lookup" and "Compressed/Aggregate Trades List" if you need to get data trade by trade. It it might be too much for backtesting simple strategies.

Try meta trader platform. You can do back test on it. You also can create your own " advisor signal " or even bot. It requaire a little knowledge about programing language. MT4 or MT5 then you connect it to binance API so you can take the market data movement from binance.

Then increase it to triple monitor setup which setup is mostly used by taders, analysts, gamers to do multiple tasks at the same time. But I don't know why you need to compare 20K bars, just go with the chart form then you will get the better idea.

i don't know what got us to the setup talk , i need to test my strategy on the data of the bear market  , i need to know what would my strategy do in the 2018 and 2019 not just the last month , 20k of 5m chart will never be enough  an by TV i mean Trading view , not television
