Could you explain how to your mind walk-forward testing will work with TradeManager? Is it something like paper trading? And what do you mean by "support multiple currencies in back-testing"?

When I created this post it was intended to be in the feature request topic.

I would like MC to support currency conversion. I would like to be able to choose a base currency like USD and whatever I tested or traded would always be shown in USD. The currency conversion could be calculated in RT or by the previous closing rates.

In Strategy Back-Testing Performance Report, on Display tab you can enter the necessary exchange rate to convert whatever you traded into USD. Is this what you need?
