eStockes

eStockes is a stock research platform for individual investors and swing traders. Its free Reality Check tool lets you test a trading rule on up to five years of daily US stock and ETF prices, without coding or an account, and compares the result with simply buying and holding. Every result includes modeled trading costs, drawdown and trade count, and it says plainly when holding did better.

We also publish the popular trading rules we tested ourselves after costs, with each rule fixed in writing before the test. Of 10 rules so far, none passed.

Members get a stock screener, charts, watchlists, alerts and a free trading academy. Historical simulations are not predictions or financial advice.
