How are orders and prices matched in FYERS Automate Backtest?

How are orders and prices matched in FYERS Automate Backtest?

Backtest on FYERS Automate simulates order execution using historical market data. The orders in a backtest are considered as market orders, and the execution price for the market order is taken as the 1-minute candle close price.

This helps the backtest estimate how the strategy would have performed during the selected period. Since this is a historical simulation, no real orders are placed in the market.

What if…

I compare backtest and live tradesDifferences may occur because backtest uses the 1-minute candle close price for simulated market order execution.
