backtesting?

[CarrieW]

how do you do this? do you just go backwards or do you put in a specific date and go forward in real time from that point??

it doesnt make sense to me and I havent ever tried to do it. If I am going backwards then I already know whats happened. I dont see how this would help lol. I'm trying to figure out if it would be benifical to me to be doing backtesting also or just continue to go forward with the market livedemo trading.

if someone could try to explain this concept to me I would appreciate it.
