What is the best stock trading system testing software?
Is there any such software where I can backtest different variables with historical data?
I know tradestation does it, but I just want the software right now, not a broker.
Anyone know of anything?
"Best" depends on your definition. Tradestation is supposedly the best, but is also expensive. Metastock is a good alternative, it seems.
Online and free, there is:

I use Stockwiz. It’s completely programmable, which is what I wanted, but the programming language is …. primitive.
But it’s free and by now I can do anything I want with it.

Caveat:
- I am still using version 3, although there is a version 4 available
- You still need a service to get your daily stockquotes, which is most likely *not* free
