Plain English in. Backtest out.

Describe a futures trading idea the way you'd say it out loud "Buy MNQ when it drops 1% below yesterday's close" and AskFutures runs a real historical backtest in seconds: equity curve, win rate, drawdown, trade-by-trade ledger. No code. Test the trade before you take it.



Typed in "buy MNQ after a 1% drop" just to see what happens and got a full equity curve plus trade ledger in like 10 seconds. Honestly didn't expect the drawdown breakdown to be this readable.
honestly the voice-to-backtest thing is kind of cool, dropped a quick idea in and got an equity curve in seconds. wish the drawdown readout was a bit easier to read on mobile but overall solid for testing stuff before committing.
Typed in a rough MNQ pullback idea and got back a full equity curve with drawdown in under a minute, actually impressed by how natural the plain English input feels.
Would love to see walk-forward validation built in so the backtest automatically splits data into in-sample and out-of-sample periods. That way you know if "buy MNQ on a 1% dip" actually held up or just worked on the chunk you tested.
