Project Settings: Spread Control & 15s / 30s Timeframes
I actively use Forex Tester Online for strategy development, liquidity-based trading, and prop firm preparation.
I would like to suggest two important features that would significantly improve realism and flexibility for both Regular Projects and Prop Projects:
1) Ability to Disable Spread (Project-Level Setting)
It would be extremely useful to have an option to disable spread when creating a new project — not only for Prop Projects, but also for regular testing projects.
For traders who work with liquidity concepts and precise execution models, spread often distorts entries and does not reflect the way many strategies are trained.
A simple toggle to enable or disable spread at the project creation stage would provide much more flexibility and realistic testing conditions.
2) Add 15-Second and 30-Second Timeframes
Adding 15s and 30s timeframes would be a major improvement for scalpers and traders who refine entries on lower timeframes.
Many modern execution models rely on lower-timeframe structure, and these timeframes would greatly enhance precision and realism during backtesting.
These features would strongly improve Forex Tester Online for serious traders, both for daily practice and professional prop firm preparation.
Thank you for considering this request.

Hi @User ,
Thank you very much for taking the time to share such detailed and thoughtful feedback — we really appreciate it.
Your points regarding spread control at the project level are very clear, and we understand how disabling spread can be important for traders working with liquidity-based and precision execution models. This kind of flexibility would indeed make testing conditions more adaptable to different trading approaches.
As for the 15-second and 30-second timeframes, this is something that is already on our radar. We recognize how valuable lower timeframes are for scalpers and traders refining entries, and we agree that they would significantly enhance realism and precision during backtesting.
