NZPack NinjaTrader Backtest Setup

I need my NZPack-powered NinjaTrader environment configured from scratch so I can reliably backtest and refine a metals strategy (gold and silver). Your task begins with a clean install: connect to my machine through the temporary remote credentials I will supply, load NZPack, adjust any dependencies, and verify that every component compiles without errors. Because I don’t yet have the historical data, please locate a high-quality tick or one-minute feed that covers at least the past five years of COMEX gold and silver futures, import it, and build the necessary databases so the platform can run fast, repeated simulations. Once the data is in place, run representative backtests that highlight the performance of my current template. I am interested in performance optimisation rather than mere validation, so I will rely on you to interpret the results, adjust parameter sets, and demonstrate measurable improvements in key metrics such as net profit, drawdown, and Sharpe. When you are satisfied with the numbers, push the optimised settings into a live-ready workspace and double-check order routing, slippage settings, and continuity across sessions. Deliverables • Fully functioning NZPack + NinjaTrader installation on my system • Imported and verified historical gold/silver futures data • Backtest reports (PDF or Excel) showing before/after performance metrics • Saved workspace and templates configured for live execution I will be available on chat for quick questions and can schedule screen-share sessions if you need to walk me through any results. I’m aiming for a smooth hand-off, so concise documentation of the steps you took and the final parameter values will round off the job nicely.
