Yes, that is possible. If you create a trading strategy, you will see multiple options to test it.

Once your trading strategy is ready and saved, click on the "Test" tab.

Cryptohopper's strategy editing interface titled 'Edit strategy' showing MACD + SAR configuration. Features top toolbar with Save, Indicators, Candle Patterns, Test, Code, and Delete buttons. Main panel displays technical indicators: MACD and Parabolic SAR for both buy and sell signals, all set to 4-hour candle size. Shows minimum signal requirements (2 out of 2 for both buy and sell). Left panel includes strategy name, description field, and strategy image upload section with Cryptohopper branded surf image. Interface enables complete technical analysis strategy creation and backtesting capability.

Backtest

The backtest displays all buy and/or sell signals within approximately a month's timeframe.

Cryptohopper's strategy backtesting interface showing BTC-EUR price action on Bitvavo exchange from March 2 to March 22. Features price chart (57,500 to 70,000 EUR range) with green buy and red sell signals overlaid as vertical lines. Top controls include exchange selector (Bitvavo), market pair selector (BTC-EUR), 'Backtest' and 'Quick check' buttons, and progress indicator showing '0 out of 100 backtests per day'. Chart demonstrates trading strategy's historical buy/sell signal generation for performance analysis.

Please note that the strategy backtester does not consider the maximum number of open positions set in your trading bot. The backtester primarily serves to observe when your trading strategy buys or sells.

Quick Check

The quick check function displays the current values of the technical indicators you have set. This provides a snapshot of the moment you click the Quick Check button.

Please note that Cryptohopper's technical indicator formulas may differ slightly from those of TradingView.
