    I know about the stock market and the foreign exchange currency market (forex) which is open 24 hours a day on weekdays.And then there is the bond market, and options, futures, forwards markets. What other types markets are there that you can trade in. Particularly low volume and low government control

    All market will close in the weekend. One exception is gambling where you can also ‘trade’ your luck.

    I am aware of MQL4. One can create an expert advisor to automate your investing, but what I want is to test my strategies with historical data. For example, what would have happen during the last 5 months if I would have sold here and bought here using such and such indicators in every single time a certain criteria was met.

    Is there a way to do this using MQL4? or is there any other way to do back-testing in Forex?

    Thank you for your time and please don’t try to sell me anything.

    If you have a simple forex trading strategy that is very easy to understand kindly share it please. No commercial products.

    Asking people for a simple Forex strategy is like asking people if they have a simple method for playing poker that will allow you to win playing poker experts. There is no simple Forex strategy that works.

    Forex is what we call a "zero sum" game. You are making a bet with someone else about whether a currency will rise or fall. For every winner there has to be a loser. If you are smarter than the average player, you may make money. If you are dumber than the average player, you are likely to lose money. Most of the people making the "bets" in Forex are highly trained professionals at banks and other institutions. You are unlikely to beat them at this game using a "simple" strategy.

    Actually Forex is not quite a zero sum game. It’s a slightly negative sum game as the Forex broker takes a small percentage each time in the spread. It’s a small amount but over a hundred trades, it ends up being a considerable amount of money. So the average player is likely to lose money, and remember the average player is a highly trained professional and probably smarter than you.

    There is a lot of luck in Forex, and if you play it, you will have some periods of time where you make money. This is usually because you are having a lucky streak, not because you have suddenly become an expert Forex player. However, most people are unwilling to admit their success is due to luck. They become convinced they have a system that works, and lose a lot of money trying to refine it.
