Hello,all: 

I'm new to R, I know that there is a package called quantmod which can perform some basic application in trading. 

I just want to now that: until now, is this quantmod package be able to do tick data trading backtesting? 

If yes, I'm planning using more time and effort to learn. If not, maybe just try to use an other platform. 

Hope someone can answer. 

Thanks

PS.And I just check the website for quantmod... 

in the "what's next", here is the information:

5、More high frequency testing - possibly tick data
6、......

So I guess we still can not do such backtesting in R.... 

Can anyone expericenced conform that? 

thanks
