Backtesting historical data

[rahuljain]

Hello,

I am building an algo platform for the Stocks and Future market.
Can I use smart API for historical data for backtesting purposes?
If yes,

1. Any charges for it ?
2. Any limitations in the API ?
3. Can I retrieve data of any symbol , of any timeframe and price base?
