how to back test a manual trading stategies?

how can i back test my strategy in 5 minutes time frame. i don’t use algos . I place and exit my orders manually .

you can back test it manually in amibroker ( trial version) with back data of the stock or index and run a market replay function on 5 minute time frame. as new candles come in you can write down the entry, exit stop loss etc on a paper.
alternatively you can use zerodha kite, add the stock and open a 5 minute chart, go the beginning ( or a few week back ) of the chart and press the next arrow key. only one candle is added for every key press. i use this to check my price action or any indicator based strategy.
