How to Back Testing Automated Trading System

Good day,

Is there a way to backtest an automated trading system (ACSIL) using only specific session times? I'd like the chart to display both in-session and out-of-session data for reference. However, once the current trading session ends, I'd like the backtest to automatically jump to the start of the next session instead of processing all of the out-of-session data.

There is not a way to do this. Whatever data is in the chart is what the backtest will use.
