I understand that I can setup multiple simulation accounts for backtesting,
but I don't understand how can I switch between the different accounts,
and access each account trading data.

my purpose is to create separate backtesting strategies in each account.

You just simply select the account on the Trade Window for the chart you are using for back testing, before you start the back test:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Main/C >> Trade Account (Selecting Trade Account for Chart / Trade DOM)

You can use a different account for each back test. You can control the number of simulation accounts that exist:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Number of Simulation Accounts (Global Settings >> General Trade Settings >> General)

And then you can view the results in the Trade Activity Log by selecting the same account:
Trade Activity Log: Viewing Historical Trade Activity
