01 THE ODDS
Most day traders lose money. Do you want to be one of them?
Researchers followed every day trader in Brazil's futures market for years. Of those who kept going for more than 300 days, 97 out of 100 lost money. The few who make it rarely got lucky. They put in the screen time and tested their plan before they put in the money.
The 97 or the 3? You choose by how you practice.

02 WHY REPLAY
Why every trader should replay.
Skill in trading comes from repetitions: seeing a setup, making a decision and getting feedback. Live markets give you a few of those a week. Replay gives you hundreds in an afternoon.
Try a session →- 01
More reps, faster feedback
Waiting days for a trade to play out teaches slowly. Speed up, step through and see the outcome of each decision in minutes.
- 02
No hindsight bias
The future is hidden. Start from a random date and you decide exactly like you would live: without knowing what happens next.
- 03
Practice the rare days
Crashes, parabolic rallies, news spikes and dead ranges. Find them in the history and trade them again until your plan holds up.
- 04
Build discipline before it costs money
Stops, position sizing and daily loss limits feel different when you practice them on every trade. Make mistakes here, not in your account.
- 05
Test an idea in an evening
Collect a hundred examples of a setup across years and markets. Let the numbers tell you whether it works, not your memory of the best trades.
- 06
Measure your progress
Every trade is logged with your reason, rating and result. Win rate, average R and profit factor show what to keep and what to drop.

10 FAQ
Questions you might have.
What is bar replay?
Rewinding a chart to a date in the past, hiding everything after it and moving forward candle by candle. You decide without knowing the outcome, which makes it the closest practice to real trading.
How do I backtest a trading strategy manually?
Write your rules down first (entry trigger, stop, target, risk per trade). Pick a random date, replay the chart forward candle by candle and take every trade your rules allow. Tag each trade, and after 100 or more trades look at the win rate, average R and the worst losing streak in the statistics tab. If the numbers hold up across different years, you have evidence; if not, change one rule and test again.
Can I practice for a prop firm (funded account) challenge?
Yes. The challenge simulator applies a profit target, a daily loss limit, a maximum drawdown and a time limit to your replay account, so you find out whether your strategy survives the rules before you pay for a real challenge.
Is real money involved?
No. Every trade uses a virtual balance. Fees and slippage are calculated realistically, but no order is ever sent to an exchange.
Which markets are available?
42 crypto pairs since their listing day, 7 forex pairs with complete data since 2003 (NZD/USD since 2005; earlier years are thinner) and spot gold since 2009.
What does the beta include, and what does it cost?
Nothing: beta is free. Invited testers get every market, the full history since 2003, every timeframe and all the tools. We ask for honest feedback in return. Prices for a paid plan are not final and nobody is charged during the beta.
Is there a limit on how many candles I can replay?
No. You can replay the full history of every market on every timeframe, including 1-minute candles: almost 9 million bars on EUR/USD and 4.8 million on Bitcoin.
Is there leverage?
No, on purpose. Position size is calculated from your balance and your risk per trade, so you learn to manage risk first.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Replay the Chart runs in your browser on desktop and laptop. Your sessions, drawings and journal are saved to your account, so they follow you to another computer.
Is this investment advice?
No. Replay the Chart is an education and practice tool. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
