SIMULATED REPLAY — NOT LIVE QUOTES

Pick any day in history. Replay starts — the future stays hidden.

  • Your full toolkit

    Trendlines, rays, boxes, fibs with EQ + OTE, premium/discount ranges, and long/short position tools that pre-fill the order ticket.

  • Real order simulation

    Market, limit and stop orders with SL/TP and risk-$ sizing. Same-bar collisions resolve stop-first, so your stats never flatter you.

  • 1m to 1D, your pace

    Step a bar at a time or replay at 10×. Switch timeframes mid-session — the future stays hidden on every one of them.

The loop

Reps, without the risk.

The same four-step loop the pros run — compressed from months of waiting for setups into an afternoon.

01

Pick a day

Choose an instrument, a timeframe and a date — up to ten years back on the daily, two on the hourlies. Replay drops you there with the future hidden.

02

Mark it up

Draw your levels exactly how you trade live: boxes, fibs, equilibrium ranges, liquidity lines. Drawings stick across timeframe switches.

03

Trade it

Fire market, limit or stop orders with a stop and target. Risk-$ sizing computes your units. Play, pause, step, or fast-forward to the next session.

04

Read the stats

Every fill journals itself. Win rate, average R, profit factor, streaks — per session, so each strategy gets its own verdict.

Backtest P&L

Practice gets the same scoreboard.

Every simulated trade rolls into a P&L dashboard identical to the live journal — equity curve, win rate and average RR, rolling edge, profit streaks, day-of-week stats. By the time you risk real money, the numbers already exist.

  • Auto-journaled

    No spreadsheet. Entries, exits, R multiples and exit reasons log themselves the moment a trade closes.

  • Per-strategy sessions

    Run 'NQ London opens' and 'Gold NY reversals' as separate sessions and let the stats argue about which one deserves your money.

  • Kept apart from live

    Backtest results live on their own tab — your real journal never gets polluted by practice trades.

FAQ

Quick answers.

01Is backtesting really free?+
Yes. It ships with every TraderM8 account — no add-on subscription, no per-month replay quota, no data fees. Tools like this usually cost $20–35 a month on their own.
02How far back can I replay?+
About ten years on the daily chart, two years on 1H/4H, a month on 5m/15m and five days on 1m. Pick a start date and the chart clamps to what's available.
03Do practice trades touch my real journal?+
No. Backtest sessions keep their own P&L tab with the same graphs as the live journal — equity curve, win rate, streaks — but the two never mix.
04Can it leak the future?+
No. Bars only appear once they've closed at your replay cursor, on every timeframe — switching from 5m up to 4H mid-replay rebuilds the partial candle from closed data only.
