Loading the replay demo

Replay chart with the playback controls in the top right corner Step 1

Pick a market and a date. The future stays hidden.

Choose a pair, a date range and a starting balance. The chart opens on the bars before your start date, so you have context, and nothing after it shows until you press Play.

  • Forex pairs and metals on the free plan
  • Any timeframe from 1 minute to daily
  • Change timeframe during the replay
  • Your own timezone on the chart
Playback controls with the speed slider and the Bar and Intrabar modes Step 2

Let it play, or go one bar at a time.

Press Space to play and stop. Step forward one bar, or five at once, when you want to read a move slowly, and set the speed anywhere from a crawl to fast-forward. The replay only moves forward, like a live market, so there is no peeking at the next candle.

  • Play and stop with Space
  • Skip 1 bar or 5 bars
  • Change the speed while it plays
  • Intrabar mode (Premium): each candle forms from its real 1-minute bars
New Trade window with a stop loss, two take profits and a risk-based lot size Step 3

Trade it as it happens.

Press T to open a trade. Go long or short at market or with a limit order, set a stop loss and one or more take profits, and let the lot size follow the risk you choose. Orders fill when the replay reaches their price.

  • Long or short, market or limit
  • Stop loss and several take profits
  • Lot size from your risk %
  • Drag stops and targets on the chart
Trade review with the trade drawn on the chart and its score out of 10 Step 4

Then see what you would have made.

Save the session and every trade stays on record: your equity curve, your stats and a score out of 10 for each trade, with tips. Replay any trade again from entry to exit, or continue the session another day.

  • Unlimited sessions on the free plan
  • Equity curve and stats for every session
  • A score out of 10 for each trade
  • Pick up a saved session where you left it

Can I replay the 1-minute chart?

Yes. The data underneath is 1-minute bars, so you can replay any timeframe from 1 minute up to daily, or type your own, such as 3 or 10 minutes. On Premium, intrabar mode also replays the 1-minute bars inside each larger candle, so you see how it formed.

Which markets can I replay?

Forex pairs and metals, such as gold, on the free plan. Premium adds crypto, stocks, indices, futures, commodities, ETFs and bonds.

Can I go back a few bars?

No. Like a live market, the replay only moves forward, so a trade can't be undone by rewinding. To study a move, slow the replay down or step one bar at a time. Saved sessions can be watched again from their review page.

Is this TradingView's bar replay?

No. BacktestingMax is a separate app and is not affiliated with TradingView. Its charts are built with TradingView's Lightweight Charts library, so they will look familiar.

Do I need to download anything?

No. BacktestingMax runs in your browser. Sign up, pick a pair and a date, and press Play.

Can I practice a prop firm challenge with the replay?

Yes. Choose Prop Firm Challenge when you start a session and the replay is judged against a firm's published rules: profit target, daily loss and maximum drawdown, ending in a pass or fail. It's free on forex and gold. See the prop firm simulator
