Finish one replay sitting — then stop decorating
After install, judge the first sitting by one finished local session — not themes, indicators, or Strategy Tester.
Blog
Practical FX replay tutorials — education first, no live order tips.
Practice
CSV date and time were rejected
2 min
The refusal is one sentence on Get market data. Fix that file. Do not invent three clocks.
Practice
A losing streak is multiplication, not a cue to size up
3 min
Write the product of the last streak. Do not raise size because the last tickets lost.
Practice
After the close, is the bar getting longer or shorter
6 min
After a closed MACD bar, longer means pressure is building and shorter means it is fading. Four colors name those states. Not a buy or sell script.
Practice
If the small timeframe looks right and the large one disagrees, pass
7 min
A clean M15 against a fighting H4 is a skip. The rule is closed-bar EMA 21/55 and RSI(14), at least two of M15, H1, and H4.
Cloud bar replay shows the next bar when the timeframe changes
9 min
This page is the timeframe switch on a cloud replay. Plan depth and the cells we lose are on the selection page.
Practice
TradingView export chart data is not a replay
1 min
Local Training after import. Their export button is not in this screenshot.
Practice
Crypto replay: Bitcoin H1 stays on the PC
3 min
Crypto replay is local files plus one BTCUSDT record. No exchange key.
Practice
Count gold pip value before you replay
3 min
Turn gold pip value into dollars first. The four system lines live on the London first-hour sitting. This page only counts pips.
Practice
How to trade forex
3 min
How to trade forex: write a system, finish one sitting, write size after invalidation.
Practice
Forex manual backtest: with hindsight and without
3 min
Dragging the chart shows the right side. Stepping one EURUSD sitting to the end is a forex manual backtest.
Practice
A bitcoin trading system: the first swing high is the line
3 min
A bitcoin trading system is four lines from one BTCUSDT H1 sitting. No ticket.
Practice
A gold trading system: the first London hour is the stop
3 min
A gold trading system is four lines from one finished XAUUSD H1 sitting. No ticket.
Practice
A forex trading system: the first EURUSD hour is the stop
3 min
A forex trading system is four lines from one finished EURUSD H1 sitting. No ticket.
Practice
A trend is closed swings, not a sloping average
3 min
Count closed swings. A sloping average is a calculation, not a run of highs and lows.
Offline CSV desks — and when Pull is enough
5 min
ChartScope-class tools win when any OHLCV CSV and zero-network practice are the job. Our Free path starts with Pull EURUSD after sign-in.
One rejected file — then stop downloading
6 min
A HistData import error is one file's dialect, or a normal weekend pause. Clean that file. Do not download five more months.
One Ready EURUSD series — then open Training
5 min
Success is one Ready EURUSD series and one finished Training — not a Downloads folder full of HistData zips.
Practice
Export MetaTrader history and replay the CSV
2 min
Import the text. Source reads ft_txt. Then start Training on that series.
Practice
If the higher timeframe is a range, pass the middle
4 min
If the higher timeframe is a box, pass the 15-minute break in the middle. Work the edges after a close, or wait.
Start practice without renting a tick pack
9 min
This page is the data bill. Super Data is extra. The license-versus-seat table is on the selection page.
Practice without opening a MetaTrader terminal
8 min
This page is whether practice has to open a broker terminal. The price table and the cells we lose are on the selection page.
How to Backtest Without Hindsight Bias: The Case for Blind Market Replay
8 min
Blind backtesting draws a random 90-180 day window and hides the symbol name and calendar. Prices stay visible. Score the checklist. Leave the paper balance out of the grade.
Cloud feed in the browser — or files on your machine
7 min
Keep FX Replay if the browser tab is the classroom. Leave if you want a local Windows desk plus a handbook on the same seat.
Practice
Send a student the same chart to practice
2 min
A file from Save as drill pack. They open it with Open drill pack. Not a download button here.
What the chart plan bills next to a seat
5 min
TradingView's annual cards list Essential at $12.95 a month and Plus at $29.95. A Standard year on this desk is $150. Minute replay on their compare grid starts on the paid columns.
Practice
When RSI and MACD disagree, I pass
3 min
If I cannot see both panes, I cannot pick a winner. If both are on and they disagree, I pass. This sitting has RSI 64.58 and no MACD.
Six months of minutes, or a candle that already closed
9 min
Bar Replay steps one closed candle forward. You cannot take back a judgment already spent on that close. Depth is a plan meter. A Windows desk is a different seat.
What $109 once costs next to a seat that renews
5 min
Soft4FX lists a lifetime license at $109 plus tax. A Standard year is $150. Seven months at $15 is still under that list price. The eighth month is not. This page is the cash line only.
An average is not a direction
3 min
A moving average is the average of closes that already printed. Crossing it is not an order. One line on this GBPUSD M15 sitting.
A level needs a closed swing
4 min
A level is a closed swing. The low at 09:00 is not a level at 09:00. Five closed hours to the right have to stay above it.
After the invalidation, is the target even worth it
3 min
After the invalidation distance is on the page, compare the target with it. If the target is closer, pass. Do not move the stop to dress up the ratio.
Three checks before I keep a divergence line
5 min
Price made a lower low. DIF made a higher low. Both lines stayed below zero, DIF crossed above the signal, and the rebound cleared the higher DIF low. That is the line. It is not an order.
Write where you are wrong first, then talk about size
7 min
Write the price that proves you wrong. Size from a fraction of equity you already wrote down. The fractal is the anchor, not the trade.
One bar forward, and no key to undo it
6 min
Bar Replay’s published hotkeys move you forward. If one extra bar ruins the rep, that is the decision — not a new chart theme.
Release
Desktop 0.1.3 — drill packs, four timeframes, and a trade-review clip
3 min
Windows 0.1.3 is the current public build. Double-click a pack to start. Export a short review clip. Four timeframes sit on one screen, with MAE on the review. 0.1.2 still runs.
Same brand name. Two different products.
5 min
Same brand name on MQL5 Market and on the website does not mean the same product. One layer can fire live orders. The other is a local training desk.
Open a session — then move one bar
5 min
A first replay loop is one Training session you can Play, Pause, Step, and End. Decorating the chart is tomorrow’s job.
Pull EURUSD — Free starts after sign-in
6 min
Free EURUSD on this desk starts after a BarionQuant sign-in. Browser tools that need no account are a different path.
The chart you click is still the terminal
8 min
Plugin replay stays on the MetaTrader chart it was dragged onto. Click that chart and their hotkeys stop. An MT4 save will not load on MT5.
A reputation prompt is not a scanner block
6 min
An unsigned Windows setup can raise a SmartScreen reputation prompt. A plugin an antivirus stops is a different failure. Leave both protections on.
The demo clock, and a tape you can run again
5 min
A broker demo runs on the live clock. Replay runs a past tape again. Those are different classrooms, and neither one is a broker.
How to Practice Crypto Trading Offline: Local Binance Chart Replay
7 min
Binance USD-M bars stay on the PC. Free covers the latest BTC and ETH month on H1 and D1. Older months, SOL, and 1-minute bars sit on paid seats. Windows desktop. Not a broker.
Desktop 0.1.2 — free gold and crypto majors on the practice desk
3 min
Windows 0.1.2 is live. Free can train gold and major crypto. Older Windows clients are asked to update. Practice stays local and simulated.
Skip the MetaTrader install — or accept it
6 min
Soft4FX starts after MetaTrader is already on the machine. If you will not install that terminal, you need a different desk — not a better plugin.
Score the sitting — glance at P&L last
4 min
Practiced well means you can score the process after a local replay — pretty simulated P&L is the last glance, not the grade.
Gold on the chart is practice — not a gold account
5 min
XAUUSD or gold on a local replay chart is still simulated practice — not a broker account, deposit, or live ticket.
Repeat the tape — then touch a live feed
5 min
Local replay first means the same bars can repeat — so you can tell process from luck before you touch a live feed.
