Trading Simulator
Replay real market history inside a full trading platform, not just a chart. Speed it up, skip the quiet hours, rewind a bad trade and take it again.
Free. No download. Runs in your browser. Requires an FX Blue account.
How the trading simulator works
A trading simulator replays real historical prices inside a trading platform, so you trade exactly as you would on a live account, without risking money.
- 01
Choose your markets and dates
Up to 10 markets, any recent date, one hour to 28 days. Set your deposit, leverage and spread.
- 02
Trade it like it is live
Prices tick inside every minute, not close to close, so orders fill where they really would have. The platform behaves as it does live.
- 03
Rewind, skip and replay
Run it faster, skip the dead hours, or rewind and replay the same minutes until you get the trade right.
What you can practise without risking money
Rewind the market and take the trade again
Rewind the market by a minute, an hour or a day. Your positions, balance and history roll back with it.
Skip the boring hours
Jump forward an hour, four hours or a day. No prices are sent during a skip, so your strategy does not trade through it.
Let the simulator pause itself
Auto-pause stops the replay when a stop loss or take profit is hit, or an order fills. Run it fast and miss nothing.
Trade up to 10 charts at once
Ten markets on one clock, on every timeframe from one minute to one week.
Practise a prop firm challenge before you pay for one
Set a profit target, a max drawdown and a daily loss limit. The simulator enforces them exactly as a funded account would.
Save a session and pick it up tomorrow
Save your trades, your balance and your place in the market, and load all three back tomorrow.
Most replay tools replay a chart. This one replays the whole platform.
A market replay that replaces the broker connection underneath the platform, not a chart widget bolted onto the side.
Three things separate it from a chart replay tool
- Your deal ticket, margin, account history and scripts all work.
- Orders fill on ticks inside each minute, not at candle closes.
- Rewind rolls your trades and balance back, not only the price.

What the simulator is not
Ticks inside each minute are simulated.
The high and low of every minute are real. The path between them is generated, so it is not tick-accurate for scalping.
One simulation covers up to 28 days.
Built for practice and for studying specific periods, not for backtesting years of history.
Spread is fixed at the level you choose.
No requotes, and no widening around news.
A few live-data widgets are switched off.
The economic calendar, news and sentiment tools show current data, which means nothing inside a simulation.
It is not an automated backtester.
You trade every decision yourself. To run an expert advisor over years of history, use the FX Blue Trading Simulator for MT4 and MT5 instead.
Pick a market, pick a week, and replay it
Free with an FX Blue account. Nothing to install.
