Market Data Replay

Market replay is a great way to learn about trading without risking your money. This feature is especially important for discretionary traders who use price patterns and other methods, which are difficult to incorporate into trading models and strategy trading.

Speed up or slow down the market

Market data replay can playback historical data at any speed. You have complete control over how quickly market changes are displayed. For example, you can playback a month of minute data in just a few seconds.

You can jump several seconds, minutes, or days—both backward and forward in time. You can even specify an exact starting location for market playback by simply clicking it on the chart.

Recreate market details like nobody else can

We are confident that our trading software has the best market playback in the industry. In addition to all features that other charting software offers, MultiCharts allows tick-by-tick replay. In essence, this recreates a complete real-time market picture.

True Simulation
Our goal was to create a simulation that resembles real-time trading as closely as possible. If you are playing back minute data, other trading software simply draws minute bar after minute bar, while losing the information about how it was created. MultiCharts constructs each minute bar out of ticks to reflect actual price movements within each minute. MultiCharts can also recalculate your chart indicators on each tick, keeping you synchronized with the real market situation. As a result, you will not lose out on opportunities that exist within bars, so you can make realistic decisions as if you traveled to the past.

Toolbar controls at your fingertips

All market playback controls are located on a conveniently located toolbar. You can specify the exact starting location, choose which base resolution will be used for chart playback, and control rewinding and fast-forwarding—all with a single click.

Jump back and forth instantly

You can jump any number of ticks backward and forward on your intraday charts. For example, you might be playing back the S&P 500 and witnessing a slow market. You could easily skip forward until you see activity, instead of wasting your time waiting.

Play several symbols at once

Ability to playback charts with multiple data series is very important. All symbols will be precisely synchronized according to time, so you get an exact picture of how data arrived throughout the day. Let’s say you have several symbols, even from different data providers, all on the same chart. You want to see how their price movements correlate to each other. This opens up new possibilities of analysis, new insight.

Global playback for any symbol

Global Mode gives you the ability to playback an instrument in several places at once. For example, you might want to watch the Market Scanner and each of the charts where you're following Google. Starting point, base resolution, and playback speed will be the same in all the windows that you are playing back.

Global Mode
Imagine that you have Google plotted in several charts, but each window has different technical indicators and strategies. With Global Mode you can replay all the charts at the same time and see how different studies are performing.
