Bar replay + trading journal · futures & forex
Replay NQ, ES or EURUSD one candle at a time, take trades with realistic fills, and every trade lands in your journal with its chart. It runs on your own PC, so it's fast and your data stays yours.
From $15 a month. Cancel anytime. Windows app.
Why Replaybook
Most traders replay on a chart platform, then copy trades into a separate journal by hand. Replaybook does both, at a price that makes daily practice easy to keep up.
Every timeframe is built from the same 1-minute candles, so the candle that is still forming is exact on 5m, 1H or daily. News numbers appear only after the release time.
Entries, exits, R, the setup and a chart screenshot go straight into the journal. Add your plan, your review and your mistakes, then find patterns in the stats.
P&L in dollars per contract and ticks, CME session times, RTH or full session, continuous contracts with roll dates. Forex works too, with spread and pips.
The app and your journal live on your computer. No upload, no waiting on a website, and it keeps working without internet once your data is downloaded.
Features
Pick any day, jump to the New York open, and step forward one candle or one minute at a time. Press play at the speed you like and let it pause when your order fills.
A calendar of green and red days, every trade with its chart, and space for your pre-market plan and end-of-day review. Rate the day, tag mistakes and what you did right.
Win rate, profit factor, expectancy, average R, drawdown and your equity curve. Then filter: which setup, which weekday, which session, and whether you followed your rules.
Write each setup and its rules once. Before every trade, pick the setup and tick the rules in the order ticket. The playbook then shows whether following your rules pays.
Chart tools
A color and fill per level, CC lines between chosen levels, and Shift to draw it perfectly flat.
Rectangles for order blocks and gaps, with the 50% line (CE) and your own label.
Drag out stop and target, see R:R and dollars, and place the order in one click.
An alert line pauses the replay when price reaches it, so you never skip past your level.
Hold Shift to measure points, ticks, percent, dollars per contract and time.
Asia, London and New York boxes, VWAP, moving averages, previous day high and low.
Save a style once and reuse it. The magnet snaps to highs, lows, opens and closes.
Import the calendar once; red-folder news shows as lines on the chart at the right time.
Ctrl+Z, copy and paste drawings, hide them all for a clean look at price.
How it works
Forex and CFD candles download for free inside the app. For CME futures, connect your own Databento account: the app shows the cost before it downloads and never downloads a month twice. Or import your own 1-minute CSV.
Start a backtest session with a symbol, a start date and a balance. Step through the open, mark your levels, and trade from the ticket or the chart.
Write your review, look at the day's chart, and check the stats by setup and by rule. Then replay the next day.
