Before your next practice session

Is this live trading?

The workflow shown here is historical Replay and simulated practice. A simulated fill or outcome is separate from actual broker execution.

Do I need to follow a particular strategy?

No. Use your own discretionary method. Record the plan, reasons and management choices you want to study.

What can I return to in review?

Where retained source and cutoff evidence can be verified, a saved decision can reopen its original chart and attachments. Later review remains a separate layer.

Which market data can I use?

Check available historical sources in your workspace, or import candles. This edition uses supported exchange derivatives sources; availability and history depend on each source. Connected Accounts and equity, forex and fund feeds are unavailable. FICTIONALUSD illustrates a workflow, not market availability.
