Replay

Scrub back through a settled live day — a read-only review of the day you traded.

Replay is the read-only review of a live account's settled days. While a live day is open, the clock is the market's — there's no time travel. Once the day settles, the clock becomes yours: scrub back through the session to watch exactly how your positions, delta, and P&L evolved, moment by moment, and step through your orders and transactions as they happened.

Opening a replay

Replay is scoped to your active live account: pick any of its settled days from the calendar. A day appears here shortly after the 4:00 PM ET close — settlement completes a few minutes after the bell, once official closing prices are final, and the Replay view counts down until the day is ready to review.

The replay screen mirrors the live trading screen: the day's chart, the option chain at the selected moment, your positions, and the activity log of orders and transactions.

Scrubbing the clock

Move the clock anywhere between the open and the close, and every view recomputes for that moment: position marks, delta, P&L, and the chain's quotes. Everything is recomputed on the server from the session's market data — the review is a faithful mark-to-market of the day you actually traded, not a re-simulation.

A look back, not a redo

Replay is strictly read-only. You can't place, change, or cancel orders on a settled day, and nothing you do here changes the account — the day's results are already in its history. Your orders show exactly as they resolved: a fill stays a fill, a cancellation stays a cancellation.

Replay vs practice

Replay and practice both put a past day under a clock you control, but they answer different questions:

Replay Practice
Which days Days your live account traded and settled Any past trading day
Account Your live account, with its real balance history Account-less, fixed $100,000 sandbox
Orders Yours, exactly as they happened — frozen Fully editable — revise and re-run freely
Question it answers "What did I actually do, and how did it unfold?" "What would happen if…?"

Tips

  • Do the post-mortem the same day. Right after a session settles, replay it and scrub to your entries and exits. Seeing where the mid actually was when you clicked — while you still remember what you were thinking — is the highest-value ten minutes in the whole loop.
  • Re-trade the day in practice. After reviewing what you actually did, open the same date in practice and run the alternative you wish you'd taken. Replay shows you what happened; practice lets you test the counterfactual on the same data.
  • Scrub to your exits, not just your entries. Most 0DTE lessons live in the exit: watch how the position's delta and P&L moved in the minutes before you closed (or didn't), and ask whether the decision would survive a repeat.
