How to Use Bar-by-Bar Rewind

Overview

Made a mistake or want to review price action? Bar-by-Bar Rewind lets you step backward one candle at a time with a single click or shortcut.

Unlike the full Replay Mode, which required right-clicking and jumping back manually, this tool gives you a faster, smoother way to rewind just a few candles — without losing your place or breaking your flow.

⚡ Why Bar-by-Bar Rewind Matters

Backtesting isn’t always linear — sometimes you need to pause, rewind a couple steps, and re-evaluate.

Before Bar-by-Bar Rewind

  • Rewinding required right-clicking and using full Replay Mode.
  • This often meant losing your place.
  • It felt clunky for small adjustments.

With Bar-by-Bar Rewind

  • You can move back one candle at a time.
  • Price action, indicators, and trades all adjust instantly.
  • Your testing momentum stays intact.

👉 Perfect for moments when you:

  • Entered too soon
  • Missed something important
  • Want to rewatch how price developed

⚙️ How It Works

1. Enable Replay Mode in Settings

  • Go to Account Settings
  • Toggle Replay Mode → ON
  • This activates the rewind/forward step buttons in your backtesting UI.

2. Click the Rewind Button

  • Located on the Price Skipper bar, to the left of Play/Pause.
  • Each click = one candle backward.

3. Watch the Chart Update

  • Price, indicators, drawings, and trade visibility adjust instantly.
  • Resume forward play anytime to continue your session.

📝 Important Notes

  • Works best with one chart and one asset selected.
  • May lag with multiple charts/assets open (optimizations coming).
  • The rewind step follows your Price Skipper interval:
    • Example: If set to 1h, each click rewinds one hour candle.
    • If set to 15m, each click rewinds one 15-minute candle.
