Users are responsible for understanding the limitations of backtesting and simulation before relying on their results.

Backtesting and Trading Tools

What is backtesting?

Backtesting is the process of evaluating a trading strategy using historical market data.

It allows users to examine how a strategy might have performed under past market conditions and analyze hypothetical trades without placing actual orders in financial markets.

Backtesting can help users identify patterns, evaluate trading rules, and better understand the potential strengths and weaknesses of a strategy.

However, historical performance does not guarantee future results.

Can I test my own trading strategies?

ReplayBureau provides backtesting tools for testing trading ideas and strategies in a simulated environment.

Strategies are tested manually: you replay historical data and place simulated trades yourself. The available functionality depends on your account’s plan.

Users should review the available features on the website to determine which testing options are supported.

Does ReplayBureau support automated strategy testing?

No. ReplayBureau does not currently offer automated strategy testing or automated trading.

Backtesting in ReplayBureau is manual: you step through historical market data candle by candle and place simulated trades yourself.

If this changes, it will be described on ReplayBureau.com.

Can I manually backtest trades?

Yes. ReplayBureau includes manual backtesting functionality, allowing users to practise evaluating trading opportunities and analyzing hypothetical decisions using the platform’s available tools.

Manual testing can help users review their decision-making process and examine how different approaches perform against historical market movements.

Does ReplayBureau provide charts and analytics?

ReplayBureau includes charting and performance-analysis functionality to help users examine market movements and evaluate simulated trading activity.

The available charts, indicators, analytics, and performance statistics may depend on the features accessible through your plan.

These tools are intended to support analysis and education, not to guarantee profitable trading outcomes.

Historical and Live Market Data

Does ReplayBureau provide historical market data?

Yes. Historical market data is used within ReplayBureau’s backtesting functionality to help users study past market movements and evaluate trading strategies.

Data availability may depend on the instruments, time periods, and features supported by the platform.

Access to historical data is subject to applicable usage restrictions and any relevant third-party data licences.

Does ReplayBureau provide live market data?

ReplayBureau provides live market data for supported functionality.

Availability, coverage, and other data characteristics may vary depending on the relevant feature and data source. Please refer to the information provided on the website for the currently supported data.

Live market data does not mean that ReplayBureau executes real-money trades.

Can I redistribute historical data obtained from ReplayBureau?

No. Redistributing historical market data obtained through ReplayBureau is strictly prohibited unless you have the necessary written authorization and any required permissions from the relevant data providers.

You must not resell, republish, share, sublicense, or distribute historical datasets obtained through the platform without authorization.

Systematically extracting or downloading data to create an independent dataset for redistribution is also prohibited where it violates our Terms or applicable data licences.

Access to data through ReplayBureau does not grant ownership of that data or automatic permission to redistribute it.

Please refer to the Terms and Conditions for the complete rules regarding historical market data.

Paper Trading and Simulated Trading

What is paper trading?

Paper trading is a form of simulated trading that allows users to practise making trading decisions without using real money.

ReplayBureau’s paper-trading functionality allows users to practise in a simulated environment using the functionality made available through the platform.

It can help users explore trading ideas and review hypothetical performance without risking real trading capital through ReplayBureau.

Is the live paper-trading section actually live?

The live paper-trading section provides a simulated trading experience that may use live market data.

The word “live” refers to the market information or simulation experience, not to real-money order execution.

All trading activity conducted through ReplayBureau’s paper-trading functionality remains simulated.

Does paper trading use real money?

No. ReplayBureau’s paper trading does not use real money to execute trades.

Virtual balances, positions, orders, profits, and losses are simulated values. They do not represent actual funds held for you or transactions executed through a real brokerage account.

Can I withdraw paper-trading profits?

No. Paper-trading profits and virtual balances have no cash value and cannot be withdrawn, transferred into real money, or redeemed for payment.

ReplayBureau does not pay out simulated trading profits.

Is ReplayBureau a broker?

No. ReplayBureau is a backtesting and trading simulation platform, not a broker or brokerage service.

We do not hold users’ trading capital or execute real-money trades through the platform.

Users who choose to trade with real money elsewhere do so independently and are responsible for their own decisions.

Can paper-trading results guarantee success in real trading?

No. Simulated results cannot guarantee future profitability.

Actual market conditions may differ from the conditions represented in a simulation. Factors such as liquidity, execution delays, transaction costs, slippage, and market behavior can affect real-world performance.

Paper trading and backtesting should be treated as analytical tools rather than proof that a strategy will succeed in live markets.

Accounts and Account Security

Can multiple people share one ReplayBureau account?

No. Each ReplayBureau account is intended for use by one individual only.

Sharing login credentials, allowing another person to use your account, or transferring your account to someone else is prohibited.

Account sharing may result in access restrictions, suspension, or permanent termination in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Can I transfer or sell my account?

No. Accounts may not be sold, rented, leased, lent, or transferred to another individual without prior written authorization from ReplayBureau.

These restrictions help protect account security and maintain the integrity of the platform.

What should I do if someone accesses my account without permission?

If you suspect unauthorized access, take reasonable steps to secure your account and contact ReplayBureau through an available support channel.

Do not share your password or other sensitive login credentials when contacting support.

Can ReplayBureau suspend or ban my account?

Yes. ReplayBureau may restrict, suspend, or terminate accounts that violate the Terms and Conditions or compromise the security, integrity, or operation of the platform.

Examples include account sharing, unauthorized data redistribution, attempts to bypass security measures, and deliberate exploitation of bugs or vulnerabilities.

The action taken will depend on the circumstances and applicable legal requirements.

Bugs, Exploits, and Prohibited Activities

What should I do if I discover a bug?

If you encounter an unexpected error, glitch, or technical issue, please report it through one of our available support channels.

Can I get banned for exploiting a bug?

Yes. Deliberately exploiting bugs, glitches, or vulnerabilities is prohibited.

Depending on the severity of the incident, ReplayBureau may suspend your account, restrict access to features, or permanently ban your account.

Reporting a bug responsibly is the appropriate way to help maintain the platform.

Can I use bots, scripts, or scraping tools?

Automated activity must not be used to extract or redistribute historical market data without authorization, bypass platform restrictions, gain unauthorized access, or interfere with the operation of ReplayBureau.

Any use of automated tools that violates the Terms and Conditions or applicable third-party data licences is prohibited.

If you are unsure whether a particular activity is permitted, contact support before proceeding.
