Replay trades from history

Hi,

I have done some research and couldn't find an EA or other piece of software (commercial or not) that has the ability to visually replay trades taking input from an MT4 platform trade history, HTML trade report or CSV exported history file. I think it would be useful to study our own (and others') past trades. Does anybody know about the existence (or not) of such program? I would engage in a group project to write one. I cannot promise a full time commitment but I can contribute. I wouldn't like the project to turn into the making of a commercial product, but rather be kept as an open source shared effort / shared results kind of enterprise. I appreciate any input from the trading community. Regards and good trading to all.

Open up your account history, pick a trade that you want to review left click and drag it onto the chart. The trade is highlighted on the chart showing open/close for the time period in question.

Peter, thank you for the reply. It is an interesting feature I hadn't noted in the MT4 platform.

I was thinking about the possibility of watching our own trades being replayed on the screen by an EA, exactly as in the visual mode of the tester, so we could "witness" and study our own past mistakes and hopefully learn something from them. Anyway, thanks again for your tip.

Any update on that ? Is it possible ?

I think it's possible but I don't know of any update on that, sorry.

I think this trading simulator would do what you want. It's a free app from FXBlue.
