those are all fine so i should say that its not accumulating days so when i start and stop a day it resets and doesn't cautiously stack days like 30 days in a row so i can get a lump record log it rests and does only one day at a time when i stop the replay how do i change that to record until i manually reset it?

If you are running a replay, then when the replay starts and you are prompted with what to do about the existing trading data, are you selecting the option for "Clear All Trade Data for Symbol and Account"? If so, then you are deleting all the trade data for that symbol and account, so any previous trades done would be deleted.

What option do you select for what to do with the trading data when you start a replay?

When you start the replay, you are prompted about what to do about the Trade Data. In particular, you are given these three options: - Do Not Clear Trade Data for Symbol and Account - Clear All Trade Data for Symbol and Account - Clear Trade Data from Start Date-Time for Symbol and Account Which of these are you selecting?

If you are not seeing the prompt described in post #8, then that is not the issue.
