Is it possible to run Replay Mode with advantages provided in Simulated Futures Trading Service, mainly I'm talking about Account balance tracking to analize my trading progress.

What i realize that trading with Simulated Futures Trading Service blocks Replay Mode and that is issue for me.

You can analyze your trading progress without an account balance. Account balance is just not necessary. You can look at your cumulative profit/loss:

This is not enough to analyze Money Management. I need a solution that will provide me with a fixed account balance and the ability to go back to a specific date and Play the market.
Is there any way to do it?

There is no account balance supported during a replay. This functionality does not exist.

I think you should create this functionality, replaying with real conditions will help to have an insight of account behaviour and trader behaviour in a very near what would be a real trading.

actually when I' using simulated service (with account), the buy and sell are done with real time value in a replay mode which does not make sens.

Thanks

+1 on this. Main reason: automated position sizing based on account balance. Can't backtest a strategy that uses $J$47. Unless there's another way to accomplish this?

As a workaround, you could calculate your own simulated accumulative acct balance using J11.
