Gold (XAUUSD) backtesting and trading simulator
Replay gold candle by candle with real MetaTrader 5 data and practice your entries, stops and risk management without risking money.
Why practice gold in a simulator
Gold moves hard in the London and New York sessions and reacts to US data such as NFP, CPI and Fed decisions. Seeing that repeated under real conditions is the best way to learn not to trade through a news release.
Its intraday swings are wide, so poor position sizing is expensive. In Replay you can rehearse risk per trade and see its effect on your equity curve before touching a live or funded account.
You can compare the same strategy across timeframes, from 10 seconds to 4 hours, and check whether it has a real edge or was just luck over one stretch.
Frequently asked questions
Is the gold data real?
Yes. It is real MetaTrader 5 candles from January 2024, with the economic calendar so you can see which release moved the market at each moment.
Do I need money to practice?
No. Replay is a simulation: no broker and no real money. You can start free with no card.
Can it help me prepare for a funded account?
It lets you rehearse typical rules, such as daily loss limits and risk per trade, with your own strategy. It does not guarantee live results.
