Getting started

How is historical replay different from paper trading?

First, the short version

Historical replay uses a past market window and hides the bars that come next. Paper trading usually follows the current market as it unfolds. Replay lets you return to a comparable setup without waiting for it to appear again.

Who this is for

Choose replay when you want to repeat setups, compress time, or compare the same scenario after changing your decision rule.

What to take away

  • Replay is scenario practice; paper trading is live-market rehearsal.
  • Repeatability is the main benefit of replay.

How Zinuto helps

Pick a window

Zinuto lets you train on defined historical windows instead of waiting for the live market.

Contextual notes

Archives preserve the training record. Notes created from an archive or challenge result keep readable context and are organized separately in Notes.

What to watch

  • Replay still uses historical data; it does not recreate live liquidity.
  • A familiar scenario may feel easier after repetition; keep that in mind.

Next step

  • Use replay for pattern practice, then review whether your rule stayed consistent.
  • Do not treat repeated replay wins as live-market proof.

What is the difference between simulated trading and historical replay?Simulated trading describes the action: no real-money order is sent. Historical replay describes the data and timing: you work on past bars without seeing the next ones. Zinuto uses simulated actions inside a historical replay, then saves the session for review.Read guideWhat is K-line replay training?It means advancing through historical candles while the later chart stays hidden. You record the decision at the time, then compare it with what happened next. The value is the dated decision trail, not a forecast.Read guideIs Zinuto stock simulation and stock review software?Yes. Start with the bundled WIKI EOD equity sample or import compatible stock history. Replay the chart one bar at a time, record simulated decisions, and open the archive afterward. Every order stays inside Zinuto.Read guide

Start with one short replay

Pick a sample, hide the later bars, make a few decisions, and open the archive afterward. That single run shows how Zinuto records practice.
