Re-trade real market days.
Tick for tick.

A browser-based replay simulator for daytraders. Practice your execution on the real tape — Level 2, halts and all — until being green is a habit.

The desk

Everything a real platform has.

retrader rebuilds the tools you trade with — the tape, the montage, the scanners, the blotter — wired to real historical data you can replay as many times as it takes.

Real tick-by-tick replay

Tape

A real past session, replayed tick for tick — the real consolidated tape and a real per-venue Level 2 montage. Not synthetic candles. The exact order flow that happened.

Fills that punish chasing

Model

Momentum and chase slippage, thin-book slippage, queue position. Halts and LULD fire when they actually did.

A review that grades you

Journal

Every round-trip auto-graded — MAE, MFE, slippage, capture %. Know how you traded, not just the P&L.

Scrub the tape

Control

Grab the tape or the slider and scrub the day; charts update live. Re-run a day until you nail it.

A real multi-window desk

Layout

Platform, charts, gainers/HOD scanners, blotter — synced windows. Your journal auto-saves across devices.

The reps that compound

You don’t read your way to good execution.

You drill it. Every card here is something retrader puts in front of you, on a real day, until it’s a habit.

How much of the move you actually kept. The number that separates a good read from a good trade.

Capture %

Maximum adverse excursion — the heat you took before it worked. Learn to size for the heat, not the hope.

MAE

Read the per-venue montage like the pros: where size is hiding, who’s refreshing, when the bid is real.

Level 2

How much of the move you actually kept. The number that separates a good read from a good trade.

Capture %

Maximum adverse excursion — the heat you took before it worked. Learn to size for the heat, not the hope.

MAE

Read the per-venue montage like the pros: where size is hiding, who’s refreshing, when the bid is real.

Level 2

Maximum favorable excursion — the best the trade ever offered. See the exit you left on the table.

MFE

What chasing actually costs versus the mid. Watch it add up, then learn to stop paying it.

Slippage

Where your order sits in line. Front of the book fills; back of the book watches it run without you.

Queue

Maximum favorable excursion — the best the trade ever offered. See the exit you left on the table.

MFE

What chasing actually costs versus the mid. Watch it add up, then learn to stop paying it.

Slippage

Where your order sits in line. Front of the book fills; back of the book watches it run without you.

Queue

The pause fires when it really did. Practice the re-open instead of freezing the first time it counts.

Halts / LULD

Feel the tape speed up before the break. Reps are how that becomes instinct instead of hindsight.

Time & Sales

Take the same day again. A/B your own decisions until the green one is the one you reach for.

The re-run
The origin story
“I built retrader for myself, to drill the days I kept fumbling. I’ve been green every day since I started using it.”

— the founder, an active low-float & IPO daytrader

That’s not a promise of returns — markets don’t work that way. It’s proof that the method works: enough honest reps on the real tape, with a journal that tells you the truth, and execution becomes a habit instead of a hope.

retrader is practice and education on historical data — not live trading, and not financial advice. Trading real markets carries real risk of loss.

FAQ

Straight answers.

Yes. retrader replays real historical trading days tick by tick — the real consolidated tape and a real per-venue Level 2 montage. It’s the order flow that actually happened, not a synthetic simulation.

No. retrader runs entirely in the browser. Open a day and start trading — nothing to download, nothing to configure.

No. Everything is practice on historical data, so there’s no real money at risk and nothing to lose. It’s a training tool — education and reps, not live execution or financial advice.

US equities, with a focus on the active small-caps — low-float runners and IPOs — where the tape moves fast. That speed is the point: it’s where execution reps matter most.

As many times as you want. Days are processed once and cached, so re-practicing is instant and free. Run a setup until you nail it, then A/B your own decisions.

Automatically. Every round-trip is graded and stored to your account, and it follows you across devices — open the same journal on any machine.
