Simulating trading for a given day in the past

P

pollock

Hi,

I'm looking to simulate candlesticks from past days. So when I start the clock at 9:30 ET for a given day in the past, I'd like to see the 1 min candlesticks for the stocks I want. And to be able to trade them and see my pl

Is there any software that does this to your satisfaction?

Do you have any other suggestions? I've heard of DASTrader and Ninja but would like your suggestions. (I've tried Think Or Swim's OnDemand but it doesn't allow me to short as much as Interactive Brokers. TOS has a Hard-to-Borrow club. Also it doesn't really looks like a true to life candlestick.)

thanks!

Goal: To practice intraday trading simulating a trading day.

thanks!
