Hi. I am hoping to learn how to trade e-minis. I have a friend that has been trading ym for quite a while and he is showing me some basic information to get started. I don't want to lean on him too much so before I get started doing this I need to educate myself. I've been doing quite a bit of reading and just trying to get a basic education. I recently read about backtesting and was intrigued. Part of the strategy I am adopting is to paper trade for a whilel to get a feel for this and especially to understand charts. What I'd like to be able to do is to be able to go back into historic data and trade with a replay feature. I thought I saw something like that on think or swim. Is this what I think it is? It seems like a pretty handy way to practice basic trading when the market is closed. Are there other sites you could recommend. Are they free? I appreciate any help and I'm sure I'll be back with more questions on the basics. Thanks
