Import FX Replay Trades to Vigil

FX Replay is a forex backtesting and replay simulator. It lets traders practice on historical data tick by tick. It is not a live trading journal -- it exports simulated session results.

Reviewed against current importer coverage on Apr 2, 2026. This guide is indexable because the export path, expected fields, and common breakpoints are specific enough to help a trader verify a real import before saving it.

What Job Is This Guide Actually Solving?

The job is not just moving a FX Replay export into another dashboard. The job is preserving enough execution detail that you can audit old trades, verify risk decisions, and trust the imported history after the first pass.

FX Replay already stores the trades. This guide helps you verify whether the exported history keeps the fields Vigil needs for behavioral audit, rule checks, and clean historical review.

What FX Replay Import Gives You

Your FX Replay history already has the trades. What it does not have is a second opinion. Vigil runs every imported trade through an AI audit that checks entries, exits, position sizing, and timing against your prop firm rules -- then tells you exactly which trades would have blown your account.

Parsing happens entirely in your browser. Your FX Replay file never touches a server. FX Replay exports are clean (7 columns), so the import is fast and rarely needs manual correction.

Who this import guide is for

Best for traders migrating an existing journal into Vigil so they can audit historical behavior instead of rebuilding a log from scratch.

What to verify after import

Expect core trade fields to transfer more reliably than custom notes, tags, or platform-specific annotations. Review the parsed result before assuming every workflow artifact came across intact.

  • --Export format reflected on this page: CSV
  • --7 common columns mapped from FX Replay
  • --3 documented quirks for this format
  • --4 concrete export steps listed
How should you evaluate this import?

- Does your FX Replay export preserve the exact fields Vigil needs, starting with Date, Symbol, Direction, Entry Price?

- Are Date values consistent enough that you can verify one known trade before saving the import?

- Do the quirks on this page match the file you are holding, or are you relying on a different export mode than the one this guide describes?

What evidence should survive the import?

- Direction, symbol, size, and realized P&L match the original FX Replay file after parsing.

- Date survives in a format you can sanity-check against one real trade from the source platform.

- Partial fills, commissions, swap, or grouped executions are reviewed before you trust the imported totals.

What usually breaks in FX Replay exports?
  • --Data is from simulated replay sessions, not live trading.
  • --Forex pairs only -- no futures, indices, or commodities.
  • --Direction uses Buy/Sell naming convention.
  • --Journal exports can preserve summary trades while dropping the context that explains why the trade was taken. Review the parsed rows before assuming your old workflow survived intact.
What should you check before trusting the import?

- Spot-check one winning trade and one losing trade before saving the import.

- Confirm the importer did not flatten a format-specific edge case into a generic row.

- Use this page as the pre-flight checklist before trusting the imported history.
