How do I back the chart up then move it forward, one candle at a time.

Bob32014

I'd like to test some day-trading strategies by advancing the chart from an earlier time period.
Some charts let you do this with a right-click and a "grabbing-hand", to move the chart back-and-forth.
Anyway to do this on StockCharts?

For time frames below daily, e.g. hourly, five minutes, etc. you have to use ACP only. For daily and above, you can also use the "classic" or "new" workbench.

Go to ACP from the Member page by clicking on the grey StockchartsACP button/icon near the top left of the Members page.

On ACP, enter the symbol you want to use

Select the time frame you want to use, e.g 5 mins.

You can advance or regress the chart bar by bar with the little arrow icons that appear at the bottom of the chart in the center when you cursor over the chart.

You can also select any range you want to cover, not just the current day - use the drop down to find "select start/end" and enter a different date.
