CandleScope presents an open-source desktop workbench for charting markets, replaying trades, backtesting strategies, and keeping a simulated trading journal.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-30 issue.

For: Independent traders testing and reviewing strategies
Worth noticing: Backtest examples specify 0.04% fees, one-tick slippage, and fills at candle close.

Field notes

The page presents desktop downloads for Windows, macOS, and Linux and identifies the project as GPL-3.0. Its sample backtest reports results alongside explicit assumptions: 0.04% fees, one-tick slippage, and candle-close fills. The MCP section says the feature is off by default, listens on 127.0.0.1, and excludes order placement, script execution, and file access.
