Could you build this?

Partial The rule engine and candle-replay UI are straightforward to vibe-code, but a credible simulator needs accurate historical tick or candle data for forex, gold, and indices.

What it would actually take: The UI and firm-rule engine can be built in a React or Svelte front end with a simple state machine that ends the attempt on rule breaches. The hard part is sourcing clean historical intraday data across instruments, which typically means buying a licensed feed (e.g., Dukascopy-style tick archives or a data vendor) and storing and replaying it efficiently. Accurate spread, slippage, and firm-specific rule nuances also benefit from someone who knows prop firm rulebooks well.
