I'm not sure about this, but perhaps it can be done. What do you want to achieve, however; evaluating the behaviour of the trading strategy on historical bars with the Playback Mode, or submit orders in real-time while running the Playback Mode?

You're of course free to pursue the latter, but I think most on the forum would discourage you from doing so.

Or do you mean take the same strategy used in auto-trading and replay a prior period with that same strategy to watch the trades "as they happened." If you want to do this, sure, but you need to change things like marketposition_at_broker to marketposition, etc.
