Start Tick History Replay

Start the replay of historical tick data for backtest (Foundry only).

post

Starts the replay of previously fetched tick history for backtest execution. This method is only available in Foundry environments and will return an error in Trading environments. The replay drives the system identically to ticks arriving in a live trading environment, allowing the algo to operate off tick and derived/aggregate data as it would in live. In Foundry: Full Stack environments, replay is driven by the backtesting engine. In Foundry: Data Cloud Only environments, replay is driven by the user via this REST API.
