Hello @ALI_ESLAMI,

If you have API Access, you already have an active funded account. If you don’t have access to the API yet, please follow [this guide](https://community.tradovate.com/t/how-do-i-access-the-api/2380).

Our Market Replay feature is available for anyone with an account. However, you need to use a WebSocket to connect to Market Replay using the API. the `initializeClock` endpoint will start a replay session which you will then have to listen to events from using that same WebSocket’s `onmessage` event.

I suspect that you probably want chart data and not Market Replay data. You can get chart data using a Market Data WebSocket. Follow [this guide](https://api.tradovate.com/#tag/Market-Data) from our official docs to setup a WebSocket that retrieves market data. Then use [this section](https://api.tradovate.com/#section/Request-Reference/Get-Chart) to learn about the `getChart` endpoint.
