1. Yes. Are you referring to Intraday charts or Historical Daily charts? 2. Once you run a back test, the trading activity is automatically saved and can be viewed at any time. You can export it: Trade Activity Log: Importing and Exporting Data And you can change the trade account and run another back test and then keep the original results: Auto Trade System Back Testing: Running Multiple Back Tests For Comparisons Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

What does the 128 refer to? This is not clear for us. When you say "condition", this is still just not clear for us.
