Hi,

I'm currently using spreadsheet do back testing. I'm using replay backtest which is tick by tick.

Speed varies from 2-8 hours processed every 4 seconds.

If I use ACSIL, how much speed improvement should I expect?

Also, are these speeds normal? This is the first time I'm doing backtesting.

Thanks.

Definitely using ACSIL will bring a significant speed improvement but it is hard for us to say. We would think 50% or more but we cannot make any promise and it also depends upon the efficiency of the study that you create. So it largely depends upon what you are doing and how you have programmed it.
