Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

I’ve received different results from 2 Replay’s in the same Chartbook, the Chartbook settings are:
Chart 1: 45 minute chart
Chart 2: 15 minute chart
Chart 2: 3 Study/Price Overlay studies that overlay information from Chart 1 into Chart 2
Chart 2: Has the Spreadsheet System for Trading


The settings for Replay 1 are:
All Charts in Chartbook
Calculate At Every Tick/Trade (High CPU Usage)
Checked: Use Start Date-Time
Unchecked: Skip Empty Periods
Checked Start Pause
Processing Step: 60


The settings for Replay 2 are:
All Charts in Chartbook
Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode
Checked: Use Start Date-Time
Unchecked: Skip Empty Periods
Checked Start Pause
Processing Step: 60


The only difference between the two Replay is the “Replay Mode”; “Calculate At Every Tick/Trade (High CPU Usage)” and “Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode”. Why are the results significantly different?

Thank you.

I've read both these webpages several times and I don't understand why these replays are different.

Can you please offer some suggestion?

They update the charts and calculate studies at different points in time. Therefore, you will have differences in studies at any given time, and your trading system could have different results based on these differences.
