Thanks for that, I have heard similar before, and I have had more consistent results with replay-based myself.
Interesting that you say attached orders don't work well on BB backtests - maybe that's my problem, the rest doesn't worry me.
The problem is that I want to test 10 stocks over a year of 39m charts, signals only on bar closes.

To do that in less than a day of computing I will need 3840+ replay speed, and I've been told that fast replays give false results too?
It doesn't allow watchlist scans either, but I guess I could open ten separate charts in the book...
How do you know if you've gone too fast? - I can't just turn it up to max can I?

P.S. Thanks for the dialogue - I'm working with a group teaching Algo.
We really want SC to work and be our main system, but we all still have lots to learn!
