Thank you 1+1=10 for the detailed response! Lots of great info and I will try the Simulated Futures Trading Service, which I didn't know could be useful here.

My (Global) chart update interval was 500ms because that is what SC recommends. What should I set it to on the backtest chart? 20ms?

Here are the other changes I made following your last link:
Global Settings >> Sierra Chart Server Settings:
Remote Buffer Delay Send Time in Milliseconds 100 (was 0)
Use Real-time Data Compression: High Compression (was Standard Compression)
