Re: Your first question:
Suggestion:
- Don't use columns L,N for exits; check the Trade Window's 'Use Attached Orders'.
- Use J80/J81 to set your Attached Orders target/stop offsets. (These are in points, not ticks.)
- To see your entry and exits after a backtest, go to Trade >> Show Order Fills.

Re: Your second question:
IMO, the most accurate backtest is the Replay Chart, using Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode, at a speed that doesn't lag your video card.
The slowest speed will be the most accurate.
