Post From: Issues to replay on a new Intraday Chart

Hi Sergio, just sharing my experience with market replays. I prefer to use Linked charts for multi-chart replays instead of using "all charts in chartbook". With linking feature, make sure to select the relevant actions on what you are telling SC to sync. Dates, session times, symbol, etc... very powerful feature imo. Also, when replaying multicharts, it is crucial to ensure there is no "gaps" in data across all charts. You normally get into trouble i.e. paused replays when one chart has morning session and another chart has morning and evening sessions etc.

Also/ there seems to be some pausing with market replays when study collection has price overlay charts. It's complicated to fully understand or explain.

And lastly, with multi-chart replays, make sure any of your charts do not have "Date Exclude" under chart settings/chart data. Exclusion of dates could also causing pausing in some instances. And just to say it, pausing does not mean it's stuck or crashed. SC is trying to read/skip those missing data records during the chart syncing process. If you let it stay in pause, it will eventually "wake up" and continue with the replays. Weird and requires patience :-) Oh and also, "skipping" feature in market replays usually has not worked for me with multi-chart replays.

Nowadays, what I do is have a very simple "low load" single-strategy study collection to test a idea or strategy before I integrate it into my main collection with all the bells and whistles. This reduces my testing/replay times tremendously by running speeds at 900+.

Hope this helps.
