The replay back test time is affected by the speed of the computer and the Data/Trade Service Settings >> Intraday Data Storage Time Unit. So 15 minutes could very well seem about normal. Other question: in Bar Backtest, it seems like a) the fill info and lines connecting fills on the chart do not appear. I assume this is correct but want to verify.
We see these during a bar based back test. Make sure you have them enabled:For me, the Bar Backtest seems plenty accurate, but it doesn't provide the sort of visual feedback and detailed trade/fill/order info in the Trade Activity Log that Accurate Replay provide. https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ChartTrading.html#DisplayingOrderFills Here they are on a bar based back test we just did: http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?l=1432874802329.png And we could see them as the back test was running.
