I was backtesting and when i used 250 value for bar processing increment i got different result while when i change the value i got different result in trade statistics. What does it actually mean , for eg: we say 250 then i read in sierra it says it process 250 bars once at a time. What is the best practice for this, should i keep the default value i.e 250? how does it work for live trading? |

What version of Sierra Chart are you running? Make sure you are running the current version of Sierra Chart. And is this a multiple chart back test you are doing? Or are you just replaying one chart. The processing of data during live trading is different.
