Hi i have written to you 3 times regarding an issue I am having with Playback and am continuingly being ignored

I would appreciate at least something back from you since I am paying for the software. I would expect your Support to be just as excellent as your software

This is disappointing

Just so you are aware, we only see this single Support Board post from your account.

We do see an Account Support Ticket that was opened, in which you were informed to post to this Support Board, as the Account Support Tickets are for Account Related Issues.

This is what was in the Account Support Ticket:
Hi

I am at present using the SC playback to practice my trades on

In the insert, you will see that the Market Order chart and the VWAP chart are synchronized (sometimes there is latency). However, the Footprint and the DOM are nowhere near the prices shown on the the VWAP and Market Order charts.

My computer is not an issue as it has a good processor and I'm using 8 gig of RAM which is more than adequate. My wifi is fine between 50 - 100 MBPS so I believe the issue is not at my end

I have tried slowing down the playback, using less charts, even cancelled out any programmes running on my compute, anything to try to speed the lag up but have not succeeded

Any advice would be appreciated as I'm at a crucial juncture on my trading course and as it is at present I cannot use playback to practice my trading

Make sure you turn off the option for Skip Empty Periods. Refer to the following:

Hello

I am still having issues with playback and synchronization

I am using a core i3 intel processor and running Windows 10 - could this be the issue? As When running in real time I never have an issue

I can only assume its an issue with Sierra chart

As shown in insert only the VWAP and the Market profile are synchronized. The DOM, Footprint and the candlestick chart all show different prices

Please advise

Additionally, all of the charts being replayed must use the same Session Times and associated settings. This is mandatory.

And all the charts being replayed must have loaded into their charts, all of the data during the time range being replayed. This is mandatory. To load more or less data, refer to the Data Limiting tab of the Chart Settings window.

When a period of time is encountered in a chart where there is no trading, to quickly skip past it, increase the Replay Speed to a significantly higher setting or Jump Forward.

Also:

- Check 'Start Paused' so that all charts have their data loaded before you click Play.

- And read thru this to understand multi-chart synchronization during Replay:
