Scanning through US Equities Exchange

I have followed the steps to import US equities symbols into a Watchlist and together with my custom Studies' Alert Condition.

I noticed that everytime I start the scan, even on a simple 3 days Day chart, the Scan function will run through so fast, that the download of historical data cannot catch up flashing on the chart.

i.e. When the scan runs, its based on the last bar that SC downloaded before, and while the chart refreshes to "Downloading Historical Data", the scan has already moved on to the next symbol. The chart candles cannot refresh fast enough to match the scanning.

How do I resolve this? Slow down the scan so that the downloading of historical data can catch up? There's around 200 symbols on the watchlist.
