I have used the replay feature successfully for several months but it would never work smoothly if I went back more than 60 days. Now if I go back more than 3 days it is so choppy it is unusable. I don't think I changed anything. Please advise.

Are you replaying multiple charts or one chart? What Replay Mode are you using?

I am only replaying MNQ but I have 4 charts with different time frames. Even when I set it to single chart it doesn't help. I am in Standard Replay mode.

Check your intraday data storage time unit, as this would affect how the data loads if it is not set to "1 tick":
Data/Trade Service Settings: Intraday Data Storage Time Unit (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Settings)

In the case of a Continuous Futures Contract, make sure you know what contract month you are replaying:
Continuous Futures Contract Charts: Displaying Rollover Transition Times and Contract Months

It may be an inactive Contract month.

I switched to continuous futures contract-date rule rollover and this seems to have solved the problem. Thank you for your help!
