In the Chart Replay Mode select Calculate at Every Tick/Trade (High CPU Usage) It is a good idea to start at a slow Speed like 10x, before speeding it up. If you try to go too fast and there are a lot of calculations, you may see issues. Also, starting paused allows everything to catch up before you start debugging. |
