Post From: Why would this signal still work based on passed bars?

So with the overlay-studies using a 240M on a 5M, I'm going to be 48-96 rows deep in my chart just to compare two 240 bar signals. Does that make sense? Is this going to throw off my backtesting / replay speed? The trade signals on the 5 min chart only occur in rows 3 or 4, so the overlaid 240 min signals will be there because 'Fill Blanks With Last Value' will be set to Yes. Rows below only affect performance if you have too many in a complex system. I've found that the default 1000 rows works well in most cases.
