I stand on Sierrachart's side that it works fine (BT / replay does exactly what's written in the documentation), if you want other else:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartStudyAndSystemProgrammers.php

You write:
i mean it is really slow with Accurate Back Testing Mode. lets say i want to test a year or two, 4 markets simultanously because the system is based on intermarket situations.
You want suggest Sierra to improve their program because you think it's slow to calculate your ATS. I understand that?


Programming does not mean knowing commands, but thinking as programmer. Understand that the back test is at the end of YOUR system.


You can program in c++ which follows from your posts. It is really such a problem to create this as a two phase program? which saves the situation to an external file from each market in one step, and then loads all of it in the next step into one chart and tests it without the load-calculation of each study. You have one chart, one study. Is it really so hard ? You have to think how to help yourself if the program doesn´t offer you what you want.

I'm (and others) waiting for a deeper inner measure that can do only Sierra: to support OpenGL, support multi-core or other system acceleration, develop such great things as 200 levels of depth or improve tradeslog (thanks for this) .... I think that's really important for all ...and not to solve unfinished work of individual devolepers.
