yes i am running multiple chart backtests on version 1800 or 1830 Therefore, it does relate to this which is in the documentation:When you have enabled Charts to Replay >> All Charts in Chartbook | Charts with Same Link Number and you are using Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode, then in this case there is a multiple chart synchronized replay being performed.
Therefore, in the case of a multiple chart synchronized replay, prior to version 1863, the studies are not called/calculated whenever the High, Low, or Last prices of the current bar changes or there is a new bar added to the chart during the processing of the data records in the Intraday chart data file. Instead the studies are called/calculated after a specific amount of data based upon time, the default is 60 seconds, has been read from the Intraday data file into the chart. At that time the study functions are calculated on the chart. For more information, refer to the Auto Trade System Back Testing page. This amount of time is prompted for when the replay is started during a multiple chart synchronized replay with the Enter Processing Step in Seconds prompt. So update to the current version and the issue will be resolved for you. Or you should change the Enter Processing Step in Seconds to a small value like 1 second.
