Hi, I am backtesting a S&P future strategy in two different insatnces of SC and get very different results (10 day testing with c.30k profit difference). I tested with "AutoTrade SSystem Replay Backtest" and "Replay Chart". The backtest runs over 10 days. I subscribed to the Denali Realtime feed and using a IB account. SC Instance 1 is for live trading and SC Instance 2 is for backtesting only. Therefore I am using different data connection settings (pictures attached). Any idea what could cause the dfifference?
