Why does setting up different settings for "Processing Step In Seconds" yields different trading backtest results? Your explanations within the site make clear that chart and signal processing is exactly the same and that the only variance is the batch size for efficiency purposes.

I'm using the latest version available (2230) with Accurate Trading System BackTest Mode. Testing ES continuous contract from April 2020 to today; 2 charts and 8 standard SC indicators on 3-min bars.

Results won't vary using different speed levels, Charts With Same Link Number or All Charts in Chartbook. Only the processing step is impacting results: reducing processing step yields more trades AND the trades entered have slight entry/exit times and levels.

Data settings are set to 1 tick.

Which setting to trust and why?
