Post From: Processing Step In Seconds

backtest will treat trades as if I was using 1 min bars (or 30, 15, 10, 5 and 1 sec bars) regardless of the 3-min bar constant setting? As each chart gets calculated during a back test the amount of data processed at each chart calculation is going to be as you set. So when the automated trading system is looking at the data from its own chart and other charts, it is going to be seeing a different state of the three-minute bars depending upon the processing step. The setting of this option is also going to be relevant when replaying multiple charts: General Settings Window: Use Controlled Order Chart Updating (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Charts >> Charts) Also, the clear trade log is still erratic; does not always work. The answer to this is explained here:Trade Activity Log: Trade Activity Not Displaying or Clearing (Improving Trade Activity Query Performance) It cannot be erratic. There cannot be a problem with the clear operation not working. Potentially there could be a problem where the visible Trade Activity Log perhaps does not refresh but you can do that with Edit >> Refresh Log. If you do that, and then you see the entries cleared, then the log just did not refresh and we need to look into that. However , keep in mind the clear operation can take time and you have to use that Refresh Log command sometime after the clear operation completes in the background. If you then notice the entries cleared, then there was a problem with it not refreshing. We are not aware that this issue does exist, but it is something we have to consider.
