The question is completely dependent upon the behavior of your trading system. There are no changes in the behavior of a back test in Sierra Chart regarding the replay speed. But the trading system can be affected in ways which we do not understand. It is up to you to determine how your trading system will behave with increasing replay speeds. We do not know. The result should be the same as long as your trading system is completely stable in the way that it behaves: In other words, if I run the exact same strategy with a **Speed** of **1** and then with a **Speed** of **1000**, should I expect the results to be identical, or can higher speed settings reduce the accuracy of the simulation?
