Hello,
I'm wondering what computer upgrades you recommend to speed up market replay using spreadsheet auto trading. I use tick data. When I replay 6 charts for example as opposed to 3, chrome freezes up.I currently have an i7 processor, 8Gb ram and a SSD.

In general for a problem like this it would help to have additional CPU cores. More memory may also help.
