Is it possible to look one bar ahead while backtesting a strategy e.g. by using sc.Index+1 ?

If I need accurate execution of my entry and exit prices while backtesting I understood that Replay backtest is better than bar backtest.

Unfortunately Replay backtest is very slow and it takes hours for a backtest. Is there another way to optimize the fills ?
