would like to run tick by tick simulation
which is better to run in terms of speed, memory etc.

1. one chartbook with 35 charts
2. five chartbooks with 7 charts each

another question, I find inconsistency between different speeds of replay (using trailing stops for example and different orderbook metrics), do you have any idea where I should start looking?

Good question. Since only one chartbook is visible at one time, having more chartbooks running will offload some resources needed for the display, as the hidden ones only do background processing. If you decide to test these I would be interested in your findings. Also, you can test multiple instances, as they can run on different cores of you processor.

Start by using the Accurate Trading System Backtest Mode. Try slowing things down and see if things change. Take a specific trade and replay it at 1x, 10x, etc.
