Hello traders!
I would like to know a Market Replay issue. How is it posible to do a quicker market replay than 500x?
I realize to do a fast market replay is so difficult because the limitation of the program, but my strategies are tested in it and it's really important to me create a quicker benchmark.
Thank you in advance!!

Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Using Strategy Analizer I get so different results. Not for Level II, just for tick to tick analyzer.
I don't have a processor problem wit my computer. The problem is the limitation of the Market R. (500x). I would like get 1000x or 2000x or more! Is it possible modifying any parameter or properties in NT7?
In order to get closer to accurate backtesting results you will want to use a 1 Minute or 1 Range data series for your executions. Meaning your EnterLong/ExitLong or EnterShort/ExitShort statements should use one of these two data series while your indicators and strategy decisions operate on other data series.
mmm, yes, but my strategies are prepared to use it with some especific timeframe (and not Range). Depends of the candles or other market structure, the algorithm works better than others.
I'm afraid you're misunderstanding me. I will try to clarify.
Your strategy would use the specific time frames you require and your EnterLong/ExitLong/EnterShort/ExitShort statements would not use those specific time frames, they would use the 1 Minute time frame/data series.
In other words, in order to get "closer to accurate" backtesting results (there is no 100% accuracy) it is pretty much required that your strategy be a multi-time frame strategy in order to have your executions happen on a much smaller time frame than what your indicator decisions are based on.
For example, your indicators may make decisions on a 60 Minute time frame, but your executions (the EnterLong/ExitLong, etc. statements) should be specified to happen on a 1 Minute time frame/data series in order to get closer to accurate backtesting results.
Perhaps someone else can explain it better or more thoroughly than I.
