Is there a way to make market replay go faster?

[Skechers]

It's very slow as it is, can it be sped up? Are there technical limitations? (Shouldn't be)

I would just like to speed through a month of replays without having to watch the bar progression.

Thanks, Caesar.

Not sure what you're doing or why you need market replay for an entire month but have you considered replay in bar mode or using tick replay instead of market replay?

And, of course, max speed market replay does go faster with a faster computer, or if you close some of the charts or remove some of the indicators you're driving with it. Perhaps you don't need them all for what you're doing the replay for, and it all adds up.

Hi Skechers, thanks for posting.

Typically the playback connection will slow down if there are multiple high demand indicators running in a large workspace. The first test would be: Open a new clean workspace, close all other workspaces, then test replay from a single blank chart and notice if performance is better. Please also see the NinjaScript Utilization Monitor for more performance information:

Many Thanks! Is there a way to set the Cash value of the Playback account? I'd like to test different instruments which have different margin requirements.

Hi, You can use the Accoun.Get method to get the cash value:

Thanks, I was actually inquiring about setting the cash value, not get the value :-) I found the answer by setting the cash value of SIM101 account.
