since i´m trading also the 5sec chart, this really slows down the jforex platform. i see a simply solution, like in mt4 to reduce the bars shown in the chart. please implement this option into jforex.

in metetrader there is a function to reduce the shown bars back inside the chart, i.e. when you input 400 and you´re in the 1min chart, you get 400min/ 400 candles shown. not more. when using 5 sec charts for example the unreduces candle history slows down jforex, please try it

Why don't you just run the test with visual mode turned off? Another thing you could do is start the test on x1, pause the test, zoom out on the chart so it's only showing H1 or something similar, move the speed up to max, then unpause. The slowdown you're experiencing has to do with you leaving the chart on default settings when your strat starts.

Yikes. When I run at normal (live) speed, it runs fine, but I get the same speed issues if I try to test a strategy at a high speed. The worst problems occurred at points where my strategy was closing a large number of orders at the same time.
