Hi,

when backtesting my strategies, i think about 2 things beeing pretty annoying.

when backtesting in visual mode one can choose between 8 speed lvls, but they arent weighted the same.

fastest lvl 8 ist WAY faster than the others, while even lvl 7 is too slow for longer periods, lvl 8 is too fast.

basically i wanna think about what decision may be the best in this situation, thinking like "i'm gonna let it run a few hours more to get more informations and then gonna make a prediction",
speed lvl 7 would take like 5-10 mins for this task

lvl 8 like 5 secs
it's soo fast : i'm missing the required situation nearly every time.

Fix would be a bless.

Other point: backtesting without visual mode is taking way too long. i thought about devolping my own backtesting class, but implementing it into your swing, is nearly impossible for an unexperienced java user like me.

Already created an easy backtesting method with some nice features for non-visual testing thats working way faster. I may upload it if there is interest in it.

Greets from Ger :D
