Hey folks,I have recently moved and had to change internet providers. My problem is I'm seeing a difference in my Sim trading results and replay results. Could my uplaod and download speeds be the problem? Never had this problem before.I attached a Thursdays Sim and replay trades
Thanks for the help

Unlikely that the bandwidth ("speed") has anything to do with it. Try going to pingtest.net and make sure you have a solid connection with no packet loss.

Are you connected to your router via wireless or wired?

What kind of problems are you seeing?

I just looked at your attachments. "Normal" NT behavior, I think. I used to see lots of inconsistencies, and while MR is useful, it is not perfect.

Hey Mike ,
Thanks for following up with this question.
To answear your question I was helping a member do some testing with the CL on the Sim as he trades another
instrument. I was giving him for a couple of weeks when we discovered a Big difference in my Sim results and the
replay he did one day on the CL. So my concern was I may have been giving him some bad data. I have checked
replay against my Sim results several times since then and have not had the big discrepancy since my post .
attached is the ping test you suggested. Thanks very much for the explanation of the upload and download speeds.

Vic

Your pingtest looks good.

Enjoy your weekend.
