Post From: Move to Breakeven Stop Issue

The computer clock has no effect on this. It is the Chart Update Interval which had the most significant effect and the fact that the market was moving very fast. If the Chart Update interval was under 100 milliseconds, and the data was also being received with very minimal delay from the exchange, then it is much less likely there would have been a problem. And also based upon the time stamping we see in the Trade Activity Log your clock was more than off by 1.5 seconds but that was not relevant to the problem. There simply was too much price movement within a one second period of time and various order events occurring that led to the problem. And the solution you are implementing is to only use activity after the fill for the move to breakeven. Yes.Still though if the prices are delayed, then a delayed old price received after the fill can affect the move to breakeven functionality. It is not possible to filter out the delayed prices because it is not possible for Sierra Chart to know they are delayed to begin with. Especially in the case of Interactive Brokers. Trying to detect this is very inherently unreliable especially with subsecond precision which would absolutely be needed in this case. There is always going to be an element of risk with a fast-moving market which is extremely hard to remove without creating other problems.
