Post From: LMAX Demo - Trades initiated far from price

Hi, please have a look at my screenshot. With LMAX Demo, my limit orders get filled at a point far from the current price whether it's the take-profit on a position or the entry order. Is this a problem of LMAX because it's their demo account or of Sierra Chart?

The entry and my manually initiated flattening of the position are marked with a green and a red arrow respectively. The green arrow is far away from the price. The trade should not have executed at the green arrow.
