Post From: DOM and chart prices not matching!

I do have the "Historical Download Complete" setting on and am always aware of it, and it had finished in all 3 cases where the bars and DOM were not displaying current price correctly. Regardless, if this isn't some known issue, I'll chalk it up to an odd disconnection. Also, I'll make sure system time is set correctly. I remember something about giving Sierra Chart admin privileges when I first set up Sierra, and I would guess that doesn't change each time I update the client (I'm on version 2092, which I updated to today, so that's the only correlation I have to this issue).

Edit: I was referring to the Trade DOM, "P&L" column. I had entered around 75-77.25, and upon orders filling, the disconnection occurred. When Sierra automatically reconnected me, the DOM was 5-6 points lower, all charts were not showing the current candle, and prices were showing 5-6 points lower (matching the DOM).

Edit 2: I then "flattened" the position, since woah, price made a huge spike, and then looked at my DPL, which showed I took a loss.

Edit 3: the loss on the trade then prompted me to look at other brokers (TDA, IKBR) which showed prices still at where I entered. Sucks. But the bigger issue is this not happening again.
