Post From: Trade simulation fill at current price rather than replay price

I am trying to use trade simulation mode during a replay but the fills I get are based on bid/ask at the current time rather than the replay time.

However, if I place a limit order to buy which happens to be below the current (not replay) bid/ask, or a limit order to sell above the current (not replay) bid/ask, then it is filled correctly when the replay reaches that price.

I have attached a trade activity log which shows this:

- The first fill is a buy limit order which is correctly filled at the replay price
- The second fill is a sell limit order which is filled at the current price rather than the replay price

I am very new to Sierra Chart so it is likely I have something configured incorrectly, although I have done my best to review the documentation before posting here.

My intention is to practice trading on the previous day.

I am using the current prerelease version: 2121 64-bit (31753:31754)
