So you are referring to the Position Average price. Is the Position Average price you see on the Trade Window the same as the Trade Service Average Price in Trade >> Trade Orders and Positions >> Positions for the symbol? If so, then that price is coming from Interactive Brokers.

Refer to this section here about the Average Position price:

The following change was recently made:

The Open Profit/Loss calculation for the Trade Position displayed on the Trade Window now uses the Bid and Ask prices instead of the last trade price. The Bid price is used for Long positions and the Ask price is used for Short positions.
