Why are my limit buy orders in Gold (GC) being filled above my price? The last time it was 0.5 above.

If you are referring to live trading activity, you need to contact your broker about this or the exchange.

If you are referring to simulated trading activity, refer to the documentation here:

It was live. Who generates the Position and Order report on Sierra display? That report says that I put in a stop limit buy at price 1338.1, which i did not (it was a limit buy). It also says it executed even though it did not get to 1338.1 and says it occurred at time 18:30 eastern even though the fill occurred at 18:00.

I don't know where the 1338.1 price came from.

Look at the Trade >> Trade Activity Log for the order in question. Here are the instructions:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_TradeActivityLog.php

You will want to look at the Order Action Source field to see what the source of the order was.



Also please contact your broker and ask them about this. For something like this, they are the first point of contact.
