I'm testing my strategy on demo account. Every time I use buy or sell stop order, my price slips for 5 thicks when filled. If use buy or sell market, then it slips for 4 thicks. Is there a way to fix this?
Thank you...

The first step is to review the information here:

This assumes that you are using Trade Simulation Mode. Are you?

Yes, I have Trade Simulation Mode On...if I try to trade on a Replay Chart, then everything seems to be ok. I suppose that this is how live trading looks like.
