Hi, please have a look at my screenshot. With LMAX Demo, my limit orders get filled at a point far from the current price whether it's the take-profit on a position or the entry order. Is this a problem of LMAX because it's their demo account or of Sierra Chart? The entry and my manually initiated flattening of the position are marked with a green and a red arrow respectively. The green arrow is far away from the price. The trade should not have executed at the green arrow.

Do you notice a problem now? We cannot reproduce any problem like this at all: http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1533713041748.png And ultimately these orders are filled by LMAX.

To follow up: I know have an LMAX live account, and I can confirm that I no longer have this problem. Trades get executed as planned. The LMAX demo account, however, proved rather useless as stop and limit orders were executed at a price that did not correspond with the actual price of the instrument at that time. |

Okay for the record, these orders are filled by LMAX. But we have not heard about a problem like this before and could not reproduce.
