Hi,

I entered a live trade today on the MNQ (nasdaq micro E-mini) and the entry price doesn't make any sense.

I should have entered a long (bracket order) around 7670.00 (the price that was displayed at the moment of the trade) but I entered at 7689.00. As if there was at least 1 or 2 minutes of lagging in the data.

The trade (Long) was entered at 15:42:56.256. I attached two screenshots :

1.jpg shows the situation (which is non-sense) a few seconds after I entered the trade.
2.png has some additional notes that describe the situation.

I had a friend on the phone during the trade and he had the exact same price. So it's not coming from my internet connection.

It seems to happen on a regular basis when the market moves fast. I use CQG data and a volume chart.

What is this coming from? I made 26.75 points when I should have made around 47 points.

Thanks for your help.

If there is lagging data, then refer to help topic 4:
Prices / Data Falling Behind

You have to determine whether that was the case or not. We do not know. But if you tell us the time zone of the chart we can look at the market data at that time.
