I am getting massive slippage with stops in SIM, often which don't even correlate with price. See screenshot with 2 limit orders and stops on CL this morning.

Yes I am, but I'm not sure what you sent relates to the large slippage. It just did it again with orders changed from stop limit to stop stop but price never fell that far so it doesn't explain the slippage by more than 100+ ticks as seen in the screenshot. I just experienced it again.

The problem would be with the Ask and Bid prices from the Transact server. One of those is just simply incorrect. If you look at the Order Action Source field, you can clearly see this. Be sure to widen that column.
