Inaccurate trade fill markers on chart on sim

Hello I am using sim to get familiar with trading in sierra charts.

When I submit a market order it shows it got filled and starts counting the P/L points so I know it is getting filled.

The problem is that the fill markers are not staying in the HL bar where they got filled, they are moving to other bars and sometimes even on places in the charts without bars.

I am using volume based HL bars so I don't know if time has something to do with how they display.

For example I get in short at a HLbar at 9:45:37 and the fill marker displays in that bar at first. But then the next volume bar is created at 9:46:14 and it moves the fill marker from the previous 9:45:37 bar that I was filled to the new volume bar 9:46:14 that was just created even though my fill was in the previous bar 9:45:37.

Does this usually happen with volume based bars?

Thank you
