For 7-10 days I have had inaccurate profit/loss while trading 1 minute chart on May, June and July crude contracts. I enter with 3 lot trade with stops at 8 ticks and targets at 8, 15,and 25 ticks. The problem is instead of my max loss per trade at $240 it will often register in the NPL that I lost $7000-8000 and my fills on these where $2.00 from where my bracket had placed them. I then clear trade simulation orders and data and start over but it repeats. It gives me accurate totals for a while and then the $7500 surprise. I have Version 2087 64-bit (30871) and using data from Transact. I have also closed Sierra and re-opened multiple times and could not find solution in the Sierra table of contents.
Thanks
