Hello Support Team,

i got sierra chart new, and when i do a trade in Simulation it feels like the Orders arent filled the right time. When the Bid is on 3516 and i buy market 3516 he dont fill me. He waits till the market Tick down on 3515, but isnt logically ? And when i want to buy on the Bid for example on 3505 and the bid is on this price he need to get on 3504 on the bid to fill me. In the following you see a picture what i mean in this moment i klicked market Long at 3516 so there are 188 i dont get a fill he did nothing till the price gets down to 3515. Is this because of the simulation ? The problem with Limit and Market orders that they fill other than in live market ?
