Thank you guys for any help on this issue. Two things happened to me that i need to figure out how to fix.
This morning i had a sell limit order set on the ES and right as it was triggered the entry line automatically moved down 4 points on ES futures market. Ive never seen this happen before. So right when the sell limit was filled and started moving down in my favor, it was showing on the chart trader that my entry short was wayyyyyy down there and would have to fall 15 ticks (3.75 points) just to find breakeven.

I didnt make a support message for it yesterday but the same thing happened when i right clicked a chart and chose sell market....it entred me 15 ticks lower than the current market price. Thanks for your feedback and i hope we can figure this out.

So when this limit order filled, did this an increase an existing short position?

Or did this establish a new position?

We need to see the order and fill lines for this order in the Trade Activity Log . Refer to the documentation here to provide this:

At this point, this appears to be a problem with the grouping of order fills which the Position Average Price relies on. We are looking into it now.
