Post From: Bitmex bid ask spread data inconsistent with trades

When I’m backtesting, the book is showing a specific bid-ask spread, but trades are occurring completely out of this range. This is a common occurrence, and is affecting both backtesting and execution.

The trade data itself is correct, but the bid-ask spread for the book is wrong, which is why the parts of the strategies based on the bid-ask spread do not function properly. Is there anything I can try to narrow this down?

Screen recording attached showing static bid-ask price while trades occurring outside the range.
As well as depictive screenshot.

Seems potentially related to this issue: BitMex Bid Ask trades problem
