So the fills I get are "best possible fills" and don't represent real time fills. ?? The fills are only simulated fills. They cannot provide a perfect representation of actual real-time fills. During a replay, back testing accuracy is also based upon the timeframe of the records in the Intraday data file. If they are tick by tick there is greater accuracy. Your automated spreadsheet trading system, did indeed submit the orders that you are getting fills from. Sierra Chart is not going to mistakenly generate these. This is not possible. This section here gives you more insight into why this can happen even though you do not see the actual buy/sell arrow on the chart: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_SystemsAlerts.php#DisappearingArrows We cannot comment further on this because we do not provide automated trading debugging.
