Regarding post #7, to examine the Intraday recorded data here is the relevant documentation:
Intraday Data Editor

In regards to post #1, there definitely is a problem with a seemingly invalid price that Sierra Chart was referencing. It would have been a last trade price or a bid or ask price. Was the market open at the time of the fill? Was this during a replay? Was Sierra Chart running at the time that the order should have filled at?

You would need to be looking at the last trade price and bid and ask prices at the time of the fill. Check the File >> Open Time and Sales Window, Window >> Current Quote Window. And also examine the Intraday data at the time of the fill:

The invalid price is coming from somewhere.


Obviously there is a data issue. Not with Sierra Chart trade simulation mode. That would be impossible.
