Post From: Sierra Chart sim trading exiting positions at impossible prices

So, I selected: AlwaysSimulateBidAndAskPricesDuringReplay, and that gave a realistic Flatten & Cancel market order fill under fast market conditions.

However, today that option simulated a sell stop fill 1 tick below the low of a bar. Impossible.
I actually had a real sell stop order live on the exchange at that very price and it didn't fill. Yet sc.Sim registered a fill. So I know that even this option is defective.

In short, I have to use replay mode to debug the order logic of the spreadsheet, but fills need to be simulated on tick data with a separate trading code program. I use AHK for that, since I know it well.
