[Programming Help] - 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

There is nothing unusual about that. We cannot provide any further help.

This is not anything we are going to look into. That is out of the question. We do not have any control over this and it is normal.
