I've run into a strange scenario where I've moved over to SC order routing and I have seen a large number of phantom orders populate on my screen with connecting fills. They are fairly consistent in orientation. 1. When I close a trade nothing shows up abnormally, however starting on the next trade, it seems to back fill a phantom trade where I closed the original trade (target or stop out)and also create a new phantom close I am opening a new one. The trades are not showing up on my broker statement thankfully and are not affecting my live PnL but it is throwing off my daily PnL calculation. I've deleted the data, re-started SC and I seem to be at a bit of a loss. I am charting on ES and trading on MES. Happy to provide as much as I can here but just seems like an odd thing that should be relatively easy to fix, I am just at a loss at the moment. Thank you for your help.

First thing to do is to make sure there are no duplicate order fills in the Trade Activity Log for the Symbol and Trade account in question. Instructions:
Trade Activity Log: Viewing Historical Trade Activity

And then refer to the information here about order fills on the chart not displaying correctly:

Thank you. I found success deleting my old fills, disconnecting and re-connecting to the data feed and waiting for the orders to refresh. I had to manually click show only today and apply and then uncheck but it worked. Thank you for your help.
