Hello,

I have a question on Simulation. When I trade the Es and the market flip very fast my Targets don´t executed although the price in the chart is ticked. For example Take Profit 4195. The market in the chart
goes on 4194 but the dom and my Take Profit don´t get executed. I noticed it when the market was fast Is it because of the Simulation or does it happen in live too ? I ask because in the near future I want to trade live so I dont want to get surprised...

The Targets should fill as long as the price is favorable (i.e. as long as the price is beyond the Target price). Did you use a special Target order type?

no, normal limit orders. Can it be because I have many lines in the chart? and many texts ? because e.g. when I write a text in my chart, the typing of letters is delayed and does not happen directly. This is not the case in another chart / market, for example, because I don't have any lines or texts there.

It is possible that having a slow response chart could cause issues with the Simulation. In this case, we would recommend using our "Simulated Futures Trading Service" and see how it works for you. Since this service is setup to be more realistic - in particular by having your orders sent to a server, it is not as dependent on your local system. Refer to the information at the following link:

Keep in mind also that the limit order's price level being touched, does not mean you will get filled, even in sim.
