We can not tell anything from the image you provided. You need to look at your Trade Activity Log and see why your position was closed out. If it was due to the Stop, then you need to look at the price at which it filled and whether that was the price you expected and if not, then you need to look into why. Also, was this a simulated trade, and if so, were you using the built-in Simulation Mode or one of our Trading Evaluator Services? If it was a live trade, then that means that the order was filled by the market, so it would not have anything to do with Sierra Chart (unless you were using a Client Side Stop for some reason).

Hi John It’s an apex evaluation account. The first short in todays sessions got filled where the market didn’t even go to. I.e hit my stop loss. I will look in to trade activity log. I don’t have a client side stop loss. It just seem suspicious Thanks |

We understand why you are asking the question, but since this was an order being managed by Rithmic, it was then filled by either the Market itself or by their system (we do not know how they handle evaluation accounts). The one thing we want to point out is that you are using a "Trade and Current Quote Symbol", so you are trading the MES while looking at the ES chart. Therefore you are not seeing the actual data for that symbol. You need to look at an MES chart to ensure that you are viewing the correct data, which may have moved into the region for the stop.
