I'm having issues with order execution. What I'm noticing is that every time I enter or exit a trade, the entry or exit price tends to have significant slippage where the price doesn't reach. This is happening to me every day. I'd like to know if you have any links that could guide me on how to resolve this or what I should check. Thank you very much.

I sincerely apologize for the delay in my response; I hadn't seen the notification of your email in my inbox. This also happened last week. The orders continue to experience significant slippage, and they are filled at any price. I then have to modify them in the "trade activity log" to set them at the correct price. Attached are three images from last week showing the same slippage. Thank you very much.

This does not make any sense: This also happened last week. The orders continue to experience significant slippage, and they are filled at any price. I then have to modify them in the "trade activity log" to set them at the correct price. How is it the fill is wrong? What is wrong with the fill? You need to contact your broker about that. We are not understanding what the problem is exactly that would be relevant to Sierra Chart. Is the timestamp wrong? This would mean your computer's clock is off. It makes no sense for the price to be wrong. Is the price you see for the order fill differ from the price within TWS for the same identical fill?
