huge deviation in buy and sell price when auto trading in mc

The broker used is interactive broker.

In this example, the trade was operated in a simulated account.
Two pieces of futures should be closed in position 1, but it was sold in position 2 finally, the deviation was too big obviously.

Some people said that this was related to the account used, that is, this situration would not be occured in a real account.

In fact, I have not do the testing in a real account.

So, i would like to know is it just a problem of the simulated account?
Or, any other issues i need to take notice of?

Thanks a lot!


they are another examples

mcescher_lky, which quote field do you have plotted on your chart (Trade, Bid, Ask)?
Which data provider do you use for chart data?
What order types do you use (market, stop, limit, etc.)?
