EFS Live Auto Trade Enters / Exits At Random Position

[ewdeg98]

Hi, sometimes when I use sellMarket or buyMarket the trade enters at an incorrect price.

For example, if I enter long at the open at a candle using buyMarket, the entry price will sometimes be correct at the open, but other times it may be below the low which is impossible, Slippage should not be problem with paper trading but it seems like entry & exit price are wrong about 50% of the time by 25 or 50 cents.

When I call

sellMarket() 

, does it enter at the latest Bid using

getMostRecentBid() 

and

buyMarket 

using the latest Ask with

getMostRecentAsk() 

?

If so that would explain for me at least why the entry and exits are off.

Looking at these 2 threads,

I think that is the issue. What I'm still wondering is why those Bids / Asks were not filled in the real market. (as they are sometimes outside the candle limits)
