1) Why are there always two fills for each trade?
2) Why is the GS 2:00:05 marked at that time and 155.09 on the executions table but marked at 2:15:00 and 155.06 on the chart?
3) At 7:33 i downloaded the day's minute data. Why does it execute a trade to sync? Is it an actual trade or just fictitious? Does it close out the position? After it's been Sync'd what happens to the trade the next day? GS was in a Sell Short position, then sync'd due to downloading historical prices. How do i get back to there the position is supposed to be? Does this mean that I shouldn't download new data while in a trade?
The overall syncing process is very confusing. Is there more documentation (perhaps a video) on all the mechanics and scenarios of syncing?
4) Also related to syncing, do all positions get wiped out once I disconnect? How about when I shutdown? It seems this is the case, so why is it?
5) Does execution behave differently for Sim versus real?
