Can you please provide us some more information, please?
Maybe a screenshot or the .vfs file?
Without the information it is hard for us to investigate.

Thank you.

It is slippage. And it some times happen in market.
Historical test works on tick so it imitates slippage.

I might think the .vsf file is needed before drawing any definitive conclusion.
