Stop loss issue in historical test

If I set a stop loss to 10 pips when I run a historical test probably 10% of the time it runs beyond the stop to sometimes multiples of the initial stop. That 10 pip stop sometimes turns into 50 pips. Is this a server issue? Of course I am running this on a demo feed.

It is annoying, as it skews test results. Any assistance?
