Sold in a weird position

Hello,

Anyone able to explain to me how this happened so I can avoid it in the future? My trade sold without a trade being there.

Hi,

When you buy you buy at ask price and when you sell you sell at bid price, and the difference between bid/ask is spread.

Your order stop loss got hit by ask price, the candles are based on bid price.

When you set your orders stop loss and take profit you must take into account the symbol spread.
