When he booted up this morning, there it was. Sort of late to get a
trade done when the tradable had already moved 8 points (in your favor) from
your entry points, isn't it. Makes you feel warm and fuzzy about
TradeStation, doesn't it?

When you booted up this morning, you had a fake trade based on the fake
storage of data known as bouncing ticks.
Your realtime results were accurate based on real data. Nothing.
So you didn't actually lose a trade between yesterday and today.
Where you actually lost the trade was when you developed the rules
for your system based on the falsely-stored data.
Hypothetically, had the data been stored correctly by TS, your system
developement may have allowed for the proper adjustment to catch the
trade in realtime. So you can still blame it on bouncing ticks.
