ZB or other bonds not entering at market price

[Helmstead]

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to trade the ZB or ZN but when I'm using the sim account and enter a position it never enters it at the current market price, it's normally 1 tick in the opposite of the current direction of the candle. It got even worse when I downloaded some playback dates to test with. I entered a position for a single contract and it filled it way out of range of any of the candles for an immediate loss of over $2500. Something has got to be broken with bonds and the sim/playback accounts. I haven't tried to enter a position yet with my live account because I want to learn how the bond markets work first. Has anyone else seen this?
