Average Fill Price

[pman777]

I have a strategy that has returned a result that is puzzling me. I'm testing it running NQ in Playback mode. At one point it enters into a Short position @ 7349.25 with a stop @7350.50. As price moved further down, I set the stop to 7348. However the trade unexpectedly gets 'stopped out' @ 7349.75 (not 7348). When I inspected the order object, it shows that 7349.75 was the average fill price. Can you explain why this may have happened? Thanks.
