Why did my trade order reach the stop-loss position but not stop?

Hello, the take profit and stop loss price set by the order is only a critical value, and the corresponding order transaction will be triggered only if it is greater than or equal to or less than or equal to this price. Product quotations are jumping rather than continuous quotations (that is, quotations are irregular, and the market does not necessarily have a stop-loss or take-profit price you set), so the price at the trigger moment may not necessarily be equal to the set price. It may be from Jump directly above the set price to below the set price, so that the execution price of the transaction based on the real-time market price will be different from the threshold value, and the transaction will be executed at the actual market price in the end.

Also, the trigger price when a short position is closed is the bid price. So when you hold a short position, it may appear that although the selling price line on the chart breaks through the set stop loss price, due to the existence of the point difference, the buying price did not trigger the set stop loss price at that time, so it seems that the price When the stop loss position is reached, there is no stop loss.
