On news your price can be so distant (example: more than 2 spread or too old prices) from the market that server gives the requote even though maximum deviation allows to make the deal.

Yes, I see that now. I am using an 8Mb/s cable connection so I assume the broker created some sort of delay. Any way to speed things up on my end?
Also, I can't seem to get the messagebox() function to work on Windows Server 2003. MT4 Terminal just closes when the function is called. Any ideas?

I have an EA that sent an order to the broker with a max deviation of 10 pips. I was requoted by the server at a price well within the max dev. This was an actual standard account trade. I had a demo do something worse, in my mind; it requoted at a BETTER price than requested and yet did not fill. I'm wondering exactly how the server end of MetaTrader handles these requests since I'm not getting the results I expect. These problems only seem to occur at news time trades. I do understand that requested prices are not necessarily available in fast moving markets but shouldn't a request be filled at a the best available price within the designated order parameters?
Are requotes generated automatically by MetaTrader Server or can the broker create them manaully?
Thanks for any insight here. I've attached a snippet example of the problem. Again, the max dev was set to easily include this requote
