Reason for high difference between actual trade result and back testing

8-Dec-22: 1. Entry happened at 12:37 instead of 12:35 because of margin issue which caused the entry to happen at different strike as compared to back testing and in actual trade the CE hit the SL whereas in back testing it didn't hit the SL.
