In Ninja you can configure yourself how optimistic or pessimistic fills should be on your Sim. If I select a more pessimistic approach, I usually get better fills on Live account than on Sim, and that is not exaggereation.

that it will also work in live.

In other words, if it does not work in live, most likely it will not be the
fills that kills it.
