It's called "spread"! There is a Ask price and a Bid price. Charts only shows the bars/candles based on Bid prices.
- A "buy" position opens at the Ask price and closes at the Bid price.
- A "sell" position opens at the Bid price and closes at the Ask price.
EDIT: Enable the Ask price line on your chart so that you can track the current value visually.
