Quant trading guy here. Most likely your simulation didn't account for market impact. It's maybe the hardest bit. See liquidity based bullet points above.
Other place to look is whether the data was recorded with timestamps of where the trading happened, but you probably thought of that one.
Idea makes sense though.
