Why does filtfilt provide me wrong results?

Hi all,
I'm using filtfilt function to filter some signals since i would like to minimize the phase lag between the original signal and the filtered one.
Here my code:
LPsig= designfilt('lowpassiir','FilterOrder',10,'PassbandFrequency',1,'PassbandRipple',0.2, ...
'SampleRate',Fs);
dfCoeff=double(LPsig);
FilteredSignalP=filtfilt(dfCoeff.Coefficients,1,Signal);
In this plot the filtered and non filtered signal are compared: http://s9.postimg.org/46qlzkz67/Immagine.jpg
There is the edge effect with a huge ripple. I found out that both effect are increased with the filter order, with a filter order of 10 both of them are negligeble. Could someone explain to me why? Anytime I have to filter data, I change almost randomly the filter parameter (filter order, filter type, passband ripple, etc) until I get a good result. How may I select the filter parameters?
Thanks
Regards
Pietro
