Fluctuating water gauge

I have a enerjet boiler, i keep the water gauge at 50-60% filled. but once the system is running, the level drops to about 15%, thats when the automatic water feeder kicks in and fills the system. this repeats a few time. finally when the system is off for awhile, the water level would be much above the water gauge. at time i would release about 2 gallon of water to even see the water level at top of water gauge. Repeats when boiler is running again. Pressure on the meter at most 0.5 psi.

What is the cause of this, anyway to correct it.

concerned system is not running at optimal level.

I am getting heat in all radiators, no water is coming out of the steam valves.

Any advice would be much appreciated.
