What probably happened: The broker's quote feed may not represent a composite. Your order went to a MM or exchange and got filled based on that location's price - that would be represented on a composite list.

Order flow gets tricky. Generally, most brokers route market orders to whoever has the better price. Limit orders, however, need to go on somebody's book, and you get executed based on the price where your order sits.
