I regularly have limit orders placed at the ask not executed. The only time I actually got an execution is when the underlying actually ticks down(for calls). I don't mind paying the ask, but sell it to me. Every time when I switch it to a market order it gets executed within a minute. I've sat in amazement as my limit orders at the ask sit for 30-40 minutes. Especially when the spread can be a half point, I don't want to be paying more than even the ask. Unfortunately, that is the game. Perhaps its time for acceptance.
