I have had situations similar to yours, and not as often better prices
than expected on limit orders. As long as I am on the subject of griping, often limit orders to buy not executed unless the stock happens to drop so the limit reaches the ask. Example XYZ bid 21 1/2 ask 22. I put limit order to buy at
21 1/2. Not executed all day, or stock drops to 20 1/8 and I buy it at 21 1/2. This happens with all of the brokerage firms from my experience.
