Why was my limit order not filled?

An unfilled limit order usually comes down to one of two things:

  1. The spread (the gap between bid and ask) hasn't crossed your limit price

  2. There isn't enough liquidity available at your limit price

Note: if part of your order filled but the rest did not, that's a partial fill, not an unfilled order - see: Why was only part of my order filled?
