why is my limit order not getting filled at the price specified, but worse ?

[Attila the trader]

i got a limit buy order set at 40.5 got filled at 40.9 , how does this happen ? a limit order should get filled at the specified price or lower (for long) , is it slippage but the market was not volatile and there were asks at my price on the level two. is the broker responsible for this ?

This should not happen. Contact your broker, and dispute the transaction.

I also think you should contact your broker's customer support team on this one. Have you tried reaching out to them?
