And, thank you to everyone who has tried to assist so far.

I did not change the price. IB support confirmed the order was entered at -$0.10. IB support checked the audit trail and confirmed the order filled at -$0.20. IB support has escalated the matter. I am growing old waiting for a response. I see now that this is not an isolated instance.

Respectfully, this is not some sort of display issue. Remember that I placed the order as LIMIT at -$0.10. So filling at -$0.20 is where the failure is. It should never have filled at that price. If I am saying I don't want to pay more than ten cents, why did it fill at twenty cents?

For the record, I reached out to IBKR support (before posting this thread). At first, they too were stating that the order filled at -$0.10, but I insisted they dig deeper and they realized that was not the case. They went through the audit trail, and confirmed that it filled at -$0.20. They...

This is my problem. It did not fill at -$0.10. It filled at -$0.20.

When one buys a credit spread, they are entering a position for a CREDIT, not a debit. So, I was paid $0.50 to enter this position. To close the position, one sells the credit spread for a debit. Yes, closing a credit spread is the same as opening a debit spread. Regardless, I entered a LMT...

Yes, absolutely it matters only that the difference between contract prices matches my limit price, not what each leg price is. If you can see the closing order example I have shown, the SPX MAR24'21 3890 was bought for 0.55, while the SPX MAR24'21 3885 PUT was sold for 0.35. That's a 0.20...

I seem to be having an issue with the way my credit spreads are filling. Perhaps I am misunderstanding how it works. I am buying 0DTE SPX credit spreads, often around -$0.50. I may choose to sell some of my position at -$0.20 or -$0.10, using a LIMIT order. I often enter that order very soon...
