NYSE orders at market open won't go through

I have experienced this issue many times. I send an order at open, it doesn't go through.

The order just sit there (I don't get filled) or the order is stuck and I cannot do anything about and I get filled on it like 1 min later.

Yesterday, I sent an order on FDX at 9:30:06 and I didn't get filled on it. Spoke to IB and they mentioned that my order was sent to the NYSE and the first trade on NYSE happened at 9:30:16

Anyone had this issue? Or what are some ways to mitigate it?

Thanks!

What friggen kind of order?

You do understand the FIFO concept right?

It was a marketable limit order(Bid-0.1, Ask +0.1) so kind of a market order which I suppose I should get filled on.

Yes I do, but since I sent a market order I suppose I should get filled.

I was told by IB to route to a different exchange such as Island or ARCA

uh, how about providing some prices?

did you, for instance, put on offer at $100.50, and the stock opened and traded at $100.00?

put the relevant data in your post.

The offer was at 219.55$. It traded there during the time I put the order in. I put a limit order below the bid (Bid-0.1) so it was like a market order
