Sold BRP At 73.15 When It Was Trading At 72.70

This morning I was watching BRP closely and I placed a limit sell order at 73.15 and started to wait. The stock was trading around 72.70 and all of a sudden my stocks are sold. Here I am looking at the screen and it did not even change a penny yet my stocks are sold for 45 cents more. It took another half anhour to reach 73.15 later on. But I was wondering how did this happen?

Volume is close to 1MM on this stock BTW.

Any ideas?

Not enough info, but in general T&S would tell the story.
 
what exchange did you offer out on?

I checked the records this is what it says

Destination: LEHM (DEFAULT)

Exchange: NYSE
Symbol: BRP

I guess the default is Lehman, I did not even know that

Now why is this important?

Again, check T&S. I'd bet it was a buy sweep.
