I don't know your level of expertise trading, but another possible issue is, even with a limit order, I do find that my Fidelity trades usually take longer than with my accounts with other brokers.
I think Fidelity does some simple stuff very well, but with more complex stuff, they're very far behind their competitors.
I've put through spread orders into Fidelity and other brokerages at the same time (giving Fidelity the first crack) and I've gotten filled on other brokerages before Fidelity, with the Fidelity order still sitting there. But it could just be me.
So if you are, or plan to do a lot of more complex spread or other trades, you might start looking elsewhere.
As Muncie says though, give them a call. Some of their folks can be helpful.
