Let me try to explain why you are getting passed over.

Suppose you have the l2 screen below where CSTI is the high bigger at .1045 and suppose you place a 5k bid in at .1075 that goes to CDEL. CDEL is under no obligation to post your bid with OTC, depending on the price they will post. At these levels, right around 10 cents, it usually takes a bid of 10k or more for the mm to post your bid to l2. CDEL in this example keeps their bid at .081 and you will only get shares once that bid is hit. In this example you might see .091 be hit and .083 and still you will not get shares, even though you have a bid of .1075.

You have four options in this situation to buy (as I see it):

1: replace the bid and hope it goes to another mm higher on l2(you might see the share count go up on the bid or someone else's bid is not showing and you both combined put the shares over 10k)
2: put in a bid for 10k shares
3: wait for your mm's bid to be hit at the lower price
4: buy off the ask.
