Your remaining order (7931 shares at .015) is too small to be "marketed" on Level 2. It does not matter how big your original order was. If the residual order at any point is less than the share count threshold for stocks at the price your order is at then there is no requirement to post it to Level 2 and you can easily get "bypassed". I have had this happen many times. It is not sinister manipulation.

EDIT - for orders below the threshold, the market maker can post them on level 2 if they choose, but they are not required to show them.

If I could afford to buy all of them, I would not need to buy any of them and I sure wouldn't be spending time on the message boards!
