Why Did My Limit Order Stay Open After the Stock Hit My Price?

Say I place a buy limit order at $25.00. The chart shows the stock traded at $25.00, but my order is still open. What should I check to understand why it didn’t fill?

When this happens, how do you tell whether it came down to the bid and ask, other orders ahead of yours, or a trade outside the hours your order was active?

If you’ve seen this, please share whether it was a buy or sell order, whether it happened during regular or extended trading hours, and what helped you figure it out.
