I have been finding good opportunities with option spreads.  I recently
placed a spread order with my broker on ADI,  buying 2 Jan 02 90 calls and
selling 2 Jan 01 95 calls for a net debit of 13 1/8.  Since my broker
doesn't take online spread orders I ordered by phone.  This spread (bid/ask
info) sat at 13 1/8 for much of the afternoon after my order was placed and
even moved to 13 for a brief time.  My trade was not filled and I am looking
for answers as to why.  Is this a normal occurence?  Does the market not
have an obligation to fill my order?  No trades were shown on either option
through this period.

Thanks in advance for any observations.
