Hello @eddieswelding,
It is possible for a page not to be cached due to certain criteria and checks we perform. If you set a COOKIE for example we would not cache the page, thus the checker will return “not cached”. Something else that you should take a look at are cache-control headers as some of them could affect the test as well.

I ran a test on a third party site and these are the results I got. Shows my site eddieswelding.com is not cached.
Too bad!
We couldn't detect a caching mechanism on your website.

I advise removing entries related to your domain from the information provided above.
On the topic of why the page returns “not cached” is the free SiteGround CDN. In order to utilize the full utility of the CDN and our cache service, you would need to use the premium version of the CDN. Otherwise, you will serve only static cache via the CDN, thus the checker will always return “not cached”
