stackpanel containing button does not fire command wpf

Question

I have a stackpanel that contains many elements including buttons. I am not able to fire a method through ICommands. It works through adding an event handler in the code behind for the Button.Click event. Since, I am following a MVVM pattern, I want to fire a command. Also, this stackpanel is a datatemplate for my listviewitem.

<ListView.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
        <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" HorizontalAlignment="Center" IsHitTestVisible="True">
            <Button Cursor="Hand" Command="{Binding MoveImageUp}">
               <Button.Background>
                   <ImageBrush ImageSource="..."/>                                      
               </Button.Background>
            </Button>
            <Grid>
                 <Image Source="{Binding Path=Image}"/>
                 <TextBlock Height="20" Width="20" Text="{Binding Path=Order}" Opacity="0.8" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top"/>
             </Grid>
             <GridSplitter HorizontalAlignment="Center" Padding="1" />
        </StackPanel>
    </DataTemplate>
 </ListView.ItemTemplate>

I have tried setting IsHitTestVisibile to true, does not work.

I assume you command is in one level up, so you have to specify correct context for binding. — FoggyFinder

There was no DataContext set for the button. Thanks @Foggy Finder

<Button Cursor="Hand" Command="{Binding ElementName=ImagesList, Path=DataContext.MoveImageUp}" CommandParameter="{Binding}">
