    I shorted ARNA premarket and I covered some of my position below $8 at 9.36am (extremely volatile today) after it traded at $11.62 at 9.35am.

    Although millions of shares traded during those few minutes,
    I am worried that the Nasdaq might bust that trade, and others near the low of the day.

    If the Nasdaq decides to bust that trade (and other similar trades), where would the notification be published on the Nasdaq web site?
