Guys, something happened to me on this stock today. I had a very good profit intraday long with 100 shares until it reversed. Price went through my stop and i couldnt sell, not market, not limit. Message from IB said the smart route or exchange didnt accept my sell order. I had to call them to manually close it, fortunately in the green. They told me they didnt have shares. Any info on this? happened to anyone? Panicked a bit since this is a volatile beast!
This is LS TRader L2. The "T" means threshold or Reg-Sho. You should have been able to sell long but not short. Must have been a system error thinking your were flat then trying to sell short.
ahhh makes sense. I was 500+ in profit at the original stop. Any idea of price action for tomorrow? seems it will plunge. Thoughts?
Heard about some volume going into puts today at 120. Down in extended hours. Current price 110.99, close around 120.
OK, so now what. The market is closed. You can't short it tomorrow morning, you can only buy or do nothing. This is way too much a gamble for most traders. I would avoid it. the closing market was:
I dont want to short...no shares available even if i wanted! Yet some things i read made me bullish including some millionaire buying a lot today, and a lot of shares privately own! Thats all.
@Leopard9 If you want to buy this stock, you are much better off buying the calls. You will have limited risk and almost all the upside, due to its hard to borrow status. See this post. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/tlry-options.324953/
