This was just a mess, so my numbers may be off here. Shorted at 2.67 and decided to cover at 2.75 as it didnt look to be going my way. I made a mistake at this point choosing to click the edit button (instead of cancelling) and place another order at 2.76. This is where confusion took place, Suretrader went from showing -200 to 400. I attempted to sell the 400 and was shown -400. see image for how often this happened. Took a live chat to correct. feel free to lend me your advice on this one.

Update: Watched Tim's video here: http://profit.ly/content/premium/13436 Another mistake I made was buying in early, I do not know why I did it, I had set an alert on GIGA at 2.65 to alert me of it close to going red on the day. Between setting that and placing my trade I seem to have forgot that and rushed into it. I have then compounded that mistake with errors in placing my buy to cover order. Lessons to be learned.
