Correct. There have only been 130,000 shares of DSLV traded this morning. I'm trying to get out now. My sell order moved the market


Short term trading in low volume stocks is tough. The bid ask spread can really put a hurting on you.

You got that right.

I knew I was in trouble when I put in my original buy order for 1,000 shares and it only partially filled (800). That made the price move up so much I canceled the unfilled 200 shares. I put a sell order in for the 800 shares and the priced drop way below my sell price within 2 seconds.

Lesson learned: Stay away from DSLV.
