Was on the gap scanner and I wanted to short the stock. While at work I tried shorting but the tradestation said I wasn't able to short eventhough I was approved to do so. I called and said for some volatile stocks they turn off the shorting process. I thought that if there a not as many people shorting then this has the potential to run. Soon after it spiked up and got halted. After it resumed it continued to spike up so I jumped in and it started moving sideways. I got out with a small profit because I wasn't sure if it was going to drop. As soon as I got out it spiked up again and I jumped in with a smaller size. It spike up for a good gain.
