Yikes! Since I'm only paper trading at this point, I thought I would try "averaging up," thus the additional 300 shares shorted at $59.70. I placed a stop, and then when Kunal said it was a no go, I went to cover, but I still had my stop order in place. So my stop order went through as a buy which gave me 900 shares on the long side, which is the next trade.
