Once , early on in my day trading days, I did the same thing, except I bought! and, I only found it out because I tried to execute my next stock symbol and was informed that I had maxxed out my margin bigtime. I checked and discovered that, instead of an $8000 buy I had made and $80000 buy. My hands started shaking so badly that I couldn't even operate my mouse!.. I managed to gain enough contol by using both hand to steady it and I sold out at a little above break even. The irony of it was that, had I not panicked and sold only $72000 worth, I would have ended the day up about 14% (or something like that). Not too bright of me!
