That's odd, unless she had a margin call due or something.

This happened to me in the 90's when Ameritrade was relatively new. I put in an order to sell 2K shares and they sold 4k (anyone remember CNCX?)

Next time do this:

Ignore the errant sale until a few days after your monthly statement arrives. If the stock went up in that time, call and bitch and get the shares put back. "I just received my monthly statement and I'm missing some shares!!"

If the stock went down, ignore the errant trade and buy them back.
