It was a sell stop-limit order. I thought the actual stock price had to drop to match my stop limit order before it would trigger, but it was only the bid that had to drop. This was another lesson in my ongoing education at the traders school of hard knocks, each one more valuable than the first.

Thanks again for everyone's help.
