Look at this way, everyone else who owned shares is in the same position. The timing is usually staged between different traders and it appears to be a lottery over who gets to trade first. I'm with TD and on one R/S, I had to painfully wait for a further week while I watched everyone else sell off. On the last one, I got my shares within 2 days and was able to trade before other people.
I like this stock but got out prior to the R/S because I've never seen one go well. I'll be buying back in low once the storm has settled. No way is the price going to hold or rise as a result of this in the short term. It will probably take 1-2 months before we see how this plays out.
