I did the EXACT same thing earlier today with Wii stock. I sold 10700 shares at 14 DKP, instead of vice versa. It brought Wii stock down about 2000 points, or 20%, before I ran out of margin, and left me with a -1.4M DKP position. I commented to whoever I talked to via e-mail that it would have been funnier if I had had the margin to sell the stock all the way down.
I didn't think I would see someone else ACTUALLY sell a stock all the way down just 9 or 10 hours later, let alone that I'd be a massive beneficiary of it.
I got a one-time DKP gift to cover my error. It will be interesting to see what they do this time. A 20% drop costing me 100,000 at most is different from a 90% drop costing you basically your whole 10,000,000.
