Mark, if what you say is true, the short covering, combined with bull rush can push the price thro the sky. FIBR has a reputation for being volatile. Intraday chart shows sharp rise after 2:30. Could be be short squeeze. Also they were in the news recently.

My strategy:

Buy at n shares @ open
place limit n shares at 16.50
place limit n shares at 16
place limit n shares at 15.50

If the gap is too high, i'll probly omit the open order.

Also look at intraday chart of USRX. More than $10 million worth of shares were sold at around 3:30. Price plummeted to 91 after that. I have no idea what happned in after hours trading, but price recovered to 91.75. I think somebody wants to cause panic selling to get in cheap. Could be funds. USRX might drop Mon, Tuesday. Then the big boys will buy it all.
