I've been playing with investopedia.com's simulator and today I tried selling some stocks and couldn't. I thought I was able to always sell back. So what are my options?
Bite the lost? Sell back a few at a time? Guess I just need a little explaination from the experience people.

Invalid Trade: No Volume In Stock
This order did not execute due to a violation of the game's volume rule.
Every game has a setting that only allows an order to be executed when the size of the order is less than 25 % of the stock's real life trading volume. If this stock typically has high daily trade volume, try making this trade again at a later time in the day; as our data feed updates alongside the real world's trade volume.
The purpose of this setting is to make the experience more realistic. In real life, if a single person or group purchases/sells large blocks of stock equivalent to a large proportion of a stock's daily trading volume, the stock's price will mostly be moved just by that one buyer.
By using a volume rule, we seek to simplify this complication by preventing users from buying the large blocks of stock that could influence the market. Furthermore, in the real world, your order would not be filled unless there was an adequate amount of shares to fill the order.
