An example is DELL, a decent stock with no serious reason to have tanked when the market did. I bought it at $27 because the year leading up to the crash it was around $55. It's now over 60, but admittedly I sold it around 50 to lock in that and bought other stocks I saw similar potential with. And I bought several Cannibas stocks in November that have seen significant growth too.
The one question I have to see is taxes, it is all within an IRA so I don't think I have taxes due for the short term gains, but have to confirm that.

Is it a Roth or a simple?
If Roth you’ll owe no taxes. If simple, you’ll owe but not until the year you withdraw.
