Each were subject to brief but big swings on heavy volume before the prices returned to near pre-outburst levels.
NYSE said in an alert at 5:20 p.m. that it will busting AOL trades at or below $33.17 in that window, but let others stand.
Nasdaq, Direct Edge and NYSE Arca later said they will cancel all AOL trades at or below $33.16.
A call to one NYSE spokesperson to explain the discrepancy was not immediately returned.
