Retirement tax questions

To elaborate on what DianeW777 said, you did not do a rollover.  You used the cash that you received from the sale of your investments to fund a new, regular contribution to the IRA.  If Fidelity instead recorded this as a rollover contribution, you have a problem that needs to be fixed so that Form 5498 that Fidelity issues for this IRA is correct.
