It's a crypto. You can't rollback your transaction.

Sorry, but apparently you can not do anything in this situation. I think next time you will be more attentive.

How many coins did you send?

It sucks, but Bitrex is the only ones who can recover the coins, and many exchanges have a policy to not help you when coins are misdirected.

Did your entire cost exceed $5000?

That coin can not be recover, so very important to double check the address before sent any coin. If i send any coin  always try to send it by small amount first to make sure everything right and then send all amount, indeed the cost of sending it to be more expensive but this way will be more secure.

Did your entire cost exceed $5000?

Bittrex says: "This policy DOES apply to any deposits sent to an address of another coin on another network. This includes but is not limited to"

    Sending, for example, BTC to a BCC address
    Sending an OMNI/XCP asset to ANY address other than the one assigned
    Sending ETH to an ETC address

So you might be lucky if you transfered more than $5000 as cl0ckw0rk said above.

Next time, transfer a very little amount first to make sure everything works fine and then, transfer the rest of the amount.

Sorry for your lost but that transfer can't be recovered unless the person holding thus address is a good person and return your coins but I think it's not gonna be happen, double or triple times check your transaction before sending it!
