    ES fell 41 points in those 3 minutes.
    Anyone have any news from then ?
    Wondering if just algo's going wild or real news.
    Thanks.

    I think it is good to always have a hard stop. It is ok to have a wider mental stop to go to if need be as PA unfolds but a hard stop should always be in the market. Algos can create sudden deep fast moves. So fast you can’t hardly react.

    Numerous "alarm clock" triggers really. For a long time it was 2:45pm (CT).
