CBOT down?

  1. Not trying to sound like a smartass - I trade YM and could easily be in your position. I'm watching the situation and thinking about it out loud :-(

    I'm sure that NQ will do for a major move but for tracking ES is better.

  2. I hedge ES with ~1.27 YM contracts for each ES. To hedge YM, take the inverse: ~0.79 ES contracts for each YM you had on.

    Good luck to all stuck in YM.

    The NYSE dow30 index is not updating either on NYSE's website. Could be NYSE's problem causing this.

  7. <i>"these outages are disconcerting but can be dealt with ok."</i>

    with all due respect, while YM traders deal with these outages again today, ES traders are hittin' it short and long this afternoon.

    Why deal with exchange outages all the time?

  10. Looks like Wilbur pulled the plug out of CBOT's Commodore 64, had to re-boot the DOS.
