    Anyone know if the spike was big enough to cause trades to be busted? I used to have the rules for that bookmarked, but seems to be missing.

    I had a nice short signal from the open but that spike down was pretty wild.

    Maybe clearing out a few longs from the recent chop....
     
  7. If you made money off the move, it'll be busted. If you lost, the trade will stand. Them's the rules.
