    Its not a crash at just 100 points below fair value. Futures usually overextend the days trading after hours, so not surprising.
    Also YM trades on Sunday people.

    Because they are futures. If they stay at a large negative FV, the cash markets will open lower on Monday.
     
  7. What is FV?
     
  8. FV is a reference to 'Fair value'.
     
  9. fair value - what the cash index closed at
