  1. -60 from 855.25 next es lock limit.

    Anyone know offhand if russell TF has a limit down? Dollar wise it's gone down further then es.

    Thanks

    As for why limits exist

    Well it builds up fear so everyone can say oh look limit down, it locks in any buyers who weren't aware of the rule so they then take a much bigger hit than necessary at the open and really gets the ball rolling on triggering more downside stops lol

  7. Didn't mean if there's a lock in place, but wondering what the limits are. Looked briefly at ICE but didn't see it
