NASDAQ is broken

  1. So call your broker and ask they disable the auto liquidation. Today they probably won't give you a hard time.

    They won't liquidate you out of halted stocks, but they might sell the other stuff and the markets aren't as tight today as usual for obvious reasons.

    Why don't the exchanges maintain a parallel human floor to route orders through if the computers go down?
