    Flash crash redo. Lots of busted trades tomorrow = huge losses for some traders.

  4. Nope demand is high for NQ. I would be careful about Globex, it could really do a slippery move up on the levels. (out of longs already). Still lean bullish for tomorrow, I am directional only

    Day traders are caught in their shorts. Somebody always loses.

    It seems to me a lot of traders were net short before the halt... (I would have been if I was trading during that time..)

    deadly if they chose to wait to break even..

    They fixed it. What happened was a legacy Novell 3.12 server running the Novell SNA gateway crashed.

    The SNA gateway communicates with a legacy IBM 360/195 mainframe that handles the displayed quotes for tape c.
