    Those are the overnight moves!

    DAX futures are already down over 20% from the peak of a few weeks ago:[​IMG]

    DAX futures down over 8%, 40 minutes before regular open. Anyone know where the circuit breakers are on the DAX?

    DAX futures now down over 1100 pts, almost 10%. Half hour to open.

    Looks like the EURSTOXX 50 futures are down exactly 10%.

    DAX has recovered now down only 5% inline with US futures. Was down almost 10% in pre market. Insane stuff.

    Stock index futures are tame compared to CL.


    CL gapped down 20% from 41 to 33.

    Then went from 33 to 27 in a couple of hours. Another 20% down move.

    Then went from 27 to 33 over a few hours. A 20% up move.

    CL makes the 5% moves we have been getting in the SIFs look insignificant.
