anyone trading YM it was down 600 points? are these trades gonna stick? my transaction were 9075 short and a 8474 cover! are these gonna be busted?
or could it be someone at one of the big houses hit the sell button instead of the buy ?? Seemed like it was going to be a quiet low volume day, but it's getting juicy now !! Vega
Same thing happened in ES apparently. The move looks real. The trades will not be cancelled is my guess. There is an early close today and with the bad jobs data maybe no one wants to be long over the long weekend.
Massive spike down ! .... dunno.... perhaps someone put a sell at market with a shit load of contracts by mistake, then again could be bad data, I got dow hittin 8990 & SnP 979
I tried to sell FTSE futures coz It didnt move with the spike... couldn't get filled.... looks like it hoovered up all the bids... somebodys in for a nice weekend!
I think it could be someone enterring a buy as a sell with some huge size, and judging by the way everything snapped back they realized it and are trying to cover. I really hope that's all it is, otherwise someone's betting there's gonna be some REAL fireworks this weekend ! Vega
