Helped me pick some ASX longs very quick, was not expecting that.
Should be fireworks when the UK and euro markets open tonight.
With NFP later.
Might be a reduce size day, me thinks.

Just reading the F Factory, think a few accounts got killed.
Algos trading illiquid markets.
Bit like the Swiss franc move, but from the central bank move.
Can happen to any market.

:idea: .. Up, then down,,then up a bit, then down, then up down up down up, then down some...Then up, and down, up down up, and down up down.. But after that im not sure
Up THEN down you say??? Hmmmmm. Was thinking more down then up myself.... either way expect a completely irrational reaction.

Lucky the Mo gang have those 3 to 7 point stops.
That will save them.

lower gold = wider ranges in equities
major uncertainty in markets.
dxy smack dab in the middle of both 10 day swings at 97.210 and 96.395
euro 1.12047 and 1.11165
main reason for uncertainty = gold won't go to 1265.32 today so will dow hit 18334 today?
you have a hawkish fed who drove markets up....gbp/usd hit 1.19
this makes no sense at all
