Not sure if this is true but I heard the most es is allowed to trade is 64 points in globex, after that it gets halted.

On the overnite session there is a circuit breker at 65 points so at 1268.25 trading had to halt untill the open( could have still gone down ,of course) To my knowledge this 5% rule has never been activated.

during the regular session there is a10% rule (unlike the above rule which is 65 points up or down) where trading halts for a small period , etc. again this rule is a down only rule not up

quote:Actually, i was too late on my entry and didnt get filled! Generally, my orders go in a few seconds before i post. Notice the time on that post(12:40). The market had peaked one minute or two before at 1267.75, but it never got above 1265.75 after my order was in so i didnt get hit. Too bad cause it would have been a really good trade.Thats why i made no comment about being stopped out or exiting with a profit. PS: sorry i didnt answer earlier, crazy day!
