CBOT down?

CBOT is not going to spend on maintenance, the sale is final, it's all deferred maintenance with them for awhile most likely.
 
I myself am not making light of the situation, at all. Been there in ZB several years ago for a serious pounding.

My point is, remember these days when you read the chest-drumming about how YM is vastly superior to ES for day trading.

It ain't. Here's one major reason why. ES traders booked more profits since 2pm est than all those split/spread ticks anyone could compile in two years.

Pa(b)st, we aren't worried about you & yours, ever. You've forgotten more about trading than most will ever learn. It's the modest-account day traders who live (by fiscal necessity) on rather thin ice I addressed. Many cannot handle one more huge variable in the equation like their whole freakin' exchange crashing once a month.
 
HEY SURDO.. you got some nerve, with your comments on et all the time, your another dicksmoker, like reaver, maybe you could blow each other..
 
CHICAGO, Sept 19 (Reuters) - Electronic trading of financial and agricultural derivatives at the Chicago Board of Trade has been halted by a technical glitch on the e-CBOT platform, a spokesman for CME Group (CME.N: Quote, Profile, Research) said on Wednesday.

Open outcry trading is still operating. The nature of the problem is not known at this stage.

Sounds like it is going to be a while. My first day trading the YM on a live basis. :(
 
Quote from fseitun:

what if YM doesnt make it back up by the close?
More...

It's open (normally) until 4 CST. If they don't announce anything by 3 CST they'll probably push the open back to 6:15 CST for YM, the normal evening opening time.

Just a guess
 
they deserve a class action suit

they hide behind an exculpatory clause, then give everyone the finger with gross negligence
