what about bracket orders??? are those gonna get triggered???

No, nothing is trading. They'll have a preopen since it's been down for some time. Adjust your orders then.

The last time CBOT went down..... I lost a lot of money and it really @#$%^& up my charts!

actually that was the day i lost 1/3 of my equity..... after it reopened i decided to donk off my bankroll.

Wouldn't a pit trade be far more expensive that an electronic trade? Why not just hedge on the ES? It may not be one to one, but close enough.

Ridiculous. I was wondering why my bonds DOM wasn't moving.

for those trading mini-dow, the best hedge is NQ which has the same tick value.

I went long NQ to hedge my YM short...
