Quote from Lawrence Chan:

When NQ is down from 3% to 4%+, many traders will push it down to 5% (limit down) to get guarantee sell orders down at the limit down low.

Overnight maybe. Please reference the link I added above. Intra-day the 1st limit is 10%...

according to this link
http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/equity-index/files/EquityIndexPriceLimitGuide.pdf
NQ limit down would 210 points in the RTH
the NQ I'm looking at is down only 75 points

note in the AH, limit is only 5%,, that would be 105 points, but we're in the RTH

5% triggers something else - margin increase, for many firms
