I've never had a problem with slippage; I'm just amazed at the current market conditions. A record slip by a factor of 5 is a police escort to the sidelines...
I expect a bottom by Friday or intraday reversal on Monday but the bear is having a great time, for now. It's been a good run fotr the bears but all good things come to an end. Enjoy while it lasts, the last bear hurrah for a few weeks. But, markets not out of the woods. Will be a long slow process, over several months, and siginificant changes in regulations and the general Wall St environment.
