Right?! I had some bond trading to finish up at EOD and I got left out of some positions! Cost me!

Seriously frightening... system crash at 3:30pm, right before market close... preventing traders from closing positions at EOD.

Imagine being stuck in a 4:1 margined position, and then being margin-called? omg

I remember one day during late March 2020 TD Ameritrade was down for like 2-3 hours. Massive selling that overwhelmed their systems and I couldn't sell my SPY puts.

The worst day was when China devalued their currency on August 19, 2015. I couldn't even log on for many hours.

I remember being in TF that day. Was a bad day for small caps!
