Does anybody else show this? Massive spike here on OANDA.. inverse flash crash?

Yeah, it's on the futures as well. Over 5 handles. Those will be busted, but it's weird.

wow, I see it on march zb futures.

Don't see it on march ZN 10 year

ok, must have been algorythms going haywire again. They really shouldn't bust those trades, that would teach them.

Fat finger (rumor that apparently a large stop order in ZB went in as a limit one by mistake)... Everything above 131-12 busted (or, rather, adjusted to 131-12), allegedly. Similar in ultras.

Some guys in this forum may have been saying for years that one may hit the bid with any size, and a market would not move. If it falls, the fat finger is always there to explain it.

Just T-Bond (CFD), but may not be available in all jurisdictions.

I believe in Canada 2, 5, 10, 30 us, 10yr bund, 10yr gilts, are all available cfd's. Not sure about other locations
