I NEED TO GET OUT OF THE MARKET!!!!
I NEED TO GET OUT OF THE MARKET!!!!
I'M HOLDING LONG POSITIONS !!!
...........THE MARKET HAS CRASHED!
.........MY COMPUTER HAS CRASHED!
.........MY INTERNET CONNECTION HAS CRASHED!
........THE PHONE LINE CONNECTION TO THE TRADING DESK IS BUSY AND I CAN'T GET THROUGH!!!!!!!
......The next day!!!!
Fast market conditions!!!!
- the pit is not taking any "GTC orders"!
- the pit is not taking any "limit orders"!
- now that I have gotten through to the desk the market has
gapped down 100 points! and the pit can't find my order???!!!
I CAN'T GET OUT OF THE MARKET!!!
