That was 10 fat fingers, two fat feet, and a fat bum.

watched it happen, real trades all the way up and all the way down. I had a market sell right after open, got a smidge over open price, then watched it fly up.....

i short some around 150.probably will be busted

ZION did something similar. Up to $131 and quickly down past $50, now at $51.72. What caused it? Shorts panicking to cover, right?

Yeah I think I got screwed by this. I was short 760/770 RUT calls and looks like they are gonna mark these settlement values over 770 even though the index never went over 761......why the SEC doesn't look at this settlement at the open garbage on the indexes I will never understand.....oh well.

IYY VTI

Look at these total mkt funds, absolute craziness. Wonder if the 75 - 85 trades will be busted.

GRECHA · Sep 19, 2008

ok. Too bad.. Iwm trades busted. I'd certainly like to find out what happened.

GRECHA · Sep 19, 2008

If anyone knows how to find out more about what happened, or the criteria of the broken trades pls post, or direct to a source. Just wondering if some were cancelled and some weren't depending on deviance from opening price. Thx
