CME Delays Futures Opens Due To "Glitch"; Update: To Reopen At 9:00 PM Central
Update:
- *CME GLOBEX RESUMES FUTURES TRADING AFTER TECHNICAL ISSUE
Looks like the machines want to run post-Yellen stops... to new record highs...
Perhaps someone needs to tell Treasury Futures it's time to sell off and keep the dream alive...
Update:
- CME GLOBEX MARKETS TO OPEN 9 P.M. IN CHICAGO
- CME GLOBEX TO PRE-OPEN 8:30 PM CT, OPEN AT 9 PM CT: CME GROUP
- CME: ALL DAY, SESSION ORDERS WITH AUG. 24 TRADE DATE CANCELLED
It appears - judging from FX markets this evening - that consensus on Jackson Hole is Yellen was more hawkish and Draghi & Kuroda more dovish than expected. The USD index is pushing on towards one-year highs as EUR is down 50 pips (not helped by a dovish FT article on deflation fears) to 11-month lows, and USDJPY broke to as high as 104.45 (weakest JPY in 7 months). In addition to this action, the CME confirms all Futures products will have a delayed opening due to technical issues with NO estimated opening time.
CME's only statement... on GCC site...
- *ALL CME GLOBEX MARKETS EXCEPT BURSA MALAYSIA HALTED, CME SAYS
Per CME GCC communication system, "Globex 17:00 market open will be delayed." cc: @RANsquawk

Phone call to Chris Grams, press officer at CME, was not immediately returned
USDJPY at 7-month highs
EUR tumbling to 11-month lows...
Of course, there is no need for futures trading anymore since The Fed will merely extend its "communications" policy to announce the end of day print for the S&P 500 each morning going forward...
But for those wondering, EURJPY implies an S&P open around 7 points down... though we suspect USDJPY will be in charge and stocks are lifted.

Sorry for the triple post...only clicked once. Me thinkest the web is under attack tonight. ISISitist must be spreading or is it a Windows based Ebolavirus?
Is CME trying to block trades which might profit America’s enemies?
CME = Complete Market Erasure
Global Financial Architecture and Economic Systems on Verge of Collapse
I know, I know, it's hard to believe. Snort, smoke, or drink something then watch the charts. Sigh.
Global Financial And Trading Platforms On System OVERLOAD
I know, I know, it's hard to believe. Snort, smoke, or drink something then watch the charts. Sigh.
Is this intentional in order to restrict Gold and Silver bids in order to drive prices down and trigger the stop loss?
Excellent! The ole truck is waming-up in the drive way. The tranny (no tranny jokes please) is broken but fortuitously, it still backs up when needed!
Yep - Briefcase is full of folding money, ready for a trip to the local purveyor of that shiny stuff.
Broken markets are always very bullish as is systemic failure. Forward comrades!

Wait What wasn't joking when he said Spooz had all weekend to melt up to a 29th record this year on no volume. he just didn't realize it would literally be no volume.
with everything America toouches turning to shit you would have thought the $ would actually gap down on zero confidence
Do you think the banksters would let that happen before monday morning false flag at 8:01 am. The earthquake wasn't big enough but there are tremors
The euro collapse in FX asia open has prompted a few sell orders in equity futures.
The problem is that the institutional algos are not switched on at this time.
However, technical trend following systems are on and the low volume of the last few days has made liquidity evaporate.
The few sell orders have created an imbalance which would trigger the stops so CME has decided to delay the opening on what it considers an artificial imbalance.

Why don't they do this every Sunday night?
Money piling out of Europe is NOT going to stay in USDs, hence all the 'De-Dollarization' agreements and 'Swap Facilities' set up recently. Short term action probably centers around the Tuesday Putin-Poroshenko meeting, when Putin will probably make the Nazi an offer he shouldn't refuse, precipitating a temporary run in the USD and bringing the EU a step closer to fragmentation (as it should). We were warned to expect "strength" in the USD right before they kill it.
artificial imbalance is the fed, why stop all markets indefinite until they are out.... so rigged!
Uh oh here it goes dollar way up silver unchanged gold little down and futures not opening. Hmmm all the crap going on in the world make you wonder but I am prepared bring it on and lets get it over with yahooooo
This should only be scheduled on Turbo Tuesday. Someone hacked into the matrix.

there is no market
Gold trading is not easily shut down. The international gold markets seem to work just fine without COMEX.
Everything is mispriced from here on out, until the dollar dies.

So I wonder if the entire markets won't just be suspended if ever there is a 10% or more down day.
Only buying allowed, and at a higher price then when things were closed.
Perpetual shut downs to keep the turd floating.
No flushes allowed.
BoC refuses to raise interest rates.
HFT will keep the lifeline stable. When rates rise, the money theft already happened.
Focus on SDR moving average and FX currency fluctuations. That's all for now. However, keyboards are hammering to stay ahead of destinations accounts and new limited holding accounts. Money is flushed into new account. The entire process is repeated.
They will be caught. Takes time. This is your US Government, not a fly by night Identity theft scammer. The end is near. I laugh on how egos make grave mistakes.
The poor little Intel US government fucker's. Ass raping, three meals a day, and a cell to reside in for the rest of your life. How deviant do you feel now?
No estimated opening time. Hmmmn.
I always said, whenever the big event happens it will be over the weekend and be evident in the Sunday night futures market.
What market? -lol
Out with a whimper rather than a bang?
7.0 earthqauke in Peru... now that is something to sneeze about!
I'm thinking we should all get together and sing 'It's a Small World After All'.
Chaos Theory, Bitchez.
?
TF now open and up a handle. Com'on Tylers, don't cherry pick data. EURJPY implies a negative open, but AUDJPY (+9bp) and USDJPY (+24bp) sure as hell don't.
the tylers , like the najarians, are really FADING their own public calls.
They must be late reprogramming the price control algos.
... such is the problem with people managing the technology.
If only the technology was able to manage itself. It would never call in sick or wake up with a hangover.
More's the pity.
This is the bell at the top telling people to get the fuck out of stocks. It's normal for the US dollar to rally during or before a recession. This is because currencies are affected by trade balance. As a country exports more, the value of their currency rises. Countries debase their own currency to maintain the exchange rate, and this is why it's often said that America "exports" inflation to other countries. What happens if the exports to the US slow down, but the country is still printing money as if exports were high? Their own currency loses value against the dollar. This is the forex market telling us trade is slowing down. Two currencies to watch are the Australian and Canadian dollar. Back in 2008, the Australian dollar lost about 30% of its value relative to the US dollar, from peak to valley. Canada's drop was a little less, but still very dramatic.
it may never open again
glad im flat
You're gld you're flat and somebody up top asked for no tranny jokes....Seeesh

Gotta get em before they pass 2000 as we will likely never see the S&P trade this cheaply again in our lifetime.
"how many here have MADE money reading the constant negative postings, and how many are living out of a cardboard box, under the bridge, and eating boiled shoe leather for noureshment?"
