DAX Futures Flash Crash
Think it's all just a US debt ceiling issue? Think again. The DAX futures just flash crashed. And judging by the broad HFT stop happening all around, this is coming to the US any second. After all, gotta make sure Congress does as they are instructed.

VERY BULLISH
It's that damn fractal algorithm pushing all indexes below their 200DMA to cause a system wide cascade. Skynet is self aware.
Fortunately I assumed something like this would happen. DAX needed a good correction. It should go even lower.
Ran some stops at 7000. Obvs.
Paris in Flames!

DAX thats Frankfurt
mind you I can see some smoke in Paris too
Across the board in Europe.
AEX, DAX, CAC, MIB, IBEX.
And EUR/JPY.
Big money flow into YEN via the USD too.
Nice spike higher in the Swiss Franc too (not all JPY).
If this does come to the U.S. (or should I say when), will Silver/Gold all other commodities spike up, or will we see a repeat of 2008?
Positioning myself for a repeat of 2008.
When there is no liquidity bids will go down across the board. Since its difficult to pick a bottom
the plan is to scale in at 1450,1350,1250. Will purchase additional physical for core holdings @ 1250 and below.
Downside to 1000 is not unrealistic. New metals holders had a taste of the violent moves PM can make with the silver mini crash. 2008 repeat will shake out many.
Good Luck
Or upside to 10,000 with Sysytem Implosion.
That is right.
The guy is also running a risk of a bank holiday where he wont be able to transact, he is also running the risk of a bullion bank holiday. and he is running the risk in physical drying up.
hey buddy,this is one of the best posts that I’ve ever seen; you may include some more ideas in the same kamagra theme. I’m still waiting for some interesting thoughts from your side in your next buy viagra post.
We're in a different set of circumstances than in 2008. I'm still actively adding physical. The underlying value of gold in current dollars is ~$2,700.

Your blog has some of the most fascinating viagra without prescription information! I've read several pages here and I just had to comment and let you know that I thought you've been doing a great job here. Keep it up!
Sell everything faster, Scotty!
but Captain...I'm selling as fast as I can...and she can't take much more!
Warp factor 6 and engines can,t take much more Cap,n.
Very Good Scotty.
the governments have all their cards on the table and its not enough to fix anything
Those are maxed out credit cards.
Cards with nekkid pictures of Nancy Pelosi and Michelle Obama on them? Oh boy . . .
Hit 6890
6860 was the low print
was halted at 6941 and crashed just after the reopen
last 6955 who had shorted the reopen is 95 below now , dax future is 25€ a point
Check out gold with the big $1630 fuck you to all.
Oh oh...
CAC -2.3%
FTSE -3.87%
IBEX -3.25%
S&P -1.18%
Every time it crosses 1,630, it is quickly beaten down again.
1000 stering must protected....for now
Reminds me of Yosemite Falls.
or Yosemite Sam

Crude Oil also flash crashing.
Instant tax cut for the U.S. Consumer
Los Angeles gas prices have outright plunged the last 3 months.
http://66.70.86.64/ChartServer/ch.gaschart?Country=Canada&Crude=f&Period...$/G
Looking at the big picture, crude is crashing because as every fricking indicator in the world is now amply demonstrating, the economy is falling off a cliff.
I'm sure the cheap gas will be a big comfort to LA consumers as they drive about aimlessly looking for non-existent jobs.
Talk about missing the wood for the trees.
He is a troll. He doesn't see the forest, nor the trees.
good one.
poor 'tard with his crazy bull call last night. as he circled the track last night with visions of a lulu lemon pair of yoga tights wrapped around his shoulder as if it were the usa flag, to the wild cheers of his star struck followers on zh, he forgot one thing. the market might not react as he deems. alas, the 'tard once again lives up to his claim proudly as the ultimate dumb money indicator.
Yoga pants in a pile on the floor is a BEAUTIFUL thing. Yoga chicks can do some *amazing* things. Good things. So, more LULU please, means more yoga girls, win-win-win!!
i like the girl part.
Gold(en yoga) bitchezzz!!!.
but, but but, there is no Hellespont there!
Now that's what I'm talkin' about!!
looks like an expensive fuck...
lol.
No, your credit card will reset the charge to the higher amount after the problem is fixed. LMAO.
robo
your call of dow + 250 last night
might be a touch off the mark...
fork lift long

The S&P just broke through the 200 day so, I'm sure everything will be fine.
Too many chciken shits around here.
Buy this dip you dumb fucks.
Fiat market prices are on fire, so get it while its hot.
Bernanke gots your back home nuts.
first time thru the 200 is the best indicator btw
'isnt'
Don't down vote me fucker, this is a buy of a lifetime.
Wait until Friday when that jobs report is released, you will see how fucking strong the economy is.
Green shoots you ass hats!!!
LOL!!!!
Wow, this is exciting!
So the Teleprompter in Chief should come on and speak soon...no?
When he damn well feels like it. We're on his clock, he's not on ours.
I saw DAX futures as they dropped and actually thought my feed was broken...
Its SELL-NOW-ASK-QUESTIONS-LATER time
Can somebody tell me what happen to the Forum?
I was trying to research smthng & it wasn't there...
Germany has just woken up to the reality that they are on the hook for several trillion Euros of bailout money for Italy and Spain. Soon.
Oops.
What about the dow... seemed to have just dropped pretty fast.

algos at work
My Bloomberg terminal just broke.
The great reset is coming and there is nothing these chumps can do about it.
which chumps?
3rd dip and now into the 3rd dead cat bounce.
Will we get into the fourth scenario. Yes, just as I am writing.
Looks like the end to something to me.
WTF WTI?
That $50 up day in AU may be at hand.
Feels like world markets major sell off is coming. Global growth is slowing quickly. People are finally realizing it.
"Global growth is slowing quickly. People are finally realizing it."
Not 'people' but the speculators. Next come the investors and then managed money and finally 'the' people.
Usual Summer play, check back 2010 from May all the
way through September, then Bernank will take out
his shotgun, ones he get mad.
He who panics first panics best.
After watching oil today, I completely retract my statement that QE3 is off. It is looking like a set up to get QE3 on is forming in the markets. WTI is very close to breaching that $90 threshold. Buckle up people, QE3 in T-minus 29 days.
This. TZA puts from October on are looking a bit cheap already, we're going to get a pretty saucy run in 4Q. They called S&P 1400 at the beginning of the year, and they're gonna make that happen.
HFT.
Great on the way up, not so great on the way down.
Unless you've been expecting it. Joe Saluzzi and Sal Arnuk of Themis Trading have said along the lines of when the fall starts the HFTs will just pull and there will be nothing to stop it. They could be right.

Funny enough, it turns out that if you force any and every short out of the market, by repeatedly raping their trading accounts, they won't be there to provide short-covering related buying when things start to drop hard.
Who'd have thought? Central Planning screws up again by focusing only on the ultra-short term.
Is the bounce off the lows still scheduled for 12:30?
Misplaced the memo....
If this drop is the QE3 scare, then we have a way to go. Buckle up.
Hmmmm - is it me - or did the crash start just about 5 minutes *before* the offical ISM release?
Insider trading?
In percentage terms, the IBEX is down even further.
The USD/JPY has recovered from 76.29 to currently sit @ 76.96.
Anyone not long USD/JPY down here, might need to take an economics course for real......especially with stocks getting thrashed and the Euro risk on trade unwinding due to 5 bankrupt countries beyond repair
Still substantial carry trades being unwound, I wouldn't want to bet either way.
/6s hit 1.2944 earlier, intense
As soon as I'm done writing this, I'll be polishing my jackboots, readying for my march in the Congressional Victory Parade. Sieg Heil!
isn't it only a flash crash if it bounces? if it goes down and stays down it's a real crash :)
Illiquid for almost 4 minutes. Totally strange move...
yes at 17.38.21sec print a 6952.5 1 second after the print was 6941 with 1 contract, and was halted
so 10.5 pts gap down without bid in the books, based on my data
flash crash is over USDCHF /USDJPY claiming back up,
we might finish Green ones votes gets through.
Bear trap.
How's that trade working out for you?
<----- Meh! Transitory bitchez
<----- Screwed, get your bug out bag!
FTSE almost down 4% bitches.
Shut the front door!!
'Flash Crash' has that catchy, newsbite cachet that's so popular these days......easy to say and fun to repeat, but it doesn't quite capture the subtle nuance of the event. They should really call it 'Grand Larceny.'
Course, that's just my opinion.
Listening to Rush today, he sounds either drunk or had a mini stroke.
It's all that righteous indignation (and some Rohypnol). Or perhaps he was trying to stroke his "mini Rush" whilst on the air.
I wouldn't doubt that his strokes are quite short -- assuming he can even find it.
Consequences will never be the same:

How now brown DOW?
It looks like shit, so be it
as things unfold,
go to gold
No crisis left behind
Japanese ¥ sub-77
Cyprus may soon have to seek an international bailout, becoming the fourth state in the euro zone to request a rescue if it does not take urgent action to repair its finances, the island's largest commercial bank said on Monday. Shit storm Monday ...
Italy down too:

It sure looks like a pretty day.
+1, Tyler
statistically most flash crashes have signaled a buying opportunity, .. go figure
i'm not sure this qualifies as a flash crash tho
Vaddel und Reit, Zicke!
Realterm.de DAX in Gold:
http://www.realterm.de/DAXinGold.php
flash crashes are like summer storms...violet wet, violent bent and transient. The sun shines a half our later. Is Berlusconi planning a bunga bunga while Milan burns?
Is shorting the DAX now possible or not?
If nobody watches when a market flashcrashes... did it crash?
And why do they call it flashcrash instead of Crashflash?
It's this kind of stuff that keeps me awake...
Buy the dip..........
Oups, this ain't PM... LOL!
Flash crash.....!!?? (Fleich Kratz)
You surely must be joking Mr Tyler
Spec Long UPRO fifteen minutes ago. If we don't bounce back over the 200 SMA right soon (like, tomorrow) the bottom drops out and the Admin knows it, acutely aware as they are of markets.
I believe a stick save is in order and we get it.
The evil empire will have you worship the beast. The world wide goon squad can pull the plug on markets; banking as we know it in a flash. Good thing for ameriCON'd the wooden heads in CONgress/SINate are there for us. AmeriCON'd will be the last to awaken to a debt based currency, as the USDinker dollar going worthless, racing to zero along with the rest. AmeriCON'd has been asleep the longsest. Lulled into a carnal security thinking government is here to help us. It'll be a real financial slaughter coast to roast when it all goes. Only thing the 3 stooges of triple A rating agencies will be grading is the ameriCON'd citizen slaughtered; porked in the rear end by benron and gang. Triple A financially slaughtered. bendover and gang having jiffy lubed the world as the ultimate grease monkeys. Planet of the apes a reality.
Cool. I got two cherries in my Steak & Shake chocolate shake today instead of just one!
Get out your dax 5000 hats.
