Why a Feb 2018 article now?
- module0000 8y agoIt's a postmortem of the mini-crash we saw in February. No one was expecting it, and it happened very fast. One day the Nasdaq futures are trading at 7100, the next day they are at 6100. Moves of 100 points(a whole day's worth of movement) were happening in 15-20 seconds. Just for some context, 100 points(on the Nasdaq) is $2,000 gained or lost, using the minimum size you can trade.
