GZ, as a futures trader, what is your thoughts on this guys
poor fill?

Message 16914533

"I lost half my capital in 20 seconds.. literally and I
had a stop in that should have protected me from
any big move like this by taking me out.. but my
stop was triggered and then I was filled 40 points
higher..

I was short the nq's and had a stop at 1626 and when the
stop triggered, they filled it at 1666......it was
the most unbelievable ridiculous unreal thing I have ever seen.

look at the chart for the nq's at 9:00 am..they
spiked up sixty points in one minute..and fell right back

the most I've lost on a stop on a futures contract
before this was one point and I lost 40 points on this execution."
