Did he call for more down movement if we broke 530?

<have you done any study >

No. It's usually pretty radical though. I recall several times that it was in excess of 10 OEX but almost all of it generally comes in the last hour.

Much more action like this and there may not be a last hour. That's an extreme scenario though. Coming into today I did not think we would hit the mid 50s on the spoo until Monday but if this 68 level breaks anything can happen. Plus you have the psychology of people looking to bail out in anticipation of a shut-down.
