Ice--On this I need a sherpa, I am lost in this wonderful storm. Point me to the nearest cliff -- I am ready.

PS -- how do you suppose somebody like AG gets the word out on how much damage is too much in a day? My guess is we won't see emergency room theatrics unless we get past 10% down on the day -- one for the record book! I cannot see -300 in a day -- could take two or three.
And AMZN? LOL -- I don't know where to set my traps. But then you know I have this apocalyptic thing going on in my imagination right now. I keep wondering if the hedge funds have been building a really, really massive box -- and tomorrow? I keep wondering if maybe tomorrow the lid comes off! Where to put the traps??? Last chance to get the charts out and debate the relative merits of AMZN, Yhoo and ebay <G>.

NSDQ100 MAR99 1920.00 -3300 that's as of now.

Down 33 pts. Going to hell indeed. Don't know the current lock down-limit, but it's there on the cme site, I've found it before. The number of points to lock down-limit (and up-limit) changes periodically, depending on the level of the index.
