That ought to drive the prices of options up.

It reminds me of that week in August 2011 when stocks went up or down 400+ points on the DJIA per day. At the end of the week, everyone felt like they took at ride on the big roller coasters at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, OH.

Yeah, but this is what's been going on for over a month now and so far we're looking at pretty clear upside/downside limits.  Funny how uptrends are so orderly compared to the down.  Kind of shows the emotional component kicking in.

It's when the indexes finally kick their way though the limits (ether down thru collapsing support or up past resistance) that we got something new.

Perhaps it was the equivalent of the Titanic bouncing across the jagged edge of the iceberg.
