there may be a freeze on automated trading at a smaller loss.

Curbs come into effect with a 200 point move. There is a pause (an hour I think) with a 500 point move, and I think a complete closure with a 10% move.

As George Will said several years ago, when a movie theatre catches fire, do they lock all the doors for five minutes until calm returns? If someone wants to sell their stock, they should be allowed to do so, at their own peril.
