even if so, no one does something like that with out a reason, i think it's more like a precurser to what is really about to happen....
I agree with you its got to be some reason behind this manuipulation ..
98% of the time whatever media says its complete BS !!! just another excuse of market manipulators ...

Why are you convinced it's manipulation? Based on the Weekly and Monthly charts, a big move down in every asset class has been waiting to happen for over a week now...

It just happened in one day instead of three months.

I'm mad that I wasn't at the charts this morning. I take signals on Weekly and Daily, and since there were no definite setups as of last night, I spent the morning doing other things. D'oh!

I don't know about manipulation. But it is quite odd that all the yen pairs moved the most today. Perhaps there is something...

There is something broken somewhere...
We might see another German Billionaire or French Financier kill himself in the coming days...

Yeah, Yen has been doing that. A few days ago when equity took its first big tumble in a while, Yen strengthened. But Gold predictably took off today, too.

Apparently someone made a mistake and hit b instead of m may have fed the sell of already in progress. PnG is saying there were errors in there stock and IIRC S&P e-minis may have had some bad trades as well. ACN stock went from ~$40 down to $0.01 and there were 19 seperate 100 share buys down at that level within 7 seconds.

That's not really possible, all asset classes had huge moves, credit market included.
An error on the american S&P can't really explain why the EUR/JPY crashed.

Well almost everything was going down prior to it, probably on fear of greece. Then someone makde the mistake and the drop was larger then it should have been, just my theory. Looking at the S&P it was already dropping prior to the mistake. Should have made it clear, I dont think the mistake was the cause but, Greece was, but it may have fed the fear already there.

That's the key : fear was feeding on itself.
I mean, that's my opinion.

If you look at the gbp/chf it was already dropping around 4am est during the London session, so I dont think there was any direct manipulation and the mistake just fed it. Suck now that all trades will be busted, lots of traders are gonna be angry.

Nasdaq to cancel all trades in that time frame of 2:40ish to 3:00 or so. Let's see what the currency market decides to do.

I made some excellent pips but I came out early because of NFP week. During NFP week the market normally trades in a tighter range than normal. I have never seen a selloff like this during NFP week!!!!! I guess the NFP numbers are being totally overshadowed by the Greece situation. I am a creature of habit and that prevented me from latching onto these mega moves!!!!!

No, I don't buy that "this was an error, market is acctually ok, just a mistake - nothing to see here, move along, folks" propaganda.

That "error" occured after DOW had already fallen 300 points and - people, how do you feel living in a world where large scale financial meltdown depends only on ... just "N" on keyboard separating b and m.
That's pure absurd.
