CBOE Breaks (Again)
Gold market halts trading yesterday for 20 seconds, allowing time for a massive sell off of 1000+ contracts…
NASDAQ goes dark for 3 Hours A Couple of Weeks Ago, Allowing the rescue of Apple Shares…
Now the CBOE goes dark again…this is what started the cascade that Darked the NASDAQ!!!
Watch out…something is brewing out there my friends!!!
SNIP
The last time CBOE suffered an outage similar to this, it led to the NASDARK debacle and 3 hours of radio silence from the largest (and most liquid) exchange in the world:

Something is fixing to happen…
A new take down in the PM’s, glitches causing market halts on an almost daily basis now, strange trades going in or being withdrawn during these “glitches”. A run up in stocks, even though the Bond market is quickly getting out of control. A run up in yields on the benchmark 10 yr Treasury, Oil supporting around $108 even though it seems Obama has backed off on Syria…
Something is going to happen, and I think it may happen sooner rather than later…
Huge gold trade trips circuit breaker, prompts 20 second halt: Nanex says; CME calls it a ‘pause’
A large sell order among gold-futures contracts caused a circuit breaker to trip and shut down electronic trading on Globex for 20 seconds early Thursday, according to high-frequency trading scourge Nanex Research. That was the longest halt Nanex has on record for a widely traded futures contract.
Specifically at 2:54:05 a.m. Eastern time, about 2,000 December gold futures contracts GCZ3 -0.99% traded in a second, taking prices down from $1,354.80 to $1,344.50 and a trip in the circuit breaker shut down trading for 20 seconds.

Looks like someone needed 20 seconds to dump some naked shorts onto the market (thereby suppressing the price of gold) that mightn’t have been bought up by anyone in regular trading.
And since this is December gold, you can expect the currency to collapse before December. Whomever holds this short gold position will be able to settle in worthless cash rather than deliver the gold as contracted, because of rule changes that allow for cash settlements.
Right now the price suppression is allowing them to buy up real gold cheaper, and when the contracts are due for the gold they’re short, the contract will be settled in valueless money.
THE PM MARKETS ARE TOTALLY CORRUPT! NAKED SHORTS, WTF FAKE GOLD DICTATING THE PRICE OF REAL GOLD THE COMEX AND CFTC ARE BOGUS . AVOID MONEX METALS , THEY FAILED TO MENTION THE POWER OF NAKED SHORTS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE EXPERTS. JPM GS FED ALL CORRUPT PURE EVIL THIS WORLD SUCKS
THIS JUST IN:In a stunning development, two JP Morgan whistleblowers have confessed that the bank manipulates the gold and silver markets. This is truly a shocking admission by the courageous JP Morgan whistleblowers. In a blockbuster King World News interview, London metals trader Andrew Maguire told KWN that the two JP Morgan employees came directly to him with hard evidence that the bank was actively manipulating the gold and silver markets. CLASS ACTION ANYONE?
They tried to kill mcguire…so he might have been a threat.
