At the moment I would be more worries about a market halt than where the bottom is. Make sure you don’t have money invested that you cannot afford to loose or get locked for an indefinite period of time.

Most likely stock markets will be suspended to protect the hyper wealthy.

We'll have to wait until Sunday night... but if that Dragonfly candle I've marked out remains as such by midnight on Sunday, expect fireworks on Monday. Look at the weekly history of Bitcoin where those Dragonfly DOJI's have appeared - the returns are insane.
There's good reason to call the bottom as in, the RSI offering past resistance has now become support.

Because that made the rich richer, the safety is to allow the super wealthy time to sell into rallies on the way down.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostWhy din't the stock market safety switch activate when they rallied up 500%+ in the last few years!!

Market closed today with yet another gravestone DOJI candle on resistance - Monday / Tuesday is going to be a bloodbath.

Stock markets closing after Monday?
Rumour mill doing the works suggesting US stock markets will close after Monday's trading day comes to an end until control of the outbreak is brought under control. Very very interesting times ahead.
If only there was a market you could trade that never closed down.
