I have not heard of Goldman doing something like this except under extraordinary circumstances . . . i.e., an anticipated Trump win.

Goldman Sachs not accepting stop loss orders on Mexican Peso (MXN)- Livesquawk

Livesquawk picking up some trader chatter

Apparently from a Goldies client. Unconfirmed but doing the rounds.

That's a sharp warning to all you folks trading over the election. Banks like Goldman's are feeding our liquidity, if they make changes at the top, it's likely to feed down the line to our broker liquidity providers.

The Peso has been gaining as the market leans towards Clinton.

BTW, Cavuto reported the same thing re: Goldman Sachs not accepting stop loss orders on the Peso

If Goldman Sachs is not doing it, that means that Hillary isn't as well...

This means that Goldman is refusing to accept a stop loss order (i.e. a trade executed when the peso falls below a certain amount), which is likely to happen if TRUMP wins or has a better than expected showing later this afternoon.

Certainly could be an early peek into the exit poll results. The timing seems to coincide exactly.

Yes, as the MSM keeps telling everyone that Hillary will win.

Correct!

Hence the "(MAGA!)" OP title

It could only be positive. BTW, the market has given up half of its daily high too.

maybe someone else has replied or can answer better but a Stop-Loss Order for a LONG investor (someone that bets the value will increase) enacts a sell at a certain price point.

They're kinda like an insurance policy so you only take a certain amount of loss.

If my guess is correct a lot of shorts would have been put in yesterday as the market peaked expecting a Brexit like crash on Wed.

By eliminating the stop loss orders the return on the short contracts could be exponentially greater the further the market crashes after the election, then there's a buying cycle and the market etches back to pre-election levels.

it's raining money.

Earlier when the Dow Jones was up 140 points the CNBC talking heads were attributing it to Hillary's ascendancy to the throne.

Now the DJ is up only 68 points. I wonder what happened?
