I was up 30pts for a ES Futures trade. There is a 830pm announcement in 5min time. I set my Stop Loss 5pts away and Target Price 20pts away.
1 second just before 830pm, all orders from the queue is removed. Suddenly my Stop Loss was triggered and I was filled 25pts down.
In less than 1 second, I went for +30pts to +5pts
