Alsi Futures 23Sept10

I see that the last price, when the alsi closed yesterday, was 25675. This morning the MTM price is 25783. I understand that adjustments are made during the course of the evening but this adjustment is more than 100 points. How does this work?

I have been following the same and it looks like they take the index at 17h00 the previous day (or closely related to that)....not quite sure though.

If yesterdays close was used there'd be a gap but now I'm not sure.

Eish, that might just bush S&P500 below technical level of 1131? Big Selling might kick in on the S&P 500 unless some + news from the job fig.

Bush S&P500 - lol was that on purpose or was it your subconscious taking over? The B and P keys are too far on the keyboard for a finger slip.
