I want Brits to invest in stocks. That’s it.

There is a huge problem in crypto.

After last week's complete meltdown in the altcoin market, I noticed that many in crypto don't actually understand basic infrastructure on the venues they're operating on.

So crypto exchanges have a liquidation engine that auto delevers their positions if there is big volatility.

What they don't seem to understand is that if there is a big enough market move, price can move faster than the engine can operate at, which can leave them in a negative balance.

Those of us from FX will remember Jan 15, 2015.

A similar issue happened there (not quite the same, but similar).

What is also apparent is many seem to have misunderstood what a stop loss is and how they work...

When a stop gets executed, it changes from a limit to a market order.

So in normal market conditions, a sell stop would active to a market buy order.

But if something like Friday happens where the book depth evaporates and no liquidity, then there's no bid to sell to if you're long!

That means there's no stop execution, obviously.

Which to an extent is good, because it might mean there's no internalisation from the exchange (hmmm, maybe).

But really, what has been highlighted is that market makers, especially in altcoins, have proven there is no fundamental basis of altcoins existing.

I think we all knew that, but here's the difference. 

If a market shock happens in stocks, market makers can still judge where information gaps are and because there are actual fundamentals associated with profitability so they might quote wider, but they're not necessarily going to step out like they did in altcoins because...

Altcoins don't have any real fundamentals... while everyone is leveraged long.

That means pain and self reinforcing behaviour of downside.
