If such an event like this happened during regular trading hours, where a technical glitch caused a sudden market halt, there's a situation where a random black swan event during the long downtime could severely jeopardize one's account. A stop loss in such situation is useless.

Would be good for high-performance options trading functionality as it seems like a more robust speculative trading vehicle over futures given the technical risks. Something like cash-settled options would be the only way to truly protect traders.
