Crude flash crash about 15 mins ago… scary

Am trading overnight crude…. was long from 47.70, crude was trading around 47.9… then all of a sudden i lose my connection to IB or about 60 seconds… when it’s restored i see that on the 30sec bar chart there has been a dip of $0.25 while I was disconnected. the price had already recovered but had i been using stops i would have been stopped out. the scary part was the loss of connection to the IB server during the flash crash. WTF?????? no more crude futures for me HOLY SHIT…
