How can trading continue if they were down?

It would be relatively straightforward to tunnel traffic (especially api calls) to route around (or through) run-of-the-mill DDOS. Were I setting up an exchange, I would probably make it a feature for highly valued customers, charting websites, etc.

They are only charging $299/month, so no way they can resist huge attacks. Real DDOS protection is thousands per month I bet incapsula dumps any exchanges because of constant attacks. Solution is decentralized exchanging somehow, big freenet exchange that has multiple escrow options with web of trust or stick to IRC trading.

Enterprise level protection costs much more than that.

Looks like the company http://www.incapsula.com is not confident enough to stop/mitigate DDOS attack?

How can company like that says they do DDOS PROTECTION and NOT ABLE TO PROTECT A SITE from DDOS?

Currently it's working up and fast for me.

ddos protection outfits are largely scams with exception of cloudflare for business. Once you get slammed on a regular basis by ddos attacks it's likely the provider will just dump you as too risky a customer. It's too easy to rent botnets or rent ddos services now, pop on any crime forum and there are hundreds of listings for cheap attacks you can snowball into one huge attack no anti-ddos service can survive.

incapsula is the leading exception in 2013.

Incapsula is the leading DDOS protection company in the world, but nothing really can stop DDOS.
Anyhow site seems to be working for me.

Sure you can stop the attack. You add enough capacity with withstand any of them. That's how you handle them. No magic software or hardware that can do a perfect job filtering syn floods and spoofed IPs/routes. But people try their best. I have lots of experience dealing with extremely high flood attacks. What burns me the most is that tracing the source of the attacks is very tricky. That leaves my lawyer out of a job because there's no one to sue!

DDOS attack > any capacity that you can provide.
