 I'm showing many trades below that down to 1314.00 without a halt. What
 gives? Something to do with spike high last night?

I show we were offered limit down at 10:36 CST.  The new lows to 1314.00 were 
more than 10 minutes later at 10:51 CST and it was not offered limit at the 
end of the 10 minute period.  The rule states:

Down only. Once a limit offer has been established, trading can occur at or   
    above this limit for 10 minutes or until 2:30 p.m. Chicago Time (CT). 
Trading               will halt for two minutes if the primary futures 
contract is limit offer at the end of the 10 minutes or at 2:30 p.m. CT. 
Before 2:30 p.m. CT, trading will resume with the 5% limit in effect; after 
2:30 p.m. CT, the 10% limit will be in effect.

Here is a link from our website with the whole rule:
