This is a mirror of the original BitMEX trollbox archive that used to be online here. BitMEX disabled their archive after the DDOS attack so I have decided to make my mirror publicly available.
Well now, a few days after I made this mirror available to the public, the original archive from BitMEX is online again. But since it is still limited (neutered to the last few hundred messages) I will keep my FULL mirror alive.

Someone could gain access to your account and change your address without you noticing.

[2016-06-04 15:15:35] rapidtrades : I dunno what's funnier, the fact that he thinks his opinion is valuable to be classified as a ''secret'' or his delusion that others feel the same [2016-06-04 15:16:55] sq : ggwp: I'm flat, just like your mom ?

[2016-06-04 16:28:52] rapidtrades : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=394123.0 [2016-06-04 16:31:38] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: Sell 4159 @ 570.54 [2016-06-04 16:35:58] ggwp : hahahaha [2016-06-04 16:49:48] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : i did not cancel my orders. I just logged in and all my order including my open position are gone [2016-06-04 16:50:44] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : my orders weren't hit. why are they removed? [2016-06-04 16:55:37] Mr Blue : Computer said no [2016-06-04 16:56:13] Mr Blue : oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd: O.j mate, if you didn't get liquidated I'd message support [2016-06-04 16:58:12] ggwp : they were orders [2016-06-04 16:58:18] ggwp : not open positions [2016-06-04 16:58:41] mrp1nk : oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd: did you have 4159 contracts open? ^^ [2016-06-04 16:59:20] Mr Blue : True [2016-06-04 17:00:05] BitMEX_Wally : oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd: If you have cross margin enabled and a position is about to be liquidated then we cancel open orders to free up margin [2016-06-04 17:00:26] BitMEX_Wally : If you look in your Order History and hover over the 'Canceled' status it will give the full message [2016-06-04 17:00:37] BitMEX_Wally : For example 'Canceled: Position is in liquidation Submission from www.bitmex.com' [2016-06-04 17:01:57] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : but basicly i wanted those orders to be picked up if my position got liquidated [2016-06-04 17:04:29] BitMEX_Wally : When a position is liquidated all open orders for that symbol are canceled [2016-06-04 17:04:42] BitMEX_Wally : This is in case you had other orders open to close it out [2016-06-04 17:05:21] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : ok. i kind of get it, but it's not how I would want it [2016-06-04 17:05:38] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : or at least I planned differently [2016-06-04 17:05:46] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : and now i don't know how to set up my trade [2016-06-04 17:06:07] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : it forces me to do it with a bot [2016-06-04 17:06:23] BitMEX_Wally : You could use a Stop order [2016-06-04 17:06:34] BitMEX_Wally : To stop sell if the price drops [2016-06-04 17:07:06] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : should I be able to find this in the documentation? [2016-06-04 17:07:37] BitMEX_Wally : https://www.bitmex.com/app/orderTypeFAQ [2016-06-04 17:07:45] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : no i dont want a stop order [2016-06-04 17:07:59] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : i just had an order way below my liquidation price [2016-06-04 17:08:08] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : that order has no reason to be removed [2016-06-04 17:08:16] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : a stop order wouldn't help me [2016-06-04 17:08:33] BitMEX_Wally : A stop order would stop you being liquidated by closing the position before liquidation [2016-06-04 17:08:40] BitMEX_Wally : You would't lose as much that way [2016-06-04 17:08:44] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : ah ok [2016-06-04 17:08:49] BitMEX_Wally : Then your other orders would have remained open [2016-06-04 17:08:56] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : ok thank you [2016-06-04 17:09:12] oomdwmvhrmtihsughzgd : that sounds good [2016-06-04 17:09:39] BitMEX_Wally : Cool, let us know if you have any questions [2016-06-04 17:11:34] mrp1nk : BitMEX_Wally: does it work if i put a stop order 1 cent above the liquidation price? [2016-06-04 17:12:30] BitMEX_Wally : The mark price might move 10 cents in 1 ticket [2016-06-04 17:12:47] BitMEX_Wally : And liquidations happen immediately [2016-06-04 17:13:02] BitMEX_Wally : So I would recommend you put the stop price 25 cents above your liquidation price [2016-06-04 17:13:50] mrp1nk : ok, thx [2016-06-04 17:39:35] elmorte : @rapidtrades I'm short here, long spot...tiny arbitrage if I close it carefully [2016-06-04 17:40:03] elmorte : Btw, the sheckel coin...cracked me up [2016-06-04 17:40:28] elmorte : And @Mr Blue 's Computer said no [2016-06-04 17:41:36] elmorte : Turns out the strategy I'm following is what Arthur wrote about in one of the emails when they first introduced funding [2016-06-04 17:43:22] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : elmorte: Ah, the strategy to collect funding interest fees? [2016-06-04 17:43:34] elmorte : Yup [2016-06-04 17:43:53] elmorte : Atm it's something like 30% pa [2016-06-04 17:45:32] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : elmorte: Yes, very close. Great returns if you can make it work [2016-06-04 17:45:51] elmorte : Great success! [2016-06-04 17:46:02] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : I would definitely do it if I had more money that wasn't in bitcoin haha [2016-06-04 17:47:20] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : Although I'd probably just buy bitcoin with that too and not short. The higher gains are too tempting [2016-06-04 17:47:25] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : *potential gains [2016-06-04 17:47:28] elmorte : Oh, I was "lucky" to liquidate a significant portion on finex at 530...spot went to 570 and I was clueless as to wtf to do [2016-06-04 17:47:52] elmorte : Yeah bud, but every big pump has been followed by a big dump [2016-06-04 17:48:26] elmorte : I want mentally prepared to take another hit....buy in at 570 and wake up to 530 [2016-06-04 17:48:34] elmorte : Wasn't [2016-06-04 17:48:43] elmorte : So I hedged [2016-06-04 17:48:58] elmorte : With tiny arbitrage, like 4$ [2016-06-04 17:49:34] elmorte : Thinking if walls come crumbling down, bitmex premium will turn to discount [2016-06-04 17:49:59] elmorte : Then I had a possible arb of 4-8$ [2016-06-04 17:50:49] elmorte : Then I read Arthur's email again and realized I could just let this ecosystem be for a while.... [2016-06-04 17:51:46] elmorte : If you follow, I'm a bit lazy/hazy with words [2016-06-04 17:51:51] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : elmorte: makes sense. If I wanted to forget about the price for a while I'd probably do something similar [2016-06-04 17:54:11] elmorte : Yeah...Wasn't mentally ready for the swings [2016-06-04 17:58:55] elmorte : Admins, is there back data to calculate the historical funding rate over a longer term period? [2016-06-04 18:03:07] BitMEX_Sam : elmorte: What we have is in https://www.bitmex.com/app/index/.XBTBON [2016-06-04 18:03:15] BitMEX_Sam : Beyond that you would have to query BFX directly [2016-06-04 18:03:55] esuvari : is it possible to set a stop loss to a limit order after it's filled? [2016-06-04 18:05:39] ButchPooch : What's the difference between unrealized PNL and realizes PNL? [2016-06-04 18:06:26] esuvari : BitMEX_Sam: is it possible to set a stop loss to a limit order after it's filled? [2016-06-04 18:06:38] BitMEX_Sam : esuvari: I'm not sure what you mean [2016-06-04 18:06:43] ggwp : ButchPooch: ask sleger [2016-06-04 18:06:45] BitMEX_Sam : Ah you're talking about a trigger order. [2016-06-04 18:07:03] BitMEX_Sam : We support trigger orders via the API but not yet in the UI. [2016-06-04 18:07:22] esuvari : yes, I gave a regular limit order. it's filled. but I want to assign a stop loss to it. [2016-06-04 18:07:34] BitMEX_Sam : esuvari: Just open a stop limit order for the same quantity. [2016-06-04 18:07:57] esuvari : wouldn't that open a new position? [2016-06-04 18:08:22] BitMEX_Sam : ButchPooch: Typically unrealized PNL is PNL on open positions, and realized is that on closed or the reduced segment of a position; because of https://www.bitmex.com/app/dynamicProfitEqualisation profit remains unrealized until the daily/weekly rebalance [2016-06-04 18:08:33] esuvari : oh apparently not. ok then, thank you. [2016-06-04 18:08:40] BitMEX_Sam : esuvari: No, BitMEX does positioning the normal way - you cannot have multiple positions per contract, they net [2016-06-04 18:09:17] BitMEX_Sam : On many crypto platforms if you buy 10 and sell 5, you have two positions, +10 and -5 - here on BitMEX you would just have one for +5 [2016-06-04 18:09:44] elmorte : BitMEX_Sam: thanks. So their API would have the historical data beyond the last 100 min? [2016-06-04 18:10:04] BitMEX_Sam : elmorte: Possibly - I'm not sure of their historical availability. You may have to do some digging [2016-06-04 18:10:08] BitMEX_Sam : You can get much more than the last 100 min from our API. [2016-06-04 18:10:54] BitMEX_Sam : elmorte: I would recommend a query like https://www.bitmex.com/api/v1/trade/bucketed?binSize=1h&symbol=.USDBON&count=100&start=0&reverse=true [2016-06-04 18:11:02] BitMEX_Sam : See https://www.bitmex.com/api/explorer/#!/Trade/Trade_getBucketed for documentation on that. [2016-06-04 18:11:39] elmorte : Mah man! Another three fiddy for ya. Cheers bud [2016-06-04 18:19:02] elmorte : BitMEX_Sam: was it a pain in the ass implementing new coin pairs, or you already got the templates sorted? [2016-06-04 18:19:23] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah it's all templated out. It takes a minimum amount of time now [2016-06-04 18:20:45] elmorte : Way to go. Do you have MM bot for each though? Do they require adjustments? [2016-06-04 18:45:31] Mr Blue : So if we have positive ROE at 8pm we get something? Or fee taken out? [2016-06-04 18:47:23] mrp1nk : BitMEX_Sam: it would be really nice if you could add the liquidation price as well as the possibility to adjust the leverage in the calculator [2016-06-04 18:47:48] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : Mr Blue: Rebalance is still 24 hours only. Funding has changed to be every 8 hours. In an hour and 13 minutes, if you have a long position open, you will pay .025% of its value. If you have a short position open, you will earn .025% of its value. [2016-06-04 18:48:23] Mr Blue : IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb: thanks mate [2016-06-04 18:49:17] Mr Blue : mrp1nk: I can't downgrade x as all in but I've worked out what's going on now mate [2016-06-04 18:50:37] Mr Blue : mrp1nk: liquidation = $548 I paid average 568.80 [2016-06-04 18:51:59] Mr Blue : Was x25, started at x10 and built up as had to buy more as price dropped to lower my average price [2016-06-04 18:54:13] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : Mr Blue: Nice position. Just took a small short in case we head lower again but I like your trade better [2016-06-04 18:54:44] Mr Blue : IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb: I've already took profit ?
