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.

[2016-06-13 09:23:49] asdfman : there is a big difference [2016-06-13 09:23:56] Yumi : the leverage you have set on your position [2016-06-13 09:24:20] asdfman : how does that differ from the "current leverage" [2016-06-13 09:25:01] Yumi : do you have isolated margin or cross margin? [2016-06-13 09:25:04] wurstgelee : leverage doesnt matter for that. if u go long 100 conts and sell $5 higher, u make the same amount of $BTC if u have 10x or 50x leverage [2016-06-13 09:26:12] Yumi : leverage only matters for your liquidation price [2016-06-13 09:26:53] asdfman : so if I go long 50x and sell higher @50x i make 50x no matter what it say the current leverage is, on the sell-window? [2016-06-13 09:27:18] asdfman : comma error.. sorry [2016-06-13 09:27:49] Yumi : if you buy 1 contract at 100 and then sell it at 110 you make 10 profit [2016-06-13 09:28:26] Yumi : leverage only decide when you get liquidated when trade goes against you [2016-06-13 09:31:51] Yumi : if you have 1 btc and use 50x leverge you can open position up to 50 btc in size, but even small change in price in wrong direction will liquidate you [2016-06-13 09:47:09] asdfman : Thanks :) [2016-06-13 09:48:06] Bacon futures trader : dump it [2016-06-13 09:51:17] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: Sell 21 @ 687.40 [2016-06-13 09:51:17] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: Sell 4500 @ 687.21 [2016-06-13 09:51:27] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: Sell 12500 @ 686.99 [2016-06-13 09:54:28] Bacon futures trader : dip buyersmight get rekt her [2016-06-13 09:55:18] BTCDJS : Bacon futures trader: yeah theres gonna definitely be a retrace. [2016-06-13 09:55:36] BTCDJS : low 600s even bellow 600 [2016-06-13 09:59:10] micmix : I'm glad everyone knows what's going to happen. Make sure to bet your money on it :wink: [2016-06-13 09:59:43] lockhedge : micmix: i'm currently experiencing timeouts and "Bad Request" errors on the API, do you also have any issues? [2016-06-13 10:00:01] micmix : lockhedge: let me check the logs [2016-06-13 10:00:34] micmix : lockhedge: nope, all good here [2016-06-13 10:00:45] lockhedge : micmix: thanks, it seems that i only have issues with the BitMEX api [2016-06-13 10:01:23] tscha : Wally/Sam, you here? [2016-06-13 10:02:26] BTCDJS : micmix: even the ego needs a little correction every now and again [2016-06-13 10:03:02] BitMEX_Arthur : tscha: HI how can I help [2016-06-13 10:03:42] micmix : BTCDJS: after playing this game for many years I'm ready to admit that I can't predict the future :smile: [2016-06-13 10:03:50] Yumi : BitMEX_Arthur: how come funding rate cap was stealthy changed from 1.125% daily to 1.125% every 8 hours [2016-06-13 10:04:15] BitMEX_Arthur : Yumi: The funding cap was always on a per period basis [2016-06-13 10:04:24] BitMEX_Arthur : We just increased the frequency of when it is charged [2016-06-13 10:04:25] BTCDJS : micmix: one day Ill be ready too. but for now Im a sooth sayer [2016-06-13 10:04:37] tscha : BitMEX_Arthur: `Funding pays out every 8 hours starting at 14:00 (12:00 UTC). Buyers pay the .XBTUSDPI8H Index interest rate. Sellers receive the .XBTUSDPI8H Index interest rate.` --> you should mention quote funding rate and base funding rate too, otherwise it's not entirely correct [2016-06-13 10:04:58] Yumi : so if you change to charing funding rate every hour, the cap will be 1.125% an hour? [2016-06-13 10:05:22] stf28 : 1% after this night already ?? crazy !! [2016-06-13 10:05:44] tscha : premium rate is just part of the funding rate, but not all of it [2016-06-13 10:05:51] stf28 : if everyone turns short we'll have the same problem of fundings [2016-06-13 10:07:00] Bacon futures trader : That's like > 3% per day [2016-06-13 10:08:45] Yumi : tscha: it said in email "If the Bitfinex lending rates are lower than the premium the swap traded at over the past 8 hours, the funding rate will be increased to the level of the premium." [2016-06-13 10:09:02] Yumi : so its like instead of, not additional [2016-06-13 10:09:08] Yumi : at least as I understand it [2016-06-13 10:10:44] BitMEX_Arthur : If the Quote - Base rate is < the premium index value, we use the premium index value [2016-06-13 10:11:04] BitMEX_Arthur : But the rate is floored at the Quote - Base rate [2016-06-13 10:11:10] Yumi : BitMEX_Arthur: in the email from 29th of May it said "The daily funding rate for all BitMEX swaps will now be capped at 75% of the Initial Margin minus the Maintenance Margin." it never was mention cap got changed to "per funding period" [2016-06-13 10:11:22] tscha : ok, this should be made a bit more clear in the funding rate tooltip on contract details - for the people who didn't read the mail [2016-06-13 10:11:39] BitMEX_Arthur : Yes that is the global level, also it is clearly explained in the swaps guide [2016-06-13 10:13:29] tscha : in the swaps guide, it is explained well [2016-06-13 10:17:00] stf28 : so this funding rates correlates this market to spot ? [2016-06-13 10:18:00] tscha : BitMEX_Arthur: btw, I think the tooltip on `funding rate` in the contract details is wrong. It says that the funding rate `is created by substracting the quote currency's daily funding rate from the base currency's daily funding rate` - shouldn't it be the other way round? Because `Funding Rate = Funding Quote Index - Funding Base Index` [2016-06-13 10:18:49] Yumi : BitMEX_Arthur: swap with 9% DPE, 800K outstanding liquidation and 1.125% funding fee every 8 hours is not tradable, and you know it [2016-06-13 10:19:47] BitMEX_Arthur : Yumi: We believe the high rates will correct this situation shortly. The liquidation order's bid price will rise to the mark price at 12:00 GMT, anyone who wants to earn a high rate of interest will sell into that order [2016-06-13 10:20:43] micmix : lockhedge: I've got couple of API engine errors and websocket disconnect just now [2016-06-13 10:20:45] Yumi : yes, I understand thats the plan, unless we pump again [2016-06-13 10:21:18] BitMEX_Arthur : Yumi: The high rates have already caused the swap price to trade around the mark price which ultimately is the goal [2016-06-13 10:21:27] BitMEX_Arthur : tscha: taking a look at that [2016-06-13 10:21:55] BitMEX_Wally : micmix: One of the API servers was rebooted briefly [2016-06-13 10:22:08] micmix : BitMEX_Wally: ok, cool [2016-06-13 10:24:46] BitMEX_Wally : Yumi: Why are people trading it then? [2016-06-13 10:25:30] BitMEX_Arthur : tscha: thank you for pointing that out, we will update the description [2016-06-13 10:25:44] tscha : no prob [2016-06-13 10:28:43] Yumi : BitMEX_Wally: well you know answer [2016-06-13 10:29:43] BTCDJS : noobs [2016-06-13 10:30:02] rapidtrades : regarding sept, rapidtrades : BitMEX_Wally: could smone buy those few thousand contracts to 1977 then place a bid at 1900 right away, rekting most shorts?

[2016-06-13 10:47:52] BitMEX_Wally : tscha: We don't collect that information.

[2016-06-13 12:44:27] BitMEX_Wally : If you pay or earn fees/funding that goes into Realised PNL.

[2016-06-13 12:45:28] BitMEX_Wally : Cross margin means your entire account balance is used to fund the position, which keeps the liquidation price as far away as possible [2016-06-13 12:45:44] luckynuke : BitMEX_Wally: no i want to lend my bitcoin [2016-06-13 12:45:55] Bitcoingirl : @BitMEX_Wally Do I want to do that? Can I rely on DPE kicking in? [2016-06-13 12:46:03] Bitcoingirl : Like would I lose less if I make DPE take the hit?
