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.

You have access to more than 50 million trollbox posts. This is more than 7 gigabyte of data hosted on a $5 server so please be patient or consider a donation

[2015-08-15 00:23:21] TraderStefan : Ah I see, thanks
[2015-08-15 00:40:55] TraderStefan : ETH7D crashing hard
[2015-08-15 01:06:15] TraderStefan : Now it's doing the opposite of crashing hard ;)
[2015-08-15 01:07:14] j8 : some real pump action goin on.
[2015-08-15 01:07:25] miratrader : yeah, I like volatility, you can enter/close position several times per day
[2015-08-15 01:09:00] miratrader : very dangerous though, we don't run any of our bots on ETH
[2015-08-15 01:38:47] miratrader : one bot on Poloniex tries to push ETH up but the sell pressure is very high
[2015-08-15 01:43:20] j8 : there was a 200 btc buy wall at 0.00695 on the way down, which got sold. then there was a 200 btc buy at 0.007 when the price was down around 0.006. someone likes that price
[2015-08-15 01:46:10] miratrader : yep, someone is trying to keep it around 0.007.
[2015-08-15 01:49:20] miratrader : 1050 ETH bot doesn't want to push above 0.0065 now
[2015-08-15 01:50:38] goat : BitMEX_Sam: new trollbox is awesome
[2015-08-15 01:50:39] goat : great work
[2015-08-15 02:07:20] BitMEX_Sam : Thanks @goat
[2015-08-15 02:14:23] j8 : miratrader: 61.8% fib line from the whole rise is right there
[2015-08-15 02:16:08] TraderStefan : New trollbox does block part of the menu. I know you can collapse it, but could be confusing for new users https://i.imgur.com/159VjCJ.jpg
[2015-08-15 02:16:08] j8 : and 50% was bounced off at 0.0057. so i guess it's a logical place to rest for a little while.
[2015-08-15 02:17:44] BitMEX_Sam : Thanks @TraderStefan, trying to figure out what's the least in the the way and most intuitive here. I think it is better than what came before (a lot less scrolling) but there are likely still optimizations to be done
[2015-08-15 02:18:25] miratrader : j8, yeah, I shorted from the top of the down channel twice now, will close around that level
[2015-08-15 02:19:11] TraderStefan : BitMEX_Sam: Yeah not having to scroll is definitely nice
[2015-08-15 02:56:53] uiop : BitMEX_Sam: ui render nicely now after upgrading to that newer firefox
[2015-08-15 03:24:27] BitMEX_Sam : Good. It should also render well on the old one, fixed the issue
[2015-08-15 04:11:28] TrevinHofmann : The trollbox is so important it needs to be fixed?
[2015-08-15 04:12:56] TrevinHofmann : BitMEX_Sam: Have you considered selling API calls for something like 1 satoshi each?
[2015-08-15 04:30:31] splash : How do I make a stoploss order?
[2015-08-15 04:30:59] BitMEX_Arthur : Stop Limit orders are not enabled yet in the UI it is coming soon
[2015-08-15 06:33:01] TrevinHofmann : https://github.com/thofmann/bitmex-swagger
[2015-08-15 07:05:27] TrevinHofmann : https://github.com/thofmann/bitmex-websocket
[2015-08-15 07:06:44] splash : BitMEX_Arthur: great :)
[2015-08-15 07:25:03] TrevinHofmann : https://github.com/thofmann/bitmex
[2015-08-15 07:25:32] TrevinHofmann : Got the basics down :)
[2015-08-15 07:58:49] cengel : lol when i highlight the logo top left it floats around like a ghost. wtf
[2015-08-15 08:03:31] j8 : so unnecessary.
[2015-08-15 08:11:04] cengel : honestly feels liked a spoofed site, doesnt even show my username
[2015-08-15 08:59:58] billyboy402 : i am seeing this LTC chat , it spike to 12.00 i thought market maker cant push ppl to margin call
[2015-08-15 09:00:37] j8 : they can't, it wasn't a forced liquidation, probably an accident.
[2015-08-15 09:01:35] billyboy402 : oh so a noob brought it all
[2015-08-15 09:02:06] billyboy402 : have to remember to see my close at high spike then just encase it happen again
[2015-08-15 09:03:13] j8 : yeah there's been quite a few of those
[2015-08-15 11:15:40] cloud : just so you guys know, I get a URI error when try to scan QR code from schildbach wallet
[2015-08-15 11:16:07] BitMEX_Arthur : Thanks for the headsup
[2015-08-15 12:34:49] Juba : and where do I close down the full screen chat?
[2015-08-15 12:36:29] BitMEX_Sam : Sorry @Juba, there's a bug in that right now (header got cut off), please refresh
[2015-08-15 12:46:51] BitMEX_Sam : cloud: Thanks for the warning, downloaded the wallet and found the issue, schildbach/bitcoinj are very strict about `bitcoin:` uris. Fix is rolling out right now
[2015-08-15 12:47:16] BitMEX_Sam : Also @everyone your username is back in the header like before
[2015-08-15 13:28:55] Juba : ok thx
[2015-08-15 16:59:01] goat : looks like the eth pump team isnt doing so well
[2015-08-15 16:59:09] goat : those 1050 walls are so mechanized lol
[2015-08-15 17:49:04] centurygate : when the devs have to dump a second million ETH or they won't have runway, that is when this will turn into a scream party all the way back do .002
[2015-08-15 17:49:17] centurygate : do = "to"
[2015-08-15 17:59:33] j8 : i don't think i've ever seen the `BVOL24` index this low
[2015-08-15 18:03:25] goat : centurygate: i agreed, other than the obvious pump eth is very overvalued
[2015-08-15 18:11:48] centurygate : The same thing that makes it easy to crash, is what made it easy to pump 5 days ago when the float was smaller.
[2015-08-15 18:12:40] goat : yep, a lot more are coming on exchange
[2015-08-15 18:12:57] goat : just from reading the polo chat people come in and say "yes, just remembered my password"
[2015-08-15 18:13:16] goat : i think there are like 10k more asks than there were yesterday too at this point
[2015-08-15 18:13:35] goat : and ~ the same bid support, maybe +100 btc or so if anything
[2015-08-15 18:30:52] centurygate : don't underestimate the mania though
[2015-08-15 18:31:39] goat : im taking that into consideration, but i think that there are more people who will want to get out with 10x + gains from ipo than are willing to buy a coin with that high of a return already
[2015-08-15 18:32:02] centurygate : the day of reckoning will be a 10M ETH volume day across Krakena and Polo - a break that causes volume to exceed 1M on Polo is a good sign, it could happen higher though
[2015-08-15 18:32:15] centurygate : they're a part of it
[2015-08-15 18:32:23] centurygate : the 5M the devs need to harvest is a big part
[2015-08-15 18:32:30] centurygate : and the leverage speculators as well
[2015-08-15 18:32:41] goat : agreed, polo has leverage which is new to most people
[2015-08-15 18:32:44] centurygate : but nobody is competing to sell yet
[2015-08-15 18:32:52] goat : and the pumpers are probably using leverage to pump imo
[2015-08-15 18:32:58] goat : so that if something goes wrong they lose less coin
[2015-08-15 18:33:15] goat : the polo rates were 1% for btc yesterday
[2015-08-15 18:33:40] j8 : goat: does polo set the rate or is it p2p lending?
[2015-08-15 18:33:47] goat : p2p
[2015-08-15 18:33:59] goat : and we all know what inexperienced traders using leverage leads to
[2015-08-15 18:34:06] goat : a bigger fall when it happens
[2015-08-15 18:35:45] j8 : wow that's high.
[2015-08-15 18:37:35] j8 : yeah i don't have a lot of confidence in the responsible risk management of poloniex users when it comes to leverage
[2015-08-15 18:38:09] goat : me either man
[2015-08-15 18:38:25] goat : idk, i have been wathcing the ETH market action the last 2 days and its nothing short of straight manipulation
[2015-08-15 18:38:37] goat : we just saw it again with the 3x 100 btc buy walls
[2015-08-15 18:38:42] goat : people didnt panic buy like they wanted
[2015-08-15 18:38:53] goat : i think its the same person with the 1050 eth buy walls and 100 btc buy walls
[2015-08-15 18:41:40] goat : obviously no one knows their p/l except for them, and i would expect that they were in in the IPO so it's massive, but they have been burning a ton of coin trying to keep it propped up, imo they are going to cut their losses soon and end the pump
[2015-08-15 18:42:23] goat : the last 12-16 hours or so have purely looked like they are part of an exit strategy, just trying to pump a little to sell then removing bids before they get sold into
[2015-08-15 18:42:48] j8 : totally, the big orders are just pushing the market around, if they really wanted to buy that much they would have patience
[2015-08-15 18:43:47] goat : or if they wanted to buy that many they would just leave the bids, they are clearly scared imo because once sells approach the big walls they are instantly removed
[2015-08-15 18:44:25] goat : but any bids that are placed in front of those walls (people trying to "front run the pump") are sold into... in blocks of 20, 50, 75, 100 eth
[2015-08-15 18:44:32] goat : looks like someone exiting
[2015-08-15 18:45:37] goat : and im sure its their asks right on top of the pump walls too that they are getting the fish to buy into
[2015-08-15 18:47:51] goat : to put it in the words of zero hedge, eth trading on polo has been nothing short of a financial crimescene haha
[2015-08-15 18:57:55] j8 : yeah, it's been a while since a new altcoin launched with this much attention
[2015-08-15 18:59:40] j8 : 12k BTC volume on one exchange, i don't remember the mintpal pumps being quite that big
[2015-08-15 18:59:56] goat : even more in the previous days
[2015-08-15 19:00:05] goat : maybe 2 days ago i think it was 17k
[2015-08-15 19:01:30] j8 : oh wow
[2015-08-15 19:04:47] goat : weird though, when you show the 1d view on polo and mouse over the candles it shows different volume
[2015-08-15 19:15:34] j8 : yeah something's wrong there, if you add up the 4-hour candle volumes it's more like what they're reporting
[2015-08-15 19:45:10] j8 : oh, the 1 day chart only goes up to the 13th.
[2015-08-15 21:32:21] chrisxbt : Bitmex what do you think about trading XT?
[2015-08-15 21:35:50] chrisxbt : You can convert 1 BTC to 1 'OG' and 1 'XT'. You'll also be able to convert 1 OG and 1 XT to 1 BTC. OG and XT won't be withdrawable till after the fork. (and you'll have to make sure you're not sending someone XT and OG after the fork). It's quite an interesting product.
[2015-08-15 21:36:14] chrisxbt : BitMEX_Arthur: @BitMEX_Sam
[2015-08-15 21:36:43] TrevinHofmann : I don't think it'll come to that.
[2015-08-15 21:37:24] TrevinHofmann : There's already a heavy economic majority behind XT. It's not likely we'll see anywhere near a 50/50 split where there's any question of which fork will prevail.
[2015-08-15 21:38:58] chrisxbt : It still works without a 50/50 split.
[2015-08-15 21:39:57] TrevinHofmann : I suppose you're right.
[2015-08-15 21:40:28] TrevinHofmann : Even if there's a 95% chance that XT will be the preferred fork, you could still speculate on it before the fork.
[2015-08-15 21:54:21] chrisxbt : Yup.
[2015-08-15 22:05:12] chrisxbt : do you think we're at 95% already?
[2015-08-15 22:17:36] TrevinHofmann : No
[2015-08-15 22:17:59] TrevinHofmann : I've been undecided on which fork I prefer,and which would prevail.
[2015-08-15 22:18:12] TrevinHofmann : I'm feeling some strong support today, though, both from myself and the entire community.
[2015-08-15 22:19:10] TrevinHofmann : Thinking more about your suggestion, I'm starting to like the idea of trading the forks before they happen.
[2015-08-15 22:19:34] TrevinHofmann : It would be a really nice signal for the "immeasurable economic majority".
[2015-08-15 22:34:33] BitMEX_Sam : Hey TrevinHofmann, I appreciate you publishing some npm modules, do you mind putting in the description that they're "unofficial"? We have some official code that we just haven't published to npm yet
[2015-08-15 22:34:54] TrevinHofmann : Sure, no problem.
[2015-08-15 22:35:09] TrevinHofmann : And if you'd like any of those npm module names, just ask. I'd be happy to rename to something else.
[2015-08-15 22:35:25] BitMEX_Sam : Thanks, I appreciate that. I'm have a few projects in flight that will be ready for release soon
[2015-08-15 22:35:50] TrevinHofmann : Good to hear, can I ask what they are?
[2015-08-15 22:36:23] BitMEX_Sam : One is a node http server that connects to the websocket with your credentials and manages the diffing for you. So if you're using other tools, you can just hit that local http server as many times as you want at a high tick rate rather than dealing with diffing realtime data
[2015-08-15 22:36:39] TrevinHofmann : I was hoping to get around to making the `bitmex` internally use the swagger and websocket APIs to maintain a local state of the orderbooks, etc.
[2015-08-15 22:37:18] TrevinHofmann : Hmm, that sort of sounds similar. I was thinking you could pass an array of your desired orders (prices/quantities) and it would do the diffs for you to cancel/create any orders if needed.
[2015-08-15 22:37:30] BitMEX_Sam : Ah that's an interesting way to do it
[2015-08-15 22:37:30] TrevinHofmann : I won't bother if that's what you're doing.
[2015-08-15 22:37:47] BitMEX_Sam : No, I'm talking more about just getting our API consumers off the HTTP API and onto the real-time WS stream
[2015-08-15 22:38:07] BitMEX_Sam : A big issue is complexity - a lot of people don't want to implement interacting with ws updates (insert, delete, update, image), they just want to hit an endpoint and have the data
[2015-08-15 22:38:20] BitMEX_Sam : But we ratelimit that pretty heavily so if you really want fast data, you need to use the websocket
[2015-08-15 22:38:20] TrevinHofmann : Ah, ok. So this was for read-only? It would serve data from the websocket as a local REST API?
[2015-08-15 22:38:24] BitMEX_Sam : Yep
[2015-08-15 22:38:40] TrevinHofmann : That's neat.
[2015-08-15 22:38:56] BitMEX_Sam : Nice thing is, then it works with any language
[2015-08-15 22:39:02] TrevinHofmann : Last time I checked, you don't have any POST options for the websocket, right? It's only for subscribing to streams?
[2015-08-15 22:39:09] TrevinHofmann : True, that's a nice plus.
[2015-08-15 22:39:10] BitMEX_Sam : Just run the node server on localhost and poll to your heart's content with your python bot
[2015-08-15 22:39:12] BitMEX_Sam : etc
[2015-08-15 22:39:17] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah we don't do orders via the WS
[2015-08-15 22:39:41] BitMEX_Sam : With HTTP Keep-Alive it's equivalent in terms of latency, and the request/response nature of HTTP is far better suited to order placement
[2015-08-15 22:40:14] TrevinHofmann : Definitely
[2015-08-15 22:40:35] TrevinHofmann : Have you considered selling API calls? Something like 1 satoshi each?
[2015-08-15 22:40:52] BitMEX_Sam : Hah no, we've never considered that
[2015-08-15 22:41:03] BitMEX_Sam : We generally encourage people using tools, so long as they're responsible about it
[2015-08-15 22:41:26] TrevinHofmann : At the moment, somebody who wanted to trade multiple currencies, or include a lot of depth in their orders would be better off creating multiple accounts.
[2015-08-15 22:41:31] BitMEX_Sam : The ratelimits are set deliberately low to prevent anonymous abuse. If you need a higher limit we almost always grant it so long as you at least try to use the WS
[2015-08-15 22:41:45] TrevinHofmann : One per symbol. Or even one per bid/ask.
[2015-08-15 22:42:12] TrevinHofmann : Yeah, it's not an issue for me, and I assumed you'd increase the limit for legitimate requests. Just had me wondering.
[2015-08-15 22:42:22] BitMEX_Sam : It's an interesting idea
[2015-08-15 22:44:53] BitMEX_Sam : Ah here's the node server project... can't believe it took me this long to find it
[2015-08-15 22:44:54] BitMEX_Sam : https://github.com/BitMEX/websocketAdapters/tree/master/server
[2015-08-15 22:53:24] TrevinHofmann : Updated them with 'unofficial' and added a link to bitmex.com
[2015-08-15 22:53:30] TrevinHofmann : https://github.com/thofmann/bitmex
[2015-08-15 23:07:59] BitMEX_Sam : Re: OG and XT, I don't think any system for trading it has to be anywhere near that complex
[2015-08-15 23:08:29] BitMEX_Sam : It's not like there is a risk of losing coins you already hold in the case of a fork. But people want to speculate on which fork will win, and an OG/XT contract could be very interesting
[2015-08-15 23:09:10] BitMEX_Sam : It could be a simple 0-0.1 XBT prediction market-style contract.
[2015-08-15 23:10:10] TrevinHofmann : What would be the resolution condition? First to reach X block height?
[2015-08-15 23:11:00] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah that's a good way to encapsulate the question of which chain has more mining power. Maybe could also be whichever one adjusts to the highest difficulty at a certain date.
[2015-08-15 23:12:20] BitMEX_Sam : In any case that question is still a long way away, XT doesn't even have the possibility of hardforking until at least Jan 2016
[2015-08-15 23:12:36] TrevinHofmann : But we could speculate on it today ;)
[2015-08-15 23:21:46] TraderStefan : I would love to see prediction market style contracts on BitMEX
[2015-08-15 23:22:09] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah, we've talked about it a few times, it's easy to do so long as there is a reliable datasource to pull from
[2015-08-15 23:22:27] BitMEX_Sam : In the question of OG/XT, that's easy, others are more difficult but it's more or less a solved problem in most prediction markets
[2015-08-15 23:24:59] BitMEX_Sam : This is a good read by the way
[2015-08-15 23:25:00] BitMEX_Sam : https://medium.com/@octskyward/why-is-bitcoin-forking-d647312d22c1
[2015-08-15 23:25:12] BitMEX_Sam : Agh. That URL regex needs work
[2015-08-15 23:25:33] TraderStefan : You could do like central bank interest rate contracts. And GDP/inflation contracts
[2015-08-15 23:26:43] TrevinHofmann : Oh, that medium article that was removed on /r/Bitcoin because muh altcoin? :D
[2015-08-15 23:27:26] Blargwaffle : Regex, huh...
[2015-08-15 23:27:54] Blargwaffle : http://to./
[2015-08-15 23:30:27] TrevinHofmann : Blargwaffle: what is this magic
[2015-08-15 23:36:58] Blargwaffle : Just a TLD that has a DNS entry.
[2015-08-15 23:37:24] Blargwaffle : https://www.bitmex.com./ The . is actually part of DNS.
[2015-08-15 23:57:57] chrisxbt : BitMEX_Sam: I'm interested in an actual market because there's the possibility of both chains existing
[2015-08-16 00:17:38] TrevinHofmann : Blargwaffle: I'm fairly familiar with DNS, but had no idea that there were any TLDs with DNS entries.
[2015-08-16 00:17:53] TrevinHofmann : Thanks for amazing me with that info.
[2015-08-16 00:18:00] Blargwaffle : Eheh.
[2015-08-16 00:18:05] Blargwaffle : Some are... odd
[2015-08-16 00:18:59] Blargwaffle : Iceland's is some guy's facebook.
[2015-08-16 00:19:11] BitMEX_Sam : hah
[2015-08-16 00:50:10] goat : BitMEX_Sam: how about this for an idea.. on recent trades maybe puta tab for "my recent trades"
[2015-08-16 00:50:31] goat : so you can switch between recent trades for that contract and your recent trades
[2015-08-16 01:36:26] BitMEX_Sam : goat: Yeah, that's an interesting idea. You can get a similar view by looking at "Fills"
[2015-08-16 01:37:44] BitMEX_Sam : FYI sorry this is short notice, but withdrawals tomorrow will be delayed by about 5 hours as all partners have conflicted travel schedules. We will be doing a round in the next few minutes if you want to get one in.
[2015-08-16 01:53:14] goat : thanks for the heads up, ill wait :) no worrie
[2015-08-16 02:03:21] goat : BitMEX_Sam: didnt notice that filled was just for the current contract
[2015-08-16 02:03:22] goat : perfect
[2015-08-16 02:03:26] goat : i know what we had talked about this earlier
[2015-08-16 02:03:55] BitMEX_Sam : Actually Fills is for all contracts
[2015-08-16 02:04:00] BitMEX_Sam : Maybe you've just been trading a lot on one
[2015-08-16 02:05:10] goat : so that would make perfect sen
[2015-08-16 02:18:13] gonfalons : How do I do 25x leverage short?
[2015-08-16 02:18:38] BitMEX_Sam : gonfalons: Just place a sell order. You don't have to "own" contracts to sell them
[2015-08-16 02:20:38] gonfalons : I don't see how that uses the leverage, but never used a system like this. Used to bitfinex. Place order, margin sell, bit it doesn't specify the leverage that I can see
[2015-08-16 02:20:55] j8 : click isolate margin
[2015-08-16 02:21:09] j8 : this defaults to 25x
[2015-08-16 02:21:25] j8 : otherwise it's based on whatever is in the account
[2015-08-16 02:21:26] BitMEX_Sam : Basically you're in 25x no matter what in terms of the margin that is locked away while your position is open.
[2015-08-16 02:21:44] BitMEX_Sam : But if you isolate margin, then you reduce your potential losses to 1/25th of the position's total value
[2015-08-16 02:26:11] gonfalons : I see isolate margin detail only in "closed orders". But if I just place a sell order it automatically goes 25x?
[2015-08-16 02:26:33] BitMEX_Sam : Yes
[2015-08-16 02:26:55] BitMEX_Sam : If you want to limit your losses, click "Isolate Margin" in "Open Positions" once you have placed the order
[2015-08-16 02:27:08] BitMEX_Sam : That moves you from cross margin (the default) to fixed margin
[2015-08-16 02:27:16] BitMEX_Sam : Much like on OKCoin and other margined futures exchanges
[2015-08-16 02:27:46] BitMEX_Sam : Note that your liquidation price changes when you do that. So it's a tradeoff - it limits your losses, but makes you more susceptible to total position loss if the market oscillates
[2015-08-16 02:27:47] gonfalons : Thank you
[2015-08-16 02:52:30] gonfalons : How to close an open order that is not bought?
[2015-08-16 02:55:42] j8 : click the x beside it in Open Orders
[2015-08-16 02:58:22] Mastablasta33 : look at the open orders module and you should see your order. Click cancel
[2015-08-16 03:05:58] chrisxbt : yeah I didn't see it also at first
[2015-08-16 03:06:03] chrisxbt : you need to scroll right
[2015-08-16 03:07:47] gonfalons : Ah yes scroll right was not easy to see thanks
[2015-08-16 07:41:33] chrisxbt : $10 spread on XBTU15
[2015-08-16 07:47:38] cengel : sticking to XBTQ15
[2015-08-16 07:51:19] j8 : yeah someone kept feedin me some cheap XBTU15 there
[2015-08-16 08:08:01] lolcookie : damn missed that sel off
[2015-08-16 08:20:12] j8 : wow my testnet bot is rich. made 200 testBTC today
[2015-08-16 08:24:56] lolcookie : what kind of stratergy?
[2015-08-16 08:25:58] j8 : buy a shitload of `BVOL24H`
[2015-08-16 08:27:05] j8 : actually it was just buying and selling at a small premium, someone else was selling at no premium and i accumulated a ton of contracts
[2015-08-16 08:28:21] cengel : its a nice gamble when theres a market lull and bvol is on sale
[2015-08-16 08:28:52] j8 : yeah was trading real low earlier today
[2015-08-16 08:29:11] j8 : in real life i mean.
[2015-08-16 08:29:23] j8 : the calm before the storm
[2015-08-16 08:30:09] cengel : yea but theres been plenty of times where i go long big in calm and it ends up being so calm i lose big too
[2015-08-16 08:30:45] j8 : yup, it's impossible to call the bottom of volatility
[2015-08-16 08:31:16] cengel : and its not liquid enough to fit it into a proper trading strategy for me, so just pure gamblin
[2015-08-16 08:31:31] j8 : although earlier today i said, hey i've never seen it this low. maybe thats a sign.
[2015-08-16 08:32:32] j8 : i mostly just buy if it's cheap and my alarms are going off
[2015-08-16 08:34:42] j8 : and sometimes get a decent hedge going with `BVOL7D` towards the end of the week
[2015-08-16 08:34:56] cengel : yea id love to buy more bvol7d but nobody sells for reasonal price
[2015-08-16 08:35:45] cengel : and yea you could sell bvol7d now and then just start buying bvol24h throughout the week
[2015-08-16 08:36:51] j8 : can get rekt if you do that early in the week and then have some big days
[2015-08-16 08:37:19] j8 : because after a day like today, you won't be able to buy so low tomorrow
[2015-08-16 08:38:54] j8 : on the last day of the week its an easy arb if you map it out
[2015-08-16 08:39:27] cengel : i know, we talked about this before i thi
[2015-08-16 08:40:41] j8 : ah right. but yeah it works in practice, i start put asks more aggressively on tuesday, wednesday
[2015-08-16 08:42:58] j8 : planning to automate the process.
[2015-08-16 08:43:35] j8 : i think people would trade those markets if they got started
[2015-08-16 08:49:02] lolcookie : yeah the liquidity sucks ATM so I'm not going near it
[2015-08-16 08:50:11] lolcookie : is the btc sell off related to the new block chain at all?
[2015-08-16 08:51:16] j8 : i think its a stretch to say that, but people will use that as an excuse
[2015-08-16 09:09:29] cengel : j8, im going to get active again on BVOL had a busy work summer
[2015-08-16 09:10:04] cengel : and not just a frontrunning bot, adding liquidity too
[2015-08-16 09:10:35] j8 : nice. yeah i plan to do the same
[2015-08-16 10:16:10] TraderStefan : Nearly 15000 ETH7D contracts traded in the last 1.5 hours
[2015-08-16 10:16:47] j8 : most of it into two big bids
[2015-08-16 10:17:13] TraderStefan : Yeah and at a terrible price
[2015-08-16 10:17:20] TraderStefan : for the buyer
[2015-08-16 10:18:26] j8 : big premium. i told myself i was gonna stop trading ETH for a little while but i couldn't help myself
[2015-08-16 11:29:27] null : was there a socialized clawback on ETH? I left for vacation with 0.3XBT profit on contract, now only 0.25 were released.
[2015-08-16 11:29:48] TraderStefan : yes there was
[2015-08-16 11:30:05] j8 : check the settlement history page
[2015-08-16 12:19:09] CrazyC : eth futures untradeable , this bot ruins the tading
[2015-08-16 12:33:08] splash : CrazyC: how do you mean?
[2015-08-16 12:35:11] splash : CrazyC: i've been making money shorting since 0.008 and think the technical patterns have been pretty much easy to spot. though a bit high spread, the volatile market have been offering liquidation opportunities at key levels too. (i only held like 100 contracts though)
[2015-08-16 12:35:27] splash : CrazyC: whats ur experience?
[2015-08-16 12:39:52] CrazyC : liquidity is horrid and the bot thats running will front 250 contracts in front of any offer. experience is stay away, no reason atempt here
[2015-08-16 12:41:01] cengel : then put your offer below his
[2015-08-16 12:48:18] Tulip-stefan : yeah. I don't get the rants about front running bots. If someone is willing to offer a better price than you, why is that a problem? It is usually easy to mislead those algorithms.
[2015-08-16 12:55:45] cengel : ive lured the bots into givin me great prices at times
[2015-08-16 19:05:34] gustavo7 : lol at the xbu ask side
[2015-08-16 20:11:34] gustavo7 : hello?
[2015-08-16 20:52:29] darkshinyshadow : ugh
[2015-08-16 20:52:40] darkshinyshadow : i've now missed the withdrawal window like 3 times
[2015-08-16 20:53:02] darkshinyshadow : because i keep thinking i hit verify in email but then the server rejects it because my bitmex acc times out
[2015-08-16 20:55:01] darkshinyshadow : Why does it log it out after you verify a withdrawl?
[2015-08-17 00:37:00] miratrader : no one except me want to short ETH? there is a nice bid @0.00609 and the index is 0.00566
[2015-08-17 00:44:56] TrevinHofmann : miratrader:
[2015-08-17 00:45:50] TrevinHofmann : Done
[2015-08-17 00:46:12] miratrader : @TrevinHofmann cool, thanks :-)
[2015-08-17 00:58:08] GAmma : I'm short ETH ... forever and a aday ...
[2015-08-17 05:12:36] slacknation : yah, agree
[2015-08-17 05:31:49] slacknation : eth!
[2015-08-17 06:30:49] slavo : well at least i tried that site but there just nobody in the book so i'll leave sorry ^^ cheers
[2015-08-17 10:36:03] cryptobull : Is there a max number for referrals? Mine seems to be stuck
[2015-08-17 12:43:26] BitMEX_Wally : cryptobull: No limit
[2015-08-17 13:00:07] uiop : NO LIMITS WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
[2015-08-17 13:00:33] uiop : :)
[2015-08-17 14:31:07] cengel : firefox pushed an update for win10 users maybe it will fix some of the problems
[2015-08-17 14:35:44] BitMEX_Sam : darkshinyshadow: You don't get logged out after verifying a withdrawal. You just need to be logged in to accept the request, like any other authed page on BitMEX
[2015-08-17 16:30:57] krtek.net : crazy :)
[2015-08-17 16:53:11] slacknation : eth action
[2015-08-17 17:09:11] ssa3512 : STRML, what happened to the webpage?
[2015-08-17 17:09:21] ssa3512 : login page looks awful in Chrome
[2015-08-17 17:12:39] ssa3512 : https://i.imgur.com/vLQaXPm.jpg
[2015-08-17 17:20:45] krtek.net : try control-clicking on reload button
[2015-08-17 17:21:02] krtek.net : @ssa3512 ^
[2015-08-17 17:21:43] ssa3512 : nope, looks the same
[2015-08-17 17:24:08] krtek.net : cleaning cache: ctrl+shift+del (or find it in the menu as Clear browsing data). Select cached images and files, from the begining of time.
[2015-08-17 17:28:51] ssa3512 : still nope. happening in incognito mode and IE 11 as well. I'll deal with it later, don't have time to mess around too much right now
[2015-08-17 17:29:30] krtek.net : in that case, be careful, somebody might be messing with your connection/machine.
[2015-08-17 17:31:35] krtek.net : BitMEX_Sam: any possibility of cloudfront refusing to serve the stylesheets?
[2015-08-17 17:34:56] ssa3512 : krtek.net, seems to have resolved itself now
[2015-08-17 18:46:33] d3l33t : i'm getting the same issue ssa3512 is mentioning on mobile- but not on my reg comp
[2015-08-17 19:05:08] krtek.net : cloudfront is sending jumboframes without probing :)
[2015-08-17 19:05:33] krtek.net : or maybe with probing, but without confirmation
[2015-08-17 19:08:04] krtek.net : hmm... on second thought, that might be my upc router refragmenting/reframing the stream for 802.11n
[2015-08-17 19:08:11] krtek.net : back to the drawing boards
[2015-08-17 19:25:52] slavo : i've got a position in the book (i assume it's mine) not showing in my open orders
[2015-08-17 19:26:02] slavo : 177 contracts 261.5 long
[2015-08-17 19:26:13] slavo : xbt7d
[2015-08-17 19:26:41] slavo : sorry that was updated just now
[2015-08-17 19:26:43] slavo : refresh bug
[2015-08-17 19:26:45] slavo : nvm
[2015-08-17 19:42:44] BlargWaffle : Site died?
[2015-08-17 20:08:35] j8 : was broken for me for a while, back in now
[2015-08-17 20:51:42] BlargWaffle : Site still dead?
[2015-08-17 21:10:04] Tulip-stefan : works for me.
[2015-08-17 21:11:24] BlargWaffle : Then, my account is special...
[2015-08-17 21:12:47] BitMEX_Arthur : BlargWaffle: what problems are you experiencing?
[2015-08-17 21:12:56] Tulip-stefan : i haven;t even created an account yet. Where are you located?
[2015-08-17 21:13:19] BlargWaffle : Firefox just shows the background, a Chromium build shows a bouncing logo and the background.
[2015-08-17 21:13:27] Tulip-stefan : perhaps it is a local problem with cloudflare or something.
[2015-08-17 21:14:55] BitMEX_Arthur : Tulip-stefan: We are incorporated in the Seychelles
[2015-08-17 21:17:31] BlargWaffle : New... York...
[2015-08-17 21:17:55] BlargWaffle : https://static.bitmex.com/ Thinks I'm in New York, ror.
[2015-08-17 21:18:33] BlargWaffle : Even my PRT says .ca :P
[2015-08-17 21:18:38] BlargWaffle : *PTR
[2015-08-17 21:19:29] BlargWaffle : But, yeah, get better GeoIP data.
[2015-08-17 21:20:57] BlargWaffle : In the mean time, unblock my IP. ;)
[2015-08-17 21:31:16] j8 : BitMEX_Arthur: earlier today i was getting the bouncing logo, console showed Access-Control-Origin related errors
[2015-08-17 21:31:34] BitMEX_Arthur : Has that been resolved?
[2015-08-17 21:32:03] BlargWaffle : https://static.bitmex.com/ What's that give ya?
[2015-08-17 21:32:07] j8 : works fine for me now
[2015-08-17 21:33:18] j8 : yeah that site tells me its not available in new york.
[2015-08-17 21:34:40] BlargWaffle : I get that and the site doesn't work.
[2015-08-17 21:35:35] j8 : new york, messing it up for the rest of us
[2015-08-17 21:38:17] BitMEX_Arthur : As we stated in our message to users, BitMEX is no longer available for NY residents
[2015-08-17 21:38:34] BlargWaffle : Uhuh, but I'm not in NY.
[2015-08-17 21:38:56] BitMEX_Arthur : Please send us a mail to support@bitmex.com and we can help deal with this
[2015-08-17 21:39:02] BlargWaffle : Gotcha.
[2015-08-17 22:14:39] BlargWaffle : Oi, screwed by bitlicense even when I'm in another country, hah.
[2015-08-17 22:30:48] ssa3512 : I'm just getting a bouncing bitfinex logo after I log in
[2015-08-17 22:31:10] ssa3512 : jesus bitmex not bitfinex
[2015-08-17 22:31:56] GAmma : been offline today, orderbook for ETH7D has thinned out A LOT
[2015-08-17 22:32:01] GAmma : what did I miss?
[2015-08-17 22:32:26] ssa3512 : GAmma: everyone that went long on ETH got pwned
[2015-08-17 22:32:39] GAmma : lol
[2015-08-17 22:32:47] ssa3512 : myself included :(
[2015-08-17 22:32:47] GAmma : well, I know that part ...
[2015-08-17 22:32:56] ssa3512 : made a ton the first week
[2015-08-17 22:33:08] ssa3512 : then promptly lost it all Friday
[2015-08-17 22:34:15] GAmma : I'm covering my modest posn at .0047, I hope
[2015-08-17 22:35:34] GAmma : I've been shorting this whole time, only very modest size
[2015-08-17 22:35:59] GAmma : sold my first at around .0037
[2015-08-17 22:36:11] GAmma : kept selling all the way to .0088
[2015-08-17 22:37:05] GAmma : but too cautious to put on real size ...
[2015-08-17 22:38:16] GAmma : are u just trading, or are you a 'believer' in 'ether' .... lol
[2015-08-17 22:38:44] krtek.net : ethereum is broken by design :)
[2015-08-17 22:38:56] GAmma : try telling someone this with a straight face: 'You shud invest in Ether'
[2015-08-17 22:39:04] GAmma : lol
[2015-08-17 22:39:52] GAmma : I still get funny looks if I mention Bitcoin ...
[2015-08-17 22:40:00] GAmma : Ether, fogetaboutit ...
[2015-08-17 22:40:38] GAmma : how is it broken krtek?
[2015-08-17 22:41:31] BlargWaffle : ssa3512: that means the site thinks you're in NY and you have to provide gov't ID/address.
[2015-08-17 22:41:39] ssa3512 : erm
[2015-08-17 22:41:53] ssa3512 : how about they look at the IP I am coming from
[2015-08-17 22:42:08] BlargWaffle : I asked them to, no go, PTR wasn't enough.
[2015-08-17 22:42:10] krtek.net : well... to be part of the network... that means, to be a full node, you need to run all the scripts in the block. every full node needs to do this.
[2015-08-17 22:42:21] ssa3512 : like that it resolves to .washdc.fios.verizon.net
[2015-08-17 22:42:26] krtek.net : but only the winner of the block gets awarded.
[2015-08-17 22:42:30] ssa3512 : washdc != NY
[2015-08-17 22:42:41] BlargWaffle : Yeah, mine is in my whois, .ca at the end.
[2015-08-17 22:42:47] ssa3512 : like canada?
[2015-08-17 22:42:51] BlargWaffle : Yeah.
[2015-08-17 22:42:53] ssa3512 : lol
[2015-08-17 22:42:57] ssa3512 : fail
[2015-08-17 22:43:11] ssa3512 : well, upstate NY is basically canada
[2015-08-17 22:43:15] BlargWaffle : >.>.>
[2015-08-17 22:43:15] ssa3512 : so maybe the reverse is true
[2015-08-17 22:43:26] krtek.net : lel
[2015-08-17 22:43:28] GAmma : krtec so u are saying miners are not incentivized, so the network will be inadequately mined or serviced ...
[2015-08-17 22:43:44] GAmma : (I'm a novice ... I need simple terms)
[2015-08-17 22:44:13] BitMEX_Arthur : Get excited we will be releasing a prediction market on whether BitcoinXT reaches consensus
[2015-08-17 22:44:16] BitMEX_Arthur : watch this space
[2015-08-17 22:44:19] krtek.net : well... I'm saying the the popularity (more nodes) will make the transaction fees to high to afford.
[2015-08-17 22:44:38] ssa3512 : BitMEX_Arthur help!
[2015-08-17 22:44:42] ssa3512 : I am getting bouncing logo
[2015-08-17 22:44:50] BlargWaffle : Email support, what they told me.
[2015-08-17 22:44:54] ssa3512 : BlargWaffle: what do you get when you put in your IP here: https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip-demo
[2015-08-17 22:45:09] GAmma : so as it gets more popular, fees will rise disproportionately, and grind system to a halt
[2015-08-17 22:45:35] BlargWaffle : It's very much Canada.
[2015-08-17 22:45:47] BlargWaffle : You can get my IP from /whois, I think.
[2015-08-17 22:45:57] GAmma : We know who is selling Ether, who would be buying right now?
[2015-08-17 22:46:09] GAmma : I'm surprised we are not lower yet ...
[2015-08-17 22:46:15] ssa3512 : BitMEX_Arthur XT will never reach consensus. All the large pools have stated that while they support 8MB blocks, they will not do so via XT
[2015-08-17 22:48:17] krtek.net : it will push the price higher and higher, but the fees amount won't go down. Full nodes will try to escape this with pooling (only the pool will make the script execution, miners will be doing at most partial verification as proposed in the light nodes protocol). This will push the number of pools down.
[2015-08-17 22:48:29] krtek.net : when finally two of them will fight...
[2015-08-17 22:48:30] TraderStefan : BitMEX_Arthur: Sweeeeet
[2015-08-17 22:51:29] cengel : i'll sell the shit out of those
[2015-08-17 22:53:06] cowtung : (BitMEX_Arthur): Get excited we will be releasing a prediction market on whether BitcoinXT reaches consensus
[2015-08-17 22:53:12] cowtung : This is not parody?
[2015-08-17 22:53:15] cowtung : or sarcasm?
[2015-08-17 22:53:24] TheRealJohnGalt : ^^^^Can anyone confirm?
[2015-08-17 22:53:35] TheRealJohnGalt : Will there be a blog post detailing it?
[2015-08-17 22:53:45] GAmma : Ether - its a parody ... lol
[2015-08-17 22:53:50] GAmma : of what I'm not sure ...
[2015-08-17 22:53:56] ssa3512 : cowtung arthur is bitmex staff
[2015-08-17 22:54:01] ssa3512 : so probably not parody
[2015-08-17 22:54:28] krtek.net : well... if you can index it, you can trade it.
[2015-08-17 22:55:09] krtek.net : browsershots of the platform for anyone interested... http://browsershots.org/https://www.bitmex.com/
[2015-08-17 22:56:28] BitMEX_Arthur : I am not joking, we are trying to get this to market ASAP
[2015-08-17 22:58:23] krtek.net : hmm... not sure 100% about this, but you should update your matcher for urls in webchat:)
[2015-08-17 22:58:48] krtek.net : well... I'm sure you should update it, not sure, if a colon is required to be urlencoded.
[2015-08-17 23:05:27] ssa3512 : hrm. tried logging in again and it worked this time
[2015-08-17 23:08:17] GAmma : BitcoinXT concensus ... very prone to insider trading? How many eligible voters are in this process?
[2015-08-17 23:10:17] ssa3512 : GAmma presumably it would be based on the blockchain, so the miners
[2015-08-17 23:11:17] GAmma : 100 votes? 1,000 votes?
[2015-08-17 23:11:54] GAmma : hmm, I don't have an edge, so I won't be trading it ...
[2015-08-17 23:15:25] krtek.net : what should this consensus be? BIP 101 PR is not merged (one closed and one was opened yesterday, will probably head to the same fate)
[2015-08-17 23:17:43] cowtung : probably pick 5 top exchanges and if 3 of them go XT, it's win for XT
[2015-08-17 23:18:46] cowtung : you could peg it to whether /r/bitcoin stops banning all talk of XT
[2015-08-17 23:19:54] krtek.net : https://github.com/bitcoinxt/bitcoinxt/commit/eaa1d911815a9cc20264f01b4bd0b874735ada2c this one?
[2015-08-17 23:27:52] BitMEX_Arthur : On Jan 11th at 00:00 UTC we will look at the preceding 1000 blocks, if over 750 have been mined using the XT patch, then the contract will pay out.
[2015-08-17 23:28:02] BitMEX_Arthur : Jan 11 2016
[2015-08-17 23:30:30] Blargwaffle : Now it works... guess I won't ask for my account to be liquidated/closed, hah.
[2015-08-17 23:31:58] ssa3512 : Blargwaffle: I got in too after a while
[2015-08-17 23:31:59] ssa3512 : shrug
[2015-08-17 23:38:05] krtek.net : question: how can you know the block was mined using XT client?
[2015-08-17 23:43:18] krtek.net : afaik there is no "version of the client" stored in the block, the only place to put your own "signature" is a coinbase scriptsig, or is bitcoin tx doing something else with the blocks like adding extra transaction? anyway there is probably nothing that cannot be faked by regular bitcoin nodes.
[2015-08-17 23:44:21] Blargwaffle : So, it's a BIP101 prediction market?
[2015-08-17 23:44:22] cowtung : nodes != miners
[2015-08-17 23:44:34] ssa3512 : I believe the XT client is going to put a different block version number or something
[2015-08-17 23:45:04] krtek.net : not possible without a hardfork and reaching the consensus first :)
[2015-08-17 23:51:07] ssa3512 : found it
[2015-08-17 23:51:09] ssa3512 : +/** Blocks with version fields that have these bits set activate the bigger-block fork */
[2015-08-17 23:51:09] ssa3512 : +const unsigned int SIZE_FORK_VERSION = 0x20000007;
[2015-08-17 23:52:23] ssa3512 : src/primitives/block.h
[2015-08-17 23:52:25] ssa3512 : lines 13-15
[2015-08-17 23:54:46] ssa3512 : afaik no blocks have been mined using XT as of right now
[2015-08-17 23:57:09] krtek.net : the block version will stay =3, but the transaction version can vary to hint for softforks
[2015-08-17 23:58:36] krtek.net : ok, it is somewhat meassurable
[2015-08-18 00:00:43] ssa3512 : interestingly enough, most of the pools are signaling 8M support
[2015-08-18 00:00:54] ssa3512 : for example BWPool in the coinbase tx: BW Support 8M fisher jinxin /BW Pool/
[2015-08-18 00:11:05] krtek.net : signaling with what? to rpcminers or are they pushing out the bumped block versions? do the accept bitcointx generated transaction to its mempool?
[2015-08-18 00:11:40] ssa3512 : no just as text in the coinbase TX
[2015-08-18 00:12:22] krtek.net : :))
[2015-08-18 00:12:47] ssa3512 : for example: https://blockchain.info/tx/65aa494a2556f4f922863087cdc48f9d52fa343edad8d0ee95256038840214b1
[2015-08-18 00:13:09] ssa3512 : if you look at the scripts & coinbaes
[2015-08-18 00:13:20] ssa3512 : ��/AntPool/sc2/8M/3y] U�oZ�3�:
[2015-08-18 00:13:36] ssa3512 : antpool isn't even doing it consistently
[2015-08-18 01:28:05] miratrader : BitMEX_Arthur: XT fork prediction market is a neat idea but I wouldn't do it. Having prediction markets here will just confuse new users. If you want to add new markets plz add something useful to the general public like monthly/quarterly litecoin futures or XBT24H.
[2015-08-18 01:34:08] miratrader : BitMEX_Arthur, I would just focus on doing one thing really well and becoming the best place to trade cryptocurrency futures. You still have a long way to go. Even stop limit orders are not implemented in the UI, not talking about advanced order types available on OKCoin. (no offence, just my opinion)
[2015-08-18 01:37:58] krtek.net : Well iceberg on OKCoin is there just to make it less obvious how many coins they are actually missing. And I'm not always saying that their public order book is just too narrow, but it is way too narrow. :)
[2015-08-18 01:40:38] krtek.net : they made some progress with the order pairing manipulation since mtgox, but they are still pairing you as they like :)
[2015-08-18 01:42:20] BitMEX_Sam : Hey guys, want to give you all a quick update, sorry I've been absent today
[2015-08-18 01:42:41] krtek.net : hit me :)
[2015-08-18 01:42:47] krtek.net : and hi :)
[2015-08-18 01:42:52] BitMEX_Sam : There is a bug where users outside NY are being misidentified by the CDN, this is unintentional and I am rolling out a fix that will hit in the next 10min
[2015-08-18 01:43:01] BitMEX_Sam : I apologize for the confusion around that.
[2015-08-18 01:43:06] Blargwaffle : Yeah, that got me going...
[2015-08-18 01:43:19] BitMEX_Sam : As for stop limit orders, we have been testing them in Testnet for the last two days and I believe they're ready to roll over
[2015-08-18 01:44:28] krtek.net : /me gusta
[2015-08-18 02:34:42] krtek.net : neat
[2015-08-18 02:35:36] krtek.net : my own messages are causing chat window wiggling too?
[2015-08-18 02:37:21] krtek.net : fix it, fix it, fix it :) (search for highligh online in the message)
[2015-08-18 02:39:05] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah, there's a bug there, you can stop the wiggling by minimizing/maximizing the chat
[2015-08-18 02:39:07] BitMEX_Sam : Stops are in.
[2015-08-18 02:40:34] BitMEX_Arthur : https://blog.bitmex.com/stop-limit-orders-now-supported/
[2015-08-18 02:44:29] miratrader : BitMEX_Sam: thanks for the stop limit orders, great job!
[2015-08-18 02:45:05] BitMEX_Sam : Thanks @miratrader. Making a small adjustment to it now and fixing your wiggling but @krtek.net
[2015-08-18 02:45:08] BitMEX_Sam : bug*
[2015-08-18 02:45:44] BitMEX_Sam : We're going to disable the stop submission button if it would trigger immediately. We wouldn't want users to set a stop that would trigger instantaneously, that's almost certainly not intended
[2015-08-18 02:45:54] BitMEX_Sam : You of course would just want to use a limit order instead.
[2015-08-18 02:49:49] miratrader : BitMEX_Sam: one suggestion if I may: close button for the Announcements panel for the Advanced view. I have to scroll all the time to see my open positions.
[2015-08-18 02:51:42] BitMEX_Sam : miratrader: Yeah, it shouldn't be above your positions, it should be at the bottom of the list in smaller screen sizes IMO.
[2015-08-18 02:51:48] BitMEX_Sam : Thanks for the suggestion. I'll add that.
[2015-08-18 02:52:12] miratrader : BitMEX_Sam: thanks!
[2015-08-18 03:05:20] krtek.net : I can sell into my own bid, interesting.
[2015-08-18 03:07:16] BitMEX_Sam : krtek.net: Yeah, you've been able to do that since the very beginning. We thought about refusing to execute it and canceling the order, but we think it just doesn't matter enough to address it. There's no incentive to wash trade and if you really wanted to, you could create multiple accounts.
[2015-08-18 03:07:35] BitMEX_Sam : Since we don't mark to last price, wash trading has no benefit aside from costing you commissions.
[2015-08-18 03:08:09] BitMEX_Sam : @miratrader: Announcements are moved
[2015-08-18 03:08:11] lnovy`` : and can be detected via open interest
[2015-08-18 03:08:19] BitMEX_Sam : Inovy: Yes, definitely
[2015-08-18 03:08:32] BitMEX_Sam : lnovy``, sorry :)
[2015-08-18 03:08:47] STRML : That I looks the same as an l in our font
[2015-08-18 03:09:20] lnovy`` : my irssi highlights most of the permutations :) and I'm used to :)
[2015-08-18 03:09:45] miratrader : BitMEX_Sam: thank you for moving the Announcements panel!
[2015-08-18 03:10:31] lnovy`` : You can google Lukas Novy, if you are to never make that mistake again :)
[2015-08-18 03:10:52] BitMEX_Sam : The pastafarian?
[2015-08-18 03:11:10] krtek.net : yep, that is me :)
[2015-08-18 03:15:31] miratrader : I can go to sleep, thanks to stop limit orders :-)
[2015-08-18 03:15:39] BitMEX_Sam : krtek.net: That's awesome, you just made all of us laugh quite a bit
[2015-08-18 03:15:58] BitMEX_Sam : We all remember the article
[2015-08-18 03:17:00] krtek.net : well... smile is ok, but if you are laughting, you had probably never got it. It is a serious matter.
[2015-08-18 03:18:12] krtek.net : Quick explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I71aDgV75oc
[2015-08-18 03:18:57] krtek.net : And the proper one directly from Niko: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjQ3ufqnf-M
[2015-08-18 04:25:20] lolcookie : yay stop limit
[2015-08-18 05:21:15] miratrader : BitMEX_Sam: Recent Trades list doesn't show the date, only time. For rarely traded instruments like XBU24H we need the date as well, there is enough space to put the date there.
[2015-08-18 06:19:21] GAmma : hmm..
[2015-08-18 06:19:52] GAmma : I've submitted an order on XBTU15 but not reflected in the ordebook
[2015-08-18 06:20:16] GAmma : I"m the best bid but I don't see it posted
[2015-08-18 06:20:30] GAmma : someone from Bitmex can take a look?
[2015-08-18 06:20:55] GAmma : XBTU15 I just bid at 271.25
[2015-08-18 06:21:02] TrevinHofmann : 250?
[2015-08-18 06:21:04] TrevinHofmann : I see it.
[2015-08-18 06:21:29] GAmma : ok ... not sure why I don't ...
[2015-08-18 06:21:52] GAmma : I got weak wireless connection, maybe that is why
[2015-08-18 06:22:57] GAmma : I see it now, thks. Issue is on my end.
[2015-08-18 06:23:47] gustavo7 : 95% margin used, should i do something?
[2015-08-18 06:23:59] TrevinHofmann : You should probably try to lower that.
[2015-08-18 06:24:27] TrevinHofmann : Sell (or buy back) some contracts if you want to avoid a margin call.
[2015-08-18 06:24:49] krtek.net : try to provide liqudity, or you will get ruined
[2015-08-18 06:25:48] TrevinHofmann : Well, that's a strange bug.
[2015-08-18 06:26:05] gustavo7 : ye i'm still confused how i can put up orders across the book but them are actually in danger of getting canceled
[2015-08-18 06:26:47] TrevinHofmann : gustavo, do you have a position that puts you at 95% margin use? Or do you just have a lot of open offers
[2015-08-18 06:26:51] gustavo7 : on 796 i know exactly when i can put orders because it takes a bit of balance and thats it
