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.

Sorry I only made the orders 10 mins ago... not seen this 24h close your orders thing happen before? [2016-06-30 12:20:03] BitMEX_Wally : Looking at the Recent Trades (XBJ24H) there were no trades between 11:48:49 and 12:00:00 [2016-06-30 12:20:07] Mr Blue : Closing [2016-06-30 12:20:21] BitMEX_Wally : You get a popup when orders are canceled [2016-06-30 12:20:47] hey : is there some popup history / notification history available?

[2016-06-30 12:24:28] BitMEX_Wally : hey: There is not a history of notifications but there is a full history of all trades, orders, executions, etc available [2016-06-30 12:24:39] hey : k thx [2016-06-30 12:24:55] BitMEX_Wally : NukeLaloosh: Correct [2016-06-30 12:25:31] Mr Blue : hey: it could of been, yet at the same time 50 I was short disappeared, so clearly some of the three orders I placed low got sold to, I thought all but never got the contacts lol [2016-06-30 12:26:31] hey : sounds to me like to short pos going away while the orders get cancelled at the same time, all due to expiry but i haven't experienced one myself so cannot say for sure. [2016-06-30 12:26:59] rullwull : BitMEX_Wally: would be good to have notifications history as well [2016-06-30 12:27:06] hey : +1 [2016-06-30 12:27:27] Mr Blue : hey: I wasn't thinking about any 24h thing, I'll keep a close eye on that in the future lol [2016-06-30 12:27:47] hey : we're all learning [2016-06-30 12:28:17] Mr Blue : BitMEX_Wally: okay thanks for the support [2016-06-30 12:28:41] Mr Blue : Sorry guys.... my bad lol [2016-06-30 12:49:27] rapidtrades : dam bitcoin [2016-06-30 12:49:51] rapidtrades : who knew it had it in him [2016-06-30 12:57:34] ayy_lmao : rip this dude walling [2016-06-30 12:57:36] ayy_lmao : get rekt [2016-06-30 13:02:06] ayy_lmao : this dude walling so ahrd [2016-06-30 13:02:35] macios15 : who?

[2016-06-30 13:13:44] RSFinance : It let me put in the order and then when it was triggered it was rejected. [2016-06-30 13:17:26] RSFinance : "Rejected: Order had execInst of Close and side of Sell but current position is -xxx" [2016-06-30 13:17:54] cekseh : Did you have the box ticked that says "close on trigger" [2016-06-30 13:17:58] cekseh : That would do it [2016-06-30 13:18:15] kogroken : It's one devious box that [2016-06-30 13:18:20] RSFinance : oh I do see that box [2016-06-30 13:18:36] cekseh : Read the balloon tip on that one [2016-06-30 13:18:40] cekseh : Kinda important [2016-06-30 13:19:09] kogroken : The balloon should spell out more clearly that it actually causes all other orders to be canceled. [2016-06-30 13:19:32] kogroken : It's certainly nothing one would expect to be on by default, yet it is ticked by default I believe. [2016-06-30 13:19:48] kogroken : At least it was when they added it [2016-06-30 13:20:22] cekseh : It does fairly plainly say that it cancels your other xbt orders [2016-06-30 13:21:20] cekseh : uhhg I need caffeine [2016-06-30 13:21:31] cekseh : zombie mode [2016-06-30 13:22:43] kogroken : It does. It's just counter intuitive, who uses a single stop loss order? [2016-06-30 13:22:59] kogroken : It will close your other stop loss orders as well, it seems. [2016-06-30 13:24:42] RSFinance : yeah it shouldn't be on by default [2016-06-30 13:32:12] kasman5 : i think more upside incoming [2016-06-30 13:37:37] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: Buy 5 @ 670.05 [2016-06-30 13:40:06] justinlooking : first rekt for 4 hours and it's a 5 lot [2016-06-30 13:42:26] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: Buy 400 @ 671.60 [2016-06-30 13:45:32] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: Buy 7 @ 673.23 [2016-06-30 13:45:59] macios15 : china gov to buy bitcoin!

[2016-06-30 14:13:32] d_ : Could be lag. Polo's site is lagging like crazy [2016-06-30 14:15:21] BitMEX_Wally : subjective: the mark price includes the funding rate which is currently negative for ETHXBT [2016-06-30 14:15:24] d_ : Actually, I take that back. On the ticker bar up top, it seems accurate. But mark price is much lower [2016-06-30 14:16:12] subjective : Well, this is 0.00008 power than spot price.. going to have a lot of unhappy souls tonight [2016-06-30 14:17:22] subjective : It means u get marked 5% lower than current spot.. [2016-06-30 14:17:47] BitMEX_Wally : 0.01849/ 0.01841 (Spot vs mark) [2016-06-30 14:18:15] BitMEX_Wally : less than 0.5% lower [2016-06-30 14:18:34] subjective : you are right, i missed a digit [2016-06-30 14:20:01] BitMEX_Wally : the mark price decays towards the spot price, so in 3 hours it will be 0.25% below, and in 6 hours 0% below [2016-06-30 14:20:56] d_ : BitMEX_Wally: Thanks for that clarification. Makes much more sense now than from when I read it in the docs.

[2016-06-30 14:53:39] mbaril : what do you mean [2016-06-30 14:53:55] mbaril : the problem is the speed of propagation of the block around the world [2016-06-30 14:54:19] mbaril : I was at scaling bitcoin and blue matt explained very well the problem of propagation [2016-06-30 14:55:01] d_ : also this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Internet_connection_speeds [2016-06-30 14:55:22] d_ : check out china at a whopping avg. 3.7 Mb/s [2016-06-30 14:57:56] RoftheN : Top 5, not bad [2016-06-30 14:58:06] mbaril : the problem is not internet speed guys [2016-06-30 14:58:15] mbaril : you need to understand how blockchain work [2016-06-30 14:58:43] mbaril : the propagation is important to eliminate orphan block. and to make sure we do not create bad branch [2016-06-30 14:59:59] mbaril : anyway 1mb or 2mb we need to get higher fee. because if not miners will stop secure the chain [2016-06-30 15:00:19] Rune : with 2mb we will have more transactions [2016-06-30 15:00:19] mbaril : fees is suppoce to replace block rewards [2016-06-30 15:00:23] d_ : But doesn't internet bandwidth play a role in block propagation?

[2016-06-30 23:44:27] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: last funding rate was -0.24xxx or something. I was charged I think. [2016-06-30 23:46:10] BitMEX_Arthur : dharmabum: Which product are you referring to? [2016-06-30 23:46:34] dharmabum : XBTUSD [2016-06-30 23:46:39] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: XBTUSD [2016-06-30 23:56:46] BitMEX_Arthur : https://www.bitmex.com/app/fundingHistory [2016-06-30 23:57:09] BitMEX_Arthur : The last funding rate was +0.1988% at 04:00 UTC July 1 [2016-06-30 23:57:17] BitMEX_Arthur : meaning that longs paid shorts [2016-06-30 23:57:33] BitMEX_Sam : You received funding, you were not charged it [2016-06-30 23:57:46] BitMEX_Sam : A negative fee is a credit. [2016-06-30 23:58:24] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: Thanks both of you for checking. [2016-06-30 23:59:02] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: I'm looking at my transaction history. Is the funding the "Fee" or "Amount" column? [2016-06-30 23:59:43] d_ : BitMEX_Sam: Negative funding rate is shorts paying longs, right? Referring to ETHXBT, in particular. [2016-07-01 00:00:06] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: Are the last 3 CashRebalances correct? They all cover the current short position. [2016-07-01 00:00:37] BitMEX_Sam : dharmabum: It's the fee column on the trade history. [2016-07-01 00:01:12] BitMEX_Sam : d_: Yes, negative funding means shorts pay longs [2016-07-01 00:01:22] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: Hmm. My Fee column shows zeros all the way fown forever.

[2016-07-01 00:03:06] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: So "Fee Paid" is positive for me if the figure is negative :-) ? [2016-07-01 00:04:30] BitMEX_Sam : It's the amount paid [2016-07-01 00:04:34] BitMEX_Sam : If you paid a negative amount, you received money [2016-07-01 00:04:54] subjective : When I hold XBTUSD and eTHXBT [2016-07-01 00:05:02] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: I must be conflating things. In the wallet Transaction History I'm getting nailed on CashRebalance. Could you be so kind as to summarise why I'm confused about this? Thank you! [2016-07-01 00:05:29] BitMEX_Sam : If you're seeing debits that means that your trades during that period lost money [2016-07-01 00:06:05] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: For a single open position? I have a current hedge in place that is bleeding currency, correct? [2016-07-01 00:06:15] subjective : if I have two position XBT and ETH with same value of contract, do they cancel each others funding because one is positive and other negative.? [2016-07-01 00:06:41] BitMEX_Arthur : dharmabum: Give me a minute I'm looking at your account [2016-07-01 00:07:08] BitMEX_Greg : subjective: It depends on the funding amount on each product. Normally XBTUSD funding will not be the same as the ETHXBT funding [2016-07-01 00:07:59] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: Thanks Arthur. Basically I have a BTC hedge in place. My current understanding is that the CashRebalances are realised profit/loss on current position. [2016-07-01 00:08:44] subjective : BitMEX_Greg: let's say 1btc with at 5x for each position. BTC funding at 0.025% ETH at -0.49% [2016-07-01 00:10:22] BitMEX_Arthur : dharmabum: You are short XBTUSD, you have a negative cash rebalance because the market is rising so you are losing money on that position [2016-07-01 00:10:51] subjective : BitMEX_Greg: looks like it cancel each other out [2016-07-01 00:12:07] subjective : BitMEX_Greg: actually receive some funding on the ETH position, if funding rate is mostly negative correlate with 2 coins. Then holding both reduce funding fees [2016-07-01 00:12:11] BitMEX_Arthur : However, because you are short you are receiving funding because at the last funding time the rate was +0.1988% meaning as a short holder you received a funding payment [2016-07-01 00:12:25] BitMEX_Arthur : dharmabum: does that make sense? [2016-07-01 00:12:41] Zen Trader : rektt [2016-07-01 00:13:29] BitMEX_Greg : subjective: We don't net the funding, we reserve the position level at the current moment [2016-07-01 00:14:29] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: I think so. I just need to work out if I'm correctly hedged. If I am, the hedge losses should be perfectly balanced against the appreciation of the equivalent amount of XBTUSD (when the hedge was entered). Is my understanding right? [2016-07-01 00:15:06] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: Actually, given the hedge is short XBTUSD, it should actually make a very small amount as long as funding is negative.
