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.

[2016-06-30 19:40:28] fineregex : why?
[2016-06-30 19:40:44] fineregex : you guys dont use cross leverage?
[2016-06-30 19:42:08] Mr Blue : fineregex: because on x50 you only get like $10 before liquidation, it dropped buy than that and they didn't buy more to lower entry so must of got liquidated
[2016-06-30 19:42:13] ayy_lmao : some people just like getting rekt
[2016-06-30 19:42:39] Mr Blue : fineregex: some people use cross, I personally like x10

[2016-06-30 19:53:12] fineregex : because sale price at poloniex was 0.0196 or so
[2016-06-30 19:53:37] Mr Blue : It's lower than that, so you sold at a loss? Or when it peaked at 0.02 this morning
[2016-06-30 19:55:37] fineregex : i sold and bought at once
[2016-06-30 19:55:45] fineregex : mainly
[2016-06-30 19:55:48] fineregex : just for the interest rate
[2016-06-30 19:57:31] fineregex : yet such should be done & undone automatically since interest rate can change soon :D
[2016-06-30 19:58:08] Mr Blue : fineregex: erm okay buddy, as long as your having fun that's the main thing, but I wouldn't go past x2 if I was trying a trade with Eth, been spanked before with that one
[2016-06-30 19:59:14] Mr Blue : fineregex: you long or short Bitcoin?
[2016-06-30 20:00:52] ayy_lmao : 0.3 btc in funding lol
[2016-06-30 20:01:47] Mr Blue : ayy_lmao: harsh what you got like a million contacts?
[2016-06-30 20:03:54] fineregex : the rate is 0.3% :(
[2016-06-30 20:05:26] ayy_lmao : prob gonna switch to okc soon, hard to do large size here without getting chipped by funding
[2016-06-30 20:06:38] RoftheN : Why is the funding so high today
[2016-06-30 20:06:53] ayy_lmao : demand for longs is high
[2016-06-30 20:06:58] d_ : It's ridiculously high -_-
[2016-06-30 20:07:34] ayy_lmao : one time is was 1% lol
[2016-06-30 20:07:38] ayy_lmao : it*
[2016-06-30 20:09:08] ayy_lmao : i wouldn't mind paying 0.3 btc every 24 hours, but 0.9 btc per day + fees is harsh
[2016-06-30 20:09:50] d_ : OKC has better rates?
[2016-06-30 20:10:02] ayy_lmao : there is no funding there
[2016-06-30 20:10:13] d_ : Oh.
[2016-06-30 20:10:17] ayy_lmao : you just have to deal with settlements every week or 3 months
[2016-06-30 20:13:43] d_ : Hmm. I really like this exchange. But there are def. a couple of things I could do without. The 8 hr interest is one, and it is brutal. I'll likely start researching other exchanges soon, but I have a feeling there will be other aspects that suck. Aside from the 8 hr interest charges, 1/day withdrawals, and daily rebalancing, I'm pretty happy with this exchange. And the mods that frequent this chat are pretty responsive and helpful.
[2016-06-30 20:14:31] ayy_lmao : DPE + funding + fees = rekt
[2016-06-30 20:15:02] d_ : lol. One feature I like about this place is the rekt bot
[2016-06-30 20:15:30] jung1 : yeah its cool
[2016-06-30 20:15:37] ayy_lmao : x50 is the only draw here, but i rarely go over 20x
[2016-06-30 20:15:42] jung1 : always good to watch how people loose nomey
[2016-06-30 20:16:53] Mr Blue : ayy_lmao: yen market has been good to me, and has x100 who wouldn't think yen is going down against btc lol
[2016-06-30 20:18:27] Mr Blue : Only problem is first time I shorted thinking I was shorting yen lol but turns out you must buy in order to short Yen
[2016-06-30 20:19:41] jung1 : Mr Blue: you still shorting yen?
[2016-06-30 20:20:31] Mr Blue : jung1: ye I'm +400 contacts at 68977.1
[2016-06-30 20:22:23] Mr Blue : Also got out of my btc short then profited with a quick long, now just waiting to buy in again
[2016-06-30 20:22:58] sq : Mr Blue: stay long man
[2016-06-30 20:23:33] Mr Blue : sq: will do mate block reward halving month tomorrow
[2016-06-30 20:23:41] sq : yeh
[2016-06-30 20:25:08] jung1 : imo real pump will be after haling
[2016-06-30 20:25:53] Mr Blue : jung1: ye but we might see 850 before the halving ?
[2016-06-30 20:26:08] jung1 : or 550 again
[2016-06-30 20:27:30] Mr Blue : jung1: possibly but I think big fish can wait for $1000 after all the buying they've done in my imagination lol
[2016-06-30 20:27:45] jung1 : http://imgur.com/BLbBZlZ
[2016-06-30 20:27:48] jung1 : thats my bet
[2016-06-30 20:28:41] Mr Blue : jung1: 760 would be fine by me now I'm long lol
[2016-06-30 20:30:02] Mr Blue : Would be good for the Chinese to get out of 4000 Yuan they don't like the number 4 I believe
[2016-06-30 20:30:36] Mr Blue : So ye 5000+ would be nice lol
[2016-06-30 20:36:46] jung1 : or 3000
[2016-06-30 20:37:26] Mr Blue : jung1: that wouldn't be nice for me lol
[2016-06-30 20:57:36] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBJ24H`: Sell 41 @ 68590.0
[2016-06-30 20:57:53] jung1 : Mr Blue: cny here seems corelated with bitcoin price
[2016-06-30 20:57:56] jung1 : as I can see
[2016-06-30 20:58:28] Tetsuo : BTC lower and lower - into the deep tracts of hell! No support only a massive 45 million big margin long credit bubble going on@finex. This will end bad. Even the halving hype and brexit can´t save BTC from the inevitable crash
[2016-06-30 20:59:34] jung1 : Tetsuo: cant complain
[2016-06-30 20:59:38] jung1 : until I can short here
[2016-06-30 20:59:47] justinlooking : that's the last time i'm buying multi-corners, long at 25, settled at 122. fukin ouch
[2016-06-30 20:59:47] Tetsuo : :-)
[2016-06-30 20:59:49] Tetsuo : :-D
[2016-06-30 20:59:54] justinlooking : *12
[2016-06-30 21:00:52] jung1 : this year should be ready also dnbcoin

[2016-06-30 21:01:23] jung1 : http://www.coindesk.com/dutch-central-bank-to-create-dnbcoin-prototype/
[2016-06-30 21:01:32] jung1 : this will kill bitcoin
[2016-06-30 21:01:56] jung1 : or at least make gobitcoin to mainstream impossible
[2016-06-30 21:03:30] nip : my factums just keep going up ** :) **
[2016-06-30 21:03:50] nip : wish i could say the same for eth
[2016-06-30 21:04:48] jung1 : eth is still overpump by dao
[2016-06-30 21:08:10] jung1 : how cool it would be if after another financial crisis DOGE would be world currency
[2016-06-30 21:10:34] justinlooking : such wow
[2016-06-30 21:21:12] sq : where is a gd place to keep track of bitcoin news? coindesk?
[2016-06-30 21:24:35] micmix : BitMEX_Sam: what was going on with the API at 12 UTC? I was getting response '400 mark' but the orders were still placed?
[2016-06-30 21:26:02] BitMEX_Sam : "400 mark"?
[2016-06-30 21:26:12] BitMEX_Sam : Was it exactly at 12:00 UTC?
[2016-06-30 21:26:52] micmix : 2016-06-30T11:51:55.602Z BitMEX: API returned '400 mark'
[2016-06-30 21:27:13] micmix : '400 mark' was the whole HTTP reply

[2016-06-30 21:29:06] BitMEX_Sam : How many of these did you receive?
[2016-06-30 21:29:47] BitMEX_Sam : Ah I see the error. Just a few minutes, investigating
[2016-06-30 21:30:06] micmix : hundreds
[2016-06-30 21:31:58] micmix : that cost me couple of coins on both accounts
[2016-06-30 21:34:41] BitMEX_Sam : micmix: Investigating this, going to get in touch with Wally
[2016-06-30 21:35:09] turtlefight : jung1: i also believe there could be a bigger dump ahead
[2016-06-30 21:35:18] turtlefight : but its not easy to play it
[2016-06-30 21:35:41] turtlefight : the markets can stay longer irrational than you can stay solvent^^
[2016-06-30 21:40:13] BitMEX_Sam : micmix: I'll send you an email when we have an explanation. I'm reading two disruptions, one 11:52:01Z to 11:54:13Z, another 12:04:56Z to 12:05:42Z

[2016-06-30 23:06:30] ayy_lmao : i didnt pay that 0.2% fee funding for nothing
[2016-06-30 23:06:37] lockhedge : great charts to see Bitcoin OTC demand in emerging markets https://coin.dance/volume/localbitcoins/VEF
[2016-06-30 23:06:38] justinlooking : lol

[2016-06-30 23:09:34] zanza : Is Corexit happening?
[2016-06-30 23:23:20] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : Is there an API call to get the next predicted funding rate?
[2016-06-30 23:24:59] BitMEX_Sam : IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb: If you get the instrument from `/api/v1/instrument`, it's the field `indicativeFundingRate`
[2016-06-30 23:29:19] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : Thanks @BitMEX_Sam
[2016-06-30 23:43:18] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: Funding rate is negative for shorts, just wondering why I'm being charged funding rate?
[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 00:01:25] d_ : ty
[2016-07-01 00:01:37] BitMEX_Sam : Trade history dharmabum
[2016-07-01 00:01:39] BitMEX_Sam : Not Wallet History
[2016-07-01 00:01:42] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: Wow, above you say "A negative fee is a credit."
[2016-07-01 00:01:47] BitMEX_Sam : https://www.bitmex.com/app/tradeHistory
[2016-07-01 00:01:53] BitMEX_Sam : dharmabum: Those are two separate things I'm referring to
[2016-07-01 00:01:55] dharmabum : BitMEX_Sam: Will check!
[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.
[2016-07-01 00:15:07] BitMEX_Arthur : Yes if you went long 1 Bitcoin at $100, and shorted 100 XBTUSD at $100 you will always have $100 worth of Bitcoin as the price goes up or down
[2016-07-01 00:15:20] BitMEX_Arthur : Yes the funding will be a small profit to you
[2016-07-01 00:15:27] BitMEX_Arthur : Assuming shorts are receiving
[2016-07-01 00:16:36] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: Understand. And if I remove the hedge, take the accumulated charges on the position, then the USD amount of the hedged amount will be identical (well slightly up due to -ve funding)?
[2016-07-01 00:17:02] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: Apologies for the basic questions. I'm just wanting to know exactly what the (er!) position is here! :)
[2016-07-01 00:19:55] BitMEX_Arthur : Yes when you revalue your long Bitcoin in USD, and then take the profit and loss from your XBTUSD short, the sum will equal the original USD value, this is ignoring funding
[2016-07-01 00:20:43] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: Perfect. One more Q...
[2016-07-01 00:20:58] Zen Trader : Does Bitmex use the CCSS the new security standard and if so might I ask how well you fared
[2016-07-01 00:21:34] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: I'm guessing but I assume funding is lumped in with CashRebalance transactions (as appear in Wallet history) - correct?
[2016-07-01 00:21:35] Zen Trader : The Cryptocurrency security Standard
[2016-07-01 00:22:42] Zen Trader : It seems open source Bitmex guys should at least take a look they outline the best practice for protecting wallets ect a whole manual of advice and its open to the public.
[2016-07-01 00:23:52] Zen Trader : Andreas Antonopoulos is involved
[2016-07-01 00:24:36] Zen Trader : BitMEX_Arthur: Does Bitmex use the CCSS the new security standard ?

[2016-07-01 00:26:38] BitMEX_Arthur : filter on the `Execution Type`
[2016-07-01 00:26:42] BitMEX_Arthur : for `Funding`
[2016-07-01 00:27:29] BitMEX_Arthur : There is a separate line item for funding credits and debits
[2016-07-01 00:27:39] BitMEX_Arthur : Zen Trader: Will have to take a look at that
[2016-07-01 00:33:05] Zen Trader : You really should CCSS provide you with a security standard and ways to protect your wallets against hacks, Multi sig arrangements, generating enough randomness for wallet generation. secure environments allot of really good stuff.

[2016-07-01 00:37:25] dharmabum : BitMEX_Arthur: that fills out the correct query in the filter entry field. Not untuitive UX though :(

[2016-07-01 02:04:32] rapidtrades : there's no btc/cny here, jew
[2016-07-01 02:05:14] mikeh : so when I close my long, does the realised PNL come out of it? it makes up almost my entire balance..
[2016-07-01 02:06:24] ayy_lmao : when you close it it gets locked until rebalance
[2016-07-01 02:06:53] mikeh : and then the realised pnl is deducted?
[2016-07-01 02:07:17] ayy_lmao : your pnl will go to withheld profit
[2016-07-01 02:07:26] rapidtrades : china is on par with finex now at 674 @ayy_lmao
[2016-07-01 02:07:37] mikeh : my balance is .25 and realised PNL at -.23 because i had left this in place below my buy in price for days
[2016-07-01 02:08:04] ayy_lmao : then on rebalance withheld balance goes to 0 and you get to use your pnl
[2016-07-01 02:09:13] mikeh : i'm a programmer but this hurts my brain
[2016-07-01 02:09:15] ayy_lmao : loss?
[2016-07-01 02:09:18] ayy_lmao : or profit?
[2016-07-01 02:09:20] rapidtrades : ok futures $2 premium....could mean a pump soon
[2016-07-01 02:09:24] mikeh : yes negative PNL
[2016-07-01 02:09:30] rapidtrades : $2 is a lot for 6 hrs
[2016-07-01 02:09:39] ayy_lmao : as soon as you close it gets taken away from wallet balance
[2016-07-01 02:09:44] ayy_lmao : depending on how much you close
[2016-07-01 02:10:37] mikeh : i'll close with 50% ROE but the rebalance fees will eat almost my entire balance
[2016-07-01 02:11:58] subjective : mikeh: I have a large negative PNL for bad trades 2 weeks ago, should I just create a new account so it doesn't eat into new profit?
[2016-07-01 02:12:15] mikeh : lol I have no clue, just working this out myself
[2016-07-01 02:12:29] ayy_lmao : wut
[2016-07-01 02:12:47] ayy_lmao : once your trades are done and settled they have no future impact
[2016-07-01 02:12:55] cekseh : Uh, that isn't how it works sub
[2016-07-01 02:12:58] cekseh : lol
[2016-07-01 02:13:49] mikeh : so originally I had .3, my long built up realised PNL to -.23, when I close I might have like .31 but then the -23 is deducted right?
[2016-07-01 02:14:17] ayy_lmao : you are at -.25 loss with a long?
[2016-07-01 02:14:20] ayy_lmao : confused on that part
[2016-07-01 02:14:52] mikeh : yes my entry price was 654 and we were below that for days adding to my Realised PNL..
[2016-07-01 02:15:14] ayy_lmao : what does your unrealized pnl say
[2016-07-01 02:15:26] ayy_lmao : dont pay attention to realized
[2016-07-01 02:15:31] mikeh : .09 (48%)
[2016-07-01 02:15:40] ayy_lmao : realized means it already happened
[2016-07-01 02:15:51] ayy_lmao : it means you already settled those gains or debts
[2016-07-01 02:15:59] ayy_lmao : then you are in profit
[2016-07-01 02:16:10] ayy_lmao : and you will gain 0.09 if u close
[2016-07-01 02:16:14] mikeh : hmm, if it already happened then I wonder why my wallet balance is stil lat .25
[2016-07-01 02:16:29] ayy_lmao : have you only deposited .25
[2016-07-01 02:16:55] rapidtrades : well it's a good thing u only deposited 0.25...when u can't even calculate ur profit
[2016-07-01 02:17:25] ayy_lmao : as i said, unrealised will only have effect on you
[2016-07-01 02:17:51] ayy_lmao : realized takes into account any previous gains or losses you occurred on previous trades that you are no longer in
[2016-07-01 02:17:57] mikeh : i only had .3 since before this trade
[2016-07-01 02:18:41] mikeh : hmm yeah i had .6 originally.. it's weird that other trades would be in the position row.
[2016-07-01 02:18:55] ayy_lmao : dont know what to say
[2016-07-01 02:19:09] ayy_lmao : best to ask the mods as they can see your account balance and history

[2016-07-01 02:36:17] QuantFocus : but things are looking pretty good
[2016-07-01 02:39:27] BitMEX_Wally : subjective: A negative PNL from a few weeks ago does not effect how much you make or lose now. Opening a new account changes nothing
[2016-07-01 02:41:16] QuantFocus : BitMEX_Wally: i think he was joking
[2016-07-01 02:41:42] QuantFocus : BitMEX_Wally: buuut. since you're here. i'm having trouble getting haas connected to the api
[2016-07-01 02:41:56] QuantFocus : any tips
[2016-07-01 02:43:16] BitMEX_Wally : mikeh: Your wallet balance is 0.25 but you have 0.13104 of unrealised profit so your margin balance is 0.3815406. This profit is withheld and is showing as pending in your wallet: https://www.bitmex.com/app/wallet
[2016-07-01 02:43:58] BitMEX_Wally : mikeh: CashRebalance is not a fee, it is just the PNL from trading and funding moving into your wallet
[2016-07-01 02:44:04] BitMEX_Wally : QuantFocus: What errors are you getting?
[2016-07-01 02:44:42] QuantFocus : BitMEX_Wally: it just isn't connecting. it requires email and password to sync, which is sketchy to start with
[2016-07-01 02:45:01] QuantFocus : BitMEX_Wally: i'm thinking it might be due to 2fa
[2016-07-01 02:45:44] BitMEX_Wally : What exactly is requiring your password to sync?
[2016-07-01 02:46:07] BitMEX_Wally : Our API accepts API keys, or Access Tokens, or for really simple uses you can send username and password
[2016-07-01 02:46:08] QuantFocus : haasbot
[2016-07-01 02:46:41] BitMEX_Wally : I wouldn't give your username and password to hassbot. Create an API key and tell it to use that
[2016-07-01 02:47:07] nip : BitMEX_Wally: how often do you set fair basis on XBTU16
[2016-07-01 02:47:12] QuantFocus : well, it doesn't have the option to utilize API keys for :bitmex: yet
[2016-07-01 02:47:34] QuantFocus : it uses API keys from other sites, but i don't think it's been implemented yet
[2016-07-01 02:47:44] nip : it seems like mark price lags when there is a big move
[2016-07-01 02:48:55] BitMEX_Wally : QuantFocus: We added API key support for Haasbot, tell them to use it
[2016-07-01 02:49:10] QuantFocus : haha, ok
[2016-07-01 02:49:14] QuantFocus : i'll put the request in
[2016-07-01 02:49:50] QuantFocus : thank you, as always, sir
[2016-07-01 02:50:11] BitMEX_Wally : In the mean time create a second account with no 2FA and give it that username/password?
[2016-07-01 02:51:41] BitMEX_Wally : nip: We adjust the basis manually whenever the mark price is not inside the impact adjusted spread
[2016-07-01 02:52:40] QuantFocus : BitMEX_Wally: yea, i have a second account with 0 balance set up for testing purposes
[2016-07-01 02:52:50] QuantFocus : i'm reluctant to deposit though, without 2FA
[2016-07-01 02:53:52] nip : BitMEX_Wally: it is done manually?
[2016-07-01 02:54:55] BitMEX_Wally : nip: Yes, if the contract is liquid we enable the fair price method of 'ImpactMidPrice' and it is done automatically. But at the moment we do it manually
[2016-07-01 02:55:11] BitMEX_Wally : I just adjusted the basis down slightly on XBTU16 (without causing any liquidations)
[2016-07-01 02:55:31] nip : i guess that makes sense to avoid margin calls that trigger margin calls
[2016-07-01 02:55:45] nip : the open interest is a lot bigger than the thin orderbook would suggest
[2016-07-01 02:56:18] BitMEX_Wally : nip: Yes, liquidation orders in the book are ignored for the purposes of calculating the impact spread, etc
[2016-07-01 03:03:08] fineregex : BitMEX_Wally: sorry, could we really saving something going in and out of deals ever 8 hours before funding (given the same entry price)?
[2016-07-01 03:04:33] BitMEX_Wally : fineregex: Let's suppose you are long XBTUSD and the funding rate is 0.309%. If you sell at 11:59 UTC and buy back at 12:01 UTC at exactly the same price then you have avoided 0.309% and paid 0.15% in maker fees
[2016-07-01 03:05:15] BitMEX_Wally : However, the market makers will put their prices up by 0.3% after funding
[2016-07-01 03:05:36] BitMEX_Wally : So you are unlikely to be able to get the same entry price
[2016-07-01 03:05:38] fineregex : BitMEX_Wally: Some one from BitMEX___ said something sounding like funding was more accurated/decay over time?
[2016-07-01 03:05:49] BitMEX_Wally : The mark price decays over time
[2016-07-01 03:06:03] BitMEX_Wally : But that's just used for unrealised PNL
[2016-07-01 03:07:30] fineregex : so only indirect effect
[2016-07-01 03:07:31] fineregex : thanks
[2016-07-01 03:07:35] BitMEX_Wally : So for example, let's say the spot price is $100.00 and the funding rate is 1%. At 12:01 the mark price will be $101 and at 16:00 the mark price will be $100.50 and at 19:59 the mark price will be $100.00 and at 20:00 all longs will pay $1, but then the mark price will jump up $1 to $101.00
[2016-07-01 03:07:53] BitMEX_Wally : So effectively at the point of paying funding your margin balance does not change (wallet balance + unrealised PNL)
[2016-07-01 03:08:15] BitMEX_Wally : But longs are constantly paying funding via their unrealisedPNL decreasing throughout the session
[2016-07-01 03:08:41] BitMEX_Wally : This is so that charging funding does not cause liquidations
[2016-07-01 03:08:55] fineregex : yes
[2016-07-01 03:09:25] BitMEX_Wally : I've seen people sell 1% below spot to avoid a 0.11% funding rate
[2016-07-01 03:09:27] BitMEX_Wally : Happens nearly every day
[2016-07-01 03:11:22] fineregex : yes, wont sell below the 680 level
[2016-07-01 03:12:00] ayy_lmao : bistamp lmao
[2016-07-01 03:12:45] fineregex : but i may put up some huge sell limit orders at 685 or the 50 minutes if anyone is interested ;)
[2016-07-01 03:13:01] fineregex : bitstamp had sellwalls all week
[2016-07-01 03:18:41] mikeh : thanks wally but why does Realised PNL show -.23, if it's from previous trades it doesn't make sense to me to put it alongside the current position
[2016-07-01 03:19:48] ayy_lmao : its nice to know how much your up or down from all previous trades
[2016-07-01 03:20:52] mikeh : yeah i think it's just confusing for it to be where it is..
[2016-07-01 03:21:10] BitMEX_Wally : mikeh: We don't really have the concept of 'per trade' PNL, so we show cumulative PNL for the instrument. If you hover over the realised PNL number it will show you how much realisedPNL since the last rebalance (i.e. the last 24 hours).
[2016-07-01 03:22:59] mikeh : mmm, when you hover it says realised profit and loss on this contract

[2016-07-01 03:43:52] mikeh : "Tesla said in a blog post that the autopilot didn’t notice the white side of the tractor trailer against a brightly lit sky"

[2016-07-01 04:12:02] fineregex : BitMEX_Wally: When i switch for example from cross to 3x and back to cross, then for a moment the liquidation price is display much higher, assuming the whole account's cross margin on that contract even if that position is tiny.
[2016-07-01 04:12:24] fineregex : *cross leverage
[2016-07-01 04:32:10] BitMEX_Wally : fineregex: Switching to cross actually puts it on max leverage (so it locks out the smallest amount of margin) and then turns on the auto top-up of losses from available balance. This is why the liquidiation appears higher for a moment
[2016-07-01 04:33:25] BitMEX_Wally : micmix: The API errors around 12:00 UTC were my fault, I was adding some instrumentation to debug a prod issue and got the config wrong. Sorry for the inconvenience.
[2016-07-01 04:34:07] micmix : BitMEX_Wally: well inconvenience cost me about 1.5 BTC
[2016-07-01 04:34:57] BitMEX_Wally : micmix: send an email to support@bimex.com with details and we'll look into iy

[2016-07-01 04:51:32] micmix : d_: I checked the log, no issues with the REKT bot. It posted last message at 3:39 UTC
[2016-07-01 04:51:46] d_ : lol
[2016-07-01 04:52:13] d_ : I wasn't actually being serious. It's just entertaining and my favorite feature on this exchange.
[2016-07-01 04:52:37] micmix : d_: I'm glad you like it, I had fun writing it :smile:
[2016-07-01 05:28:39] fineregex : rekt bot is sad for the people, quiet his job

[2016-07-01 05:36:18] fineregex : no, think about it, this job must worst than "socialmedia-moderator"
[2016-07-01 05:36:51] fineregex : not only having to deal with all the issues but also representing them in public
[2016-07-01 05:37:22] fineregex : *must be

[2016-07-01 05:44:08] germanjew : I love the REKT bot! HODL! HODL! HODL! HODL!
[2016-07-01 06:26:37] Zen Trader : where does one find the rekt bot
[2016-07-01 06:26:54] mike1000 : BitMEX_Wally: can you please give me a sample API request to create a trailing stop limit order? I'm messing with parameters but get various errors like 'invalid price'. Thx
[2016-07-01 06:34:13] nip : mike1000: just short XBT with all your BTC
[2016-07-01 06:34:29] nip : thats where one finds rekt
[2016-07-01 06:35:07] mike1000 : you talking to me or Zen Trader? @nip
[2016-07-01 06:35:17] nip : Zen Trader: yeah, sorry

[2016-07-01 06:54:15] fineregex : BitMEX_Wally: ping @nip
[2016-07-01 06:56:13] nip : I think I saw a popup. something like "account is in margin call" and strange things happened to the mark price in XBJ24H
[2016-07-01 06:57:43] nip : I was the buyer at 68630 through 68645
[2016-07-01 06:58:17] nip : I think it somehow liquidated my position every time someone sold into it?
[2016-07-01 06:58:25] nip : look at the recent trades in xbj24h
[2016-07-01 06:59:07] nip : i think the liquidation stuff was actually filled in your dpe thing rather than my account, so nothing is in my trade logs...

[2016-07-01 07:12:57] nip : i think it took money and positions out of my account
[2016-07-01 07:13:38] micmix : BitMEX_Wally: plz check XBTJPY index price around 2016-07-01T06:47:22.216Z, I think it dropped to 68k or so
[2016-07-01 07:14:05] BitMEX_Wally : micmix: The index price comes from Quione
[2016-07-01 07:14:26] nip : i think it took unrealized profit + the margin for whatever i had in xbj
[2016-07-01 07:14:28] micmix : BitMEX_Wally: yep I know, that would explain liquidation
[2016-07-01 07:14:35] nip : maybe even margin related to orders
[2016-07-01 07:14:58] nip : im in cross margin mode which may have complicated it
[2016-07-01 07:15:04] BitMEX_Wally : Yes, it looks like Quoine published a price of 65000 between 2016.07.01 06:47:30.000 UTC and 2016.07.01 06:48:15.000 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:15:46] micmix : yep, I noticed my bot got scared and sold everything
[2016-07-01 07:17:15] nip : which liquidated my long position
[2016-07-01 07:17:32] nip : and since im in cross mode took all my available btc as well i think
[2016-07-01 07:17:45] nip : except for maintenance margin in my other positions
[2016-07-01 07:18:07] BitMEX_Wally : nip: You were not liquidated
[2016-07-01 07:18:24] nip : i was "margin called" or whatever
[2016-07-01 07:18:43] nip : and it took my xbj positions, etc
[2016-07-01 07:18:59] BitMEX_Wally : nip: Your account entered margin call and it canceled some open orders
[2016-07-01 07:19:04] BitMEX_Wally : You didn't have an XBJ24H position
[2016-07-01 07:19:14] BitMEX_Wally : You had already closed it at 2016.07.01 06:26:44 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:19:47] nip : when was the account in margin call from?
[2016-07-01 07:20:32] BitMEX_Wally : It was in "margin call" at 2016.07.01 06:47:36.35 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:20:43] nip : im not talking about that position from 06:26
[2016-07-01 07:20:56] nip : im talkling about the one i opened when the xbj stuff was happening
[2016-07-01 07:21:12] BitMEX_Wally : You didn't have an open position
[2016-07-01 07:21:17] BitMEX_Wally : You had some open orders that were cancelled
[2016-07-01 07:22:27] BitMEX_Wally : Basically you had some orders to buy at 68638 and when the mark price dropped to 65000 you did not have enough margin to cover the difference, so the account went into "margin call" and the open orders were cancelled.
[2016-07-01 07:22:30] BitMEX_Wally : No positions were liquidated
[2016-07-01 07:23:28] nip : the 68645 order filled
[2016-07-01 07:23:36] nip : so did the 68630 order
[2016-07-01 07:24:06] nip : look at who the buyer is for those orders and anything in between in price
[2016-07-01 07:24:18] BitMEX_Wally : They were not fillled
[2016-07-01 07:24:31] BitMEX_Wally : Submitted at 2016.07.01 06:30:02.283447000 UTC and canceled at 2016.07.01 06:47:36.350489000 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:24:42] BitMEX_Wally : Look at your trade history here:
[2016-07-01 07:24:43] BitMEX_Wally : https://www.bitmex.com/app/tradeHistory
[2016-07-01 07:24:50] nip : not my trade history
[2016-07-01 07:25:00] nip : the trade history of xbj24h
[2016-07-01 07:25:14] BitMEX_Wally : Then what contract are we talking about?
[2016-07-01 07:26:21] nip : someone sold 100 into 68645 at 06:47:30 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:26:36] BitMEX_Wally : You were long 750 contracts of XBJ24H and you submitted a sell order to sell 750 at 70332. This order was submitted at 2016.07.01 06:05:41 and it was filled at 2016.07.01 06:26:44 UTC. Since then you have been flat XBJ24H
[2016-07-01 07:27:00] nip : there was a second sell at 06:47:25 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:27:06] nip : one second later i go into margin call
[2016-07-01 07:27:25] nip : im asking you to look at what account is the buyer for those 2 orders
[2016-07-01 07:28:42] nip : in XBJ24H i had 2 orders filled 1 and 6 seconds before i got liquidated. i was watching when this happened. i then clicked cancel all since my margin was taken to 0.
[2016-07-01 07:29:25] BitMEX_Wally : nip: You were not liquidated
[2016-07-01 07:29:43] BitMEX_Wally : nip: Someone submitted a buy order at 68645 before yours
[2016-07-01 07:29:51] BitMEX_Wally : So it had time priority and was filled before you
[2016-07-01 07:30:03] nip : theres no way
[2016-07-01 07:30:46] BitMEX_Wally : An account submitted an order to buy 6500 at 68645 at 2016.07.01 06:29:51 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:31:04] BitMEX_Wally : You submitted your order to buy 750 at 68645 at 2016.07.01 06:30:02 UTC
[2016-07-01 07:32:15] BitMEX_Wally : Ahh, it was a hidden order
[2016-07-01 07:32:20] BitMEX_Wally : That is why you could not see it in the order book
[2016-07-01 07:33:13] BitMEX_Wally : So later when micmix's bot panic sold, it hit those hidden bids before yours
[2016-07-01 07:34:15] BitMEX_Wally : Then a few seconds later your orders were canceled
[2016-07-01 07:34:17] nip : so theres a huge maybe 3000 point gap in price with a buy at 68629. I place orders from 68630 to 68645. and a bot somehow chose 68645 to place a hidden order 9 seconds before i did?
[2016-07-01 07:34:42] nip : i saw my account run out of margin when this happened
[2016-07-01 07:35:08] nip : i just wish i could see more in the logs
[2016-07-01 07:36:04] BitMEX_Wally : nip: Your account ran out of margin because the initial margin requirement for your open orders got too big
[2016-07-01 07:36:52] BitMEX_Wally : If you are bidding at 68638 when the mark price is 65000 then you need to fund the difference as it will be an immediate unrealised loss when the order is filled. This difference is called gross open premium and is added onto the initial margin requirement
[2016-07-01 07:37:18] BitMEX_Wally : When the mark price dropped the initial margin increased so much your account did not have enough available balance, and so the account went into "margin call" and those orders were cancelled
[2016-07-01 07:38:36] BitMEX_Wally : The best bid (visible) was 68629 and there was this hidden order 1 tick above at 68630, and then you also placed a visible order at 68630
[2016-07-01 07:39:41] nip : and there was a hidden order below 68630 and 68640 somehow?
