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.

[2016-07-12 16:51:12] ggwp : I find their kyc policy annoying
[2016-07-12 16:51:34] johndoe : ggwp: i've deposited/withdrew USD, so haven't had KYC issues

[2016-07-12 16:51:55] elmorte : Don't remember any KYC at finex...
[2016-07-12 16:52:01] ggwp : never had to send them an ID?
[2016-07-12 16:52:04] ggwp : scan
[2016-07-12 16:52:08] elmorte : probably coz of what @johndoe siad
[2016-07-12 16:52:10] elmorte : said
[2016-07-12 16:52:34] elmorte : Polo had to send a photo holding the ID
[2016-07-12 16:52:43] ggwp : but name/last name DoB address is obligatory
[2016-07-12 16:52:47] daveberns1 : elmorte: would they both take that into account?
[2016-07-12 16:52:48] ggwp : elmorte: yeah lol

[2016-07-12 16:53:00] elmorte : daveberns1: No, mark doesn't
[2016-07-12 16:53:09] elmorte : sorry, spot doesn't
[2016-07-12 16:53:32] elmorte : spot is exactly as defined, current price
[2016-07-12 16:53:46] elmorte : Spot on sept == spot on swap
[2016-07-12 16:54:18] wotan : nice push voer 666
[2016-07-12 16:56:01] elmorte : ggwp: yeah, my finex account is corporate and I sure as hell didn't send any docs

[2016-07-12 17:02:30] ggwp : anyone have any qualms about the new EU laws on AML which'll impact crypto exchanges?
[2016-07-12 17:09:34] smoker : ggwp: where i can read that new eu laws?
[2016-07-12 17:10:45] ggwp : coindesk had an article iirc
[2016-07-12 17:11:02] smoker : i think i checked that day ago
[2016-07-12 17:11:11] ggwp : opinions?
[2016-07-12 17:13:34] smoker : ggwp: i see its aimed at terrorist financing im not a terroris so i dont know lol
[2016-07-12 17:16:57] elmorte : smoker: that's exactly what a terrorist would say!
[2016-07-12 17:17:14] daveberns1 : elmorte: so essentially that spread just represents a low daily rate?
[2016-07-12 17:17:19] smoker : oh no now u got me ahahah
[2016-07-12 17:17:26] daveberns1 : *swap rate
[2016-07-12 17:19:07] smoker : i guess they just wanna slap some taxes on our btcs
[2016-07-12 17:19:43] elmorte : daveberns1: the spread between spot and mark? That's just adjusted for time value, using % fair basis
[2016-07-12 17:19:45] ggwp : smoker: haha but it affects everyone, not only terrorists. I'd like to get a feel for how privacy-concious the community here is.
[2016-07-12 17:20:04] elmorte : Fair Value = Indicative Settlement Price * % Fair Basis * (Days Until Expiry / 365)
[2016-07-12 17:20:11] elmorte : from: https://www.bitmex.com/app/fairPriceMarking
[2016-07-12 17:24:57] johndoe : ggwp: sometimes people who have good reason to be privacy-conscious usually wouldn't want to get into detail about the fact that they are privacy-conscious or why they are privacy-conscious since that threatens their privacy :)
[2016-07-12 17:25:22] ggwp : johndoe: great point there
[2016-07-12 17:25:24] smoker : ggwp: soon it will be: sir u cant have that,sir we will tax u on that, sir we will take that from u lol
[2016-07-12 17:25:46] ggwp : smoker: already like that in some countries

[2016-07-12 18:29:42] justinlooking : smells like 700-705
[2016-07-12 18:36:16] smoker : smells like they are just waiting for u to short so it goes higher later lol
[2016-07-12 18:37:05] French_Canadian : eth dead?
[2016-07-12 18:37:51] smoker : ded?
[2016-07-12 19:00:10] mrp1nk : yeah seems so
[2016-07-12 19:55:10] mrp1nk : ia
[2016-07-12 19:55:12] mrp1nk : another
[2016-07-12 19:55:40] mrp1nk : sorry: another btc push could push it to dETH
[2016-07-12 19:56:43] aethlios : When we hit new ATH then the real party begins....
[2016-07-12 19:57:52] solesituation : how can you fetch Chart (XBJ24H
[2016-07-12 19:58:57] solesituation : i meant how can you fetch it on trading view.
[2016-07-12 19:59:21] BitMEX_Sam : solesituation: Unfortunately you can't, they are not listing any new Bitcoin products for some time.
[2016-07-12 19:59:25] BitMEX_Sam : You can get a fullscreen chart at https://www.bitmex.com/app/chart?symbol=XBJ24H
[2016-07-12 20:26:44] solesituation : BitMEX_Sam: Thank you.
[2016-07-12 20:32:44] yerb : BitMEX_Sam: coul you make an option to customize the plus/minus buttons and make a total of 6 of them
[2016-07-12 20:33:03] yerb : so we can put in our own incremen values
[2016-07-12 20:41:51] justinlooking : somewhat related, i see derpy behavour when trying to type in price
[2016-07-12 20:46:40] justinlooking : if u bksp the cents from a price (eg remove 49 from 674.49), the cursor jumps to beginning of the price
[2016-07-12 20:47:18] fineregex : yes
[2016-07-12 20:48:21] justinlooking : so if u in a rush, u change price, tab, enter, enter (or tab tab enter enter to sell) in a perfect storm u could get roughly caressed
[2016-07-12 20:49:43] rullwull : mentioned it...yea, it can create troubles
[2016-07-12 21:02:37] BitMEX_Sam : Thanks, I'm going to make sure that gets fixed
[2016-07-12 21:02:40] BitMEX_Sam : That's a new regression
[2016-07-12 21:07:21] BTCDJS : BitMEX_Sam: did I get skipped during funding?
[2016-07-12 21:07:36] BitMEX_Sam : Funding is in 7 hours
[2016-07-12 21:07:54] BitMEX_Sam : See your trade history: https://www.bitmex.com/app/tradeHistory
[2016-07-12 21:08:00] BTCDJS : My unrealised PNL is the same as before an hour ago
[2016-07-12 21:08:14] BitMEX_Sam : Funding doesn't affect unrealised PNL
[2016-07-12 21:08:18] BitMEX_Sam : It affects realised PNL.
[2016-07-12 21:09:02] BTCDJS : But you know what I mean right?
[2016-07-12 21:09:29] BitMEX_Sam : Was my explanation not clear?
[2016-07-12 21:09:43] BTCDJS : it usually adds that to my margin then starts from zero again
[2016-07-12 21:09:54] BitMEX_Sam : You're thinking of rebalance.
[2016-07-12 21:10:00] BitMEX_Sam : Funding goes directly to realised PNL.
[2016-07-12 21:10:27] BitMEX_Sam : It just so happens that rebalance & funding are at the same time once a day.
[2016-07-12 21:11:10] BTCDJS : Ok
[2016-07-12 21:21:53] Agro : where does bitmex operate? i'm based in the usa, cant seem to trade
[2016-07-12 21:23:46] justinlooking : muh liberty right?
[2016-07-12 21:33:40] mrp1nk : here we go eth
[2016-07-12 21:34:43] justinlooking : ?u mean btc?
[2016-07-12 21:42:54] BitMEX_Sam : Agro: We're incorporated in the Seychelles
[2016-07-12 21:44:11] Agro : ah, i see. i've been snooping around on the website, and i think i can trade in hk?
[2016-07-12 21:52:25] mrp1nk : justinlooking: i mean btceth
[2016-07-12 21:56:07] rullwull : Agro: there is no verification, why you can't trade?
[2016-07-12 21:57:18] Agro : well, on the register page, it says i can't deposit http://i.imgur.com/PCMpFb5.png
[2016-07-12 21:58:29] rullwull : oh shit, didn't know about limitation for us, use vpn
[2016-07-12 21:59:17] Agro : yeah, i guess i've gotta do that.. still, would i be able to transfer from a us bank acc
[2016-07-12 21:59:50] rullwull : there is no fiat, only crypto
[2016-07-12 21:59:55] Agro : ah
[2016-07-12 22:00:05] Agro : i have to deposit with btc/eth or something then?
[2016-07-12 22:00:06] rullwull : actually only bitcoins
[2016-07-12 22:00:20] Agro : i see, would i be able to transfer from something like coinbase
[2016-07-12 22:00:43] Agro : does bitmex give a btc address i can deposit to or somethin
[2016-07-12 22:00:57] rullwull : yes
[2016-07-12 22:01:09] Agro : alright, awesome
[2016-07-12 22:01:19] rullwull : i can give you mine)
[2016-07-12 22:01:58] BitMEX_Sam : Agro: We do not support US residents - if we find you are using a VPN to register we will be forced to close your account and send your deposit back.
[2016-07-12 22:02:11] Agro : ah
[2016-07-12 22:02:18] aethlios : BitMEX_Sam: Hi Sam, I was thinking of a new swap BTC to Gold, perpetual, very innovative and useful, it will make headlines.
[2016-07-12 22:03:51] rullwull : BitMEX_Sam: what if i use vpn, but I'm not us resident?
[2016-07-12 22:04:44] BitMEX_Sam : That's different. The action is only taken if we determine the account is owned by a US resident.
[2016-07-12 22:05:46] Agro : hmm, would it be ok if i traded under an institution that isn't based in the usa or something? is there any other way i could do this
[2016-07-12 22:06:01] rullwull : how can you determine? its impossible if always use vpn
[2016-07-12 22:07:29] rullwull : and what if i travel in us, can i trade from us?
[2016-07-12 22:08:24] BitMEX_Sam : Unfortunately I can't comment further.
[2016-07-12 22:12:15] wurstgelee : its easy. just dont be in the us
[2016-07-12 22:12:18] wurstgelee : ;)
[2016-07-12 22:13:52] rullwull : i already got an idea of smart contract app that can register an accounts for us customers and trade for them)
[2016-07-12 22:15:14] Adura : You're trying to get the US on the case of sites like this?
[2016-07-12 22:22:17] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBJ24H`: Buy 999 @ 70415.0
[2016-07-12 22:24:38] lockhedge : Bitfinex found a way to rely on the exception to the CFTC’s jurisdiction after this case http://www.cftc.gov/PressRoom/PressReleases/pr7380-16 they can still accept US customers after they found a way for "actual delivery" via BitGo's MultiSig wallets
[2016-07-12 22:40:07] 1QaZxSw2 : rullwull: guys please dont attract regulators attracion. if bitmex learns you are a us resident they have no choice but to shut your account
[2016-07-12 22:41:05] 1QaZxSw2 : if yoy use vpn, no exchange can determine your origin with certainty simply due to that fact
[2016-07-12 22:41:46] 1QaZxSw2 : but if they do find out some way .... they have two choices: close your account or be raped by us regulators
[2016-07-12 22:42:14] 1QaZxSw2 : guess what the will choose?
[2016-07-12 22:42:20] rullwull : 1QaZxSw2: sure, i won't) just surprised that there is such an issue
[2016-07-12 22:43:21] 1QaZxSw2 : but bitmex wont intentionally go examining every user and investigate them, they have too much sh!t to do
[2016-07-12 22:43:59] rullwull : so simply do not ask questions and use vpn)
[2016-07-12 22:45:05] 1QaZxSw2 : so ... this is my advice, not bitmex's ... if you want to go with vpn, no one will know ... but dont go asking on public forums and expect someone to say: yes, its cool just use vpn ... no exchange person can say it
[2016-07-12 22:47:05] rullwull : i understand it very well, just kidding)
[2016-07-12 22:56:10] justinlooking : okc cny orders not confirming :(
[2016-07-12 22:56:29] justinlooking : shenanigans
[2016-07-12 23:05:19] BitMEX_Sam : rullwull: justinlooking: I have a fix for that input bug, turns out it's a Blink (Chrome/Opera) bug
[2016-07-12 23:05:27] BitMEX_Sam : ... My favorite.
[2016-07-12 23:05:44] BitMEX_Sam : Tracking issue is https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/7253, in the meantime I have something I will deploy that hacks around it
[2016-07-12 23:06:18] rullwull : okc cny do not confirm orders for us customers)
[2016-07-12 23:06:32] rullwull : BitMEX_Sam: thanks
[2016-07-12 23:10:12] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : BitMEX_Sam: Glad to hear that's being fixed. I was experiencing it and hadn't been bothered enough yet to say anything
[2016-07-12 23:10:29] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah it's a pretty bad one actually. Must have come in the latest Chrome update
[2016-07-12 23:10:40] BitMEX_Sam : Technically it affects *everyone* using number inputs with React in Chrome/Opera
[2016-07-12 23:12:03] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : BitMEX_Sam: Wow that is bad. I had another question about funding rates
[2016-07-12 23:13:28] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : It seems to me that the original goal with them was to reflect the cost of funding at Bitfinex. However, once the premium started to become "too high" here, they were reduced dramatically by weighting them with the premium. Recently it seems this has resulted in negative funding rates more often than positive ones, which does not mirror the Bitfinex funding cost. Any thoughts on this?
[2016-07-12 23:14:15] rullwull : BitMEX_Sam: i have it in safari, however in github you mentioned it as unaffected browsers
[2016-07-12 23:14:26] BitMEX_Sam : Odd, I couldn't reproduce it in Safari
[2016-07-12 23:14:40] BitMEX_Sam : https://jsfiddle.net/kmqz6kw8/ ?
[2016-07-12 23:14:46] BitMEX_Sam : & Which Safari version?
[2016-07-12 23:14:56] BitMEX_Sam : IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb: I actually have some thoughts I just wrote about that
[2016-07-12 23:15:15] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : BitMEX_Sam: I missed them. Are tney on the blog?
[2016-07-12 23:15:17] BitMEX_Sam : https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinMarkets/comments/4sf3zp/daily_discussion_tuesday_july_12_2016/d59l9ym
[2016-07-12 23:15:22] rullwull : 9.1.1
[2016-07-12 23:15:32] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : BitMEX_Sam: Great, thanks for the link
[2016-07-12 23:15:44] aethlios : when we make new ATH I will open a dom perignon!!
[2016-07-12 23:15:50] BitMEX_Sam : Hmm, on 9.1 here.
[2016-07-12 23:17:16] rullwull : yes, if i input new numbers after the dot they appear in front of all other numbers
[2016-07-12 23:20:24] wotan : nice one btc
[2016-07-12 23:21:15] justinlooking : would be great if price up/down arrow keys had acceleration
[2016-07-12 23:21:42] justinlooking : or better, could use ctrl+shift modifiers to increment by different amounts
[2016-07-12 23:24:28] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : BitMEX_Sam: So to clarify the funding rates here are actually not supposed to reflect Bitfinex funding rates as stated in the "Earning Interest Income on XBTUSD with Minimised Risk" blog post? "If the USD rate is greater than the Bitcoin rate, sellers of XBTUSD will receive daily Bitcoin interest income." I understand that you had to do something to keep the premium more reasonable but the reaction to a high premium seems to have pushed things too far the other way.
[2016-07-12 23:28:28] BitMEX_Sam : Wally could elaborate more, but there's moe details on exactly how it works at the Swaps Guide (https://www.bitmex.com/app/swapsGuide#premium-index)
[2016-07-12 23:28:53] BitMEX_Arthur : IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb: Basically the swap's funding rate makes sure that where we mark positions is where the product is actually trading
[2016-07-12 23:29:10] BitMEX_Arthur : If the market is in a discount the swap needs to reflect that via the funding rate
[2016-07-12 23:47:59] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : I think I may not have been communicating well. I understand how it works currently. However, `XBTUSD` does not currently trade as it was initially advertised. 47% of the last 38 funding rates were negative, while `.USDBON24H` has **never** been below `.XBTBON24H` in the past 2 months. `XBTUSD` was advertised as a lower risk way to capture the Bitfinex USD funding rate than lending on Bitfinex itself. In the past 12 days for example, the average funding rate has been 0.0024%, or about 0.09% total for that period. Per `.USDBON24H`, lending on Bitfinex during that same period would have netted about 0.77%, about **8.5 times more**. It seems to me like either the previous advertising should be updated to reflect that XBTUSD can no longer be used to capture BFX funding rates or the contract sshould be modified to support the claims made about how it can be used.
[2016-07-12 23:54:26] BitMEX_Arthur : XBTUSD is meant to be a leveraged product that tracks spot Bitcoin. Over the past two months shorts have received a total of 17.4% in interest payments which is vastly higher than bfx. This is because the leverage offered is much greater on XBTUSD.
[2016-07-12 23:54:42] aethlios : order rejected: value of position exceed risk limit. What I do??
[2016-07-12 23:56:23] BitMEX_Sam : aethlios: Contract us directly via support@bitmex.com, we'll talk about raising it
[2016-07-12 23:56:52] aethlios : BitMEX_Sam: I will make a ticket.
[2016-07-13 00:01:27] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : BitMEX_Arthur: Fair enough, as long as it is clear what the goal is. Could you explain though how the percentage of interest payments is affected by leverage? As I see it, as long as the price is close to spot, the interest rate is the interest rate no matter how leveraged traders are.
[2016-07-13 00:11:28] BitMEX_Wally : IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb: Interest is charged the same irrespective of leverage
[2016-07-13 00:12:08] BitMEX_Wally : However the interest rate has been high as a result of the high premium caused by high leverage
[2016-07-13 00:12:38] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : BitMEX_Wally: Ah ok, thanks for clarifying
[2016-07-13 00:57:59] nip : why are the liquidation orders so far from market price yet the dpe is 0%
[2016-07-13 00:59:07] rapidtrades : there are no liqs atm
[2016-07-13 00:59:37] nip : must have been buggy orders were red on my screen
[2016-07-13 01:16:13] rapidtrades : People’s Bank of China sets yuan reference rate at 6.6891 (vs. yesterday at 6.6950)
[2016-07-13 01:16:25] rapidtrades : small yuan strengthening
[2016-07-13 01:17:12] rapidtrades : offshore and onshore yuan now trading at same price
[2016-07-13 01:20:35] subjective : BitMEX_Wally: Do u get fee discount when i refer a user?
[2016-07-13 01:22:29] BitMEX_Wally : subjective: If you refer someone they get 10% discount for 6 months, and you get up to a 20% cut of any trading fees they pay
[2016-07-13 01:26:44] rapidtrades : i never got a discount afaik
[2016-07-13 01:28:37] nip : BitMEX_Wally: why are the china A50 fees much higher than every other contract?
[2016-07-13 01:29:22] BitMEX_Wally : Because it's an equity access product
[2016-07-13 01:29:54] nip : doesnt seem like a good reason to me
[2016-07-13 01:31:33] nip : noone trades it and these are all "access products" in a sense
[2016-07-13 01:31:35] rapidtrades : no knee-jerk dump? last few days we got small pumps
[2016-07-13 01:39:40] BitMEX_Wally : lockhedge: Glad to see you testing out Pegged orders via the API
[2016-07-13 01:42:07] BitMEX_Wally : With ordType: Pegged you do not send a price, because the price is calculated from the peg offset.
[2016-07-13 01:42:53] BitMEX_Wally : At the moment the peg is not updated after order submission, but in the future we will support this
[2016-07-13 01:43:06] lockhedge : BitMEX_Wally: is it not possible to set a limit price, a max. bid / min. ask price?
[2016-07-13 01:44:30] BitMEX_Wally : lockhedge: Not yet, but once we support automatically updating the pegged price we will have a limit price
[2016-07-13 01:45:53] BitMEX_Wally : I need to update the order table to distinguish between the limit price on the order and the price it is currently resting in the order book at
[2016-07-13 01:47:44] lockhedge : ok, great. spread will probably get tighter if this feature is being supported, and you'll save api calls
[2016-07-13 01:48:08] BitMEX_Wally : Yep :)
[2016-07-13 01:52:04] micmix : BitMEX_Wally: does MidPricePeg mean middle of the orderbook?
[2016-07-13 01:57:46] BitMEX_Wally : Yes
[2016-07-13 01:58:27] BitMEX_Wally : At the moment the peg is calculated on order submission only, once it is updated live then MidPricePeg will have to ignore its own orders otherwise there'll be a feedback loop
[2016-07-13 01:58:34] BitMEX_Wally : Or it will have to be hidden or something
[2016-07-13 02:05:16] micmix : yes, I understand. pegs are super nice to have but they are not so useful without the limit price
[2016-07-13 02:05:56] BitMEX_Wally : That's why we haven't announced Pegged orders yet
[2016-07-13 02:06:40] micmix : will you support amending the limit price on pegged orders?
[2016-07-13 02:07:35] BitMEX_Wally : Yes
[2016-07-13 02:07:40] micmix : sweet
[2016-07-13 02:08:30] BitMEX_Wally : We currently leg you amend the pegOffsetValue of a trailing stop, so we'll probably let you amend the pegOffsetValue and limit price of a pegged order
[2016-07-13 02:08:37] micmix : no more racing lockhedge to improve the price by 1 tick :wink:
[2016-07-13 02:08:42] BitMEX_Wally : Hahah
[2016-07-13 02:10:19] lockhedge : we'll just send Wally our limit prices and he will decide who is at the top of the book in less than 1ms :)
[2016-07-13 02:11:14] micmix : that's nice, I won't have to cancel orders at all if I can amend the pegOffsetValue and limit price of a pegged order
[2016-07-13 02:11:14] BitMEX_Wally : If you both submit orders to increase the bid by 1 tick, then I'll have to short-cut to the other guy's limit price plus 1 tick :)
[2016-07-13 02:12:15] micmix : nah, I'll just run small size MM with 1 tick spread
[2016-07-13 02:13:42] micmix : so you'll need an option to ignore bids/asks smaller than some specified size
[2016-07-13 02:14:49] BitMEX_Wally : Maybe I'll let you peg to impactBidPrice too
[2016-07-13 02:15:10] micmix : I would really like that
[2016-07-13 02:15:34] micmix : otherwise anyone could manipulate pegged orders with 1 contract order
[2016-07-13 02:16:29] lockhedge : yes, would be great if we could define the impact notional
[2016-07-13 02:17:37] lockhedge : or set a minimum size for the PrimaryPeg as micmix proposed
[2016-07-13 02:28:10] zanza : bernie sanders meltdown!
[2016-07-13 03:05:03] rapidtrades : zanza: what

[2016-07-13 03:32:21] Rado : 1broker
[2016-07-13 03:32:53] zanza : well, probably myfx has lower fees and MT4
[2016-07-13 03:33:10] zanza : 1broker has clunky interface, but seems ok
[2016-07-13 03:33:32] Rado : Cool

[2016-07-13 03:34:34] Rado : When I was trading stocks and option in the past I was very stressed
[2016-07-13 03:34:47] Rado : I did not use stopps back then
[2016-07-13 03:35:09] Rado : Since I trade crypto I use stopmorder on every trade
[2016-07-13 03:35:29] zanza : i just try to play with lower leverage
[2016-07-13 03:35:37] Rado : My blood presutre is 80/120
[2016-07-13 03:35:38] zanza : i feel like stop makes your vulnerable to get hunted
[2016-07-13 03:35:41] zanza : lol :)
[2016-07-13 03:35:49] zanza : yeah, know that feel
[2016-07-13 03:35:58] Rado : I know how you feel
[2016-07-13 03:36:08] Rado : But it's not true
[2016-07-13 03:36:46] Rado : I am convinced that is the only way to trade

[2016-07-13 04:20:52] rapidtrades : yeah long-term charts are still bearish
[2016-07-13 04:21:27] rapidtrades : if its just a bump to normal QE it shouldn't be a huge move....followed by complete reversal
[2016-07-13 04:21:44] rapidtrades : last time it went up around 1,500 pips
[2016-07-13 04:21:47] boolander : and i'm struggling to find any legit article supporting "heli-money"
[2016-07-13 04:22:06] rapidtrades : exactly...that's the only reason im still in

[2016-07-13 05:08:18] aethlios : bottom, next stop 705.
[2016-07-13 05:10:08] zanza : so the Yen crashing is from Helicopter money expectations ?

[2016-07-13 07:39:49] fineregex : Rado: dont use oil on 1broker, crazy spread and expires regularily. Others things there are cheaper like indices/forex. consider using my link https://1broker.com/m/r.php?i=6217

[2016-07-13 09:09:20] BitMEX_Arthur : they have no more bonds or equities to buy
[2016-07-13 09:10:27] rapidtrades : right but the stimulus they're talking about is only 100-200b...that compares to yearly buying of 700-800b

[2016-07-13 14:18:58] BitMEX_Wally : So the number pad does not work, what about the numbers at the top of the keyboard?
[2016-07-13 14:19:21] yerb : they work
[2016-07-13 14:19:30] yerb : just numpad
[2016-07-13 14:19:46] yerb : but numpad works on all other pages in ithe inputs
[2016-07-13 14:19:57] yerb : just not bitmex
[2016-07-13 14:20:03] BitMEX_Wally : Ok I'll ask BitMEX_Sam to investigate, we changed that code earlier
[2016-07-13 14:20:11] yerb : cool
[2016-07-13 14:20:25] yerb : ill check in chrome now
[2016-07-13 14:21:45] yerb : BitMEX_Wally: same problem in chrome
[2016-07-13 14:21:59] yerb : must be the code change
[2016-07-13 14:23:18] yerb : both fields quantity and price have same issue
[2016-07-13 14:33:05] elmorte : Anyone here get any cold calls regarding selling large quantities of BTC for cash?
[2016-07-13 14:34:02] elmorte : They're willing to fly you out to wherever to meet face to face...
[2016-07-13 14:38:45] Teddy76 : elmorte: From your bank?
[2016-07-13 14:39:06] elmorte : lol, no...a "group of investors"
[2016-07-13 14:39:56] Teddy76 : lol ok sry, misunderstanded :D
[2016-07-13 14:40:20] elmorte : no worries :) glad I'm not talking to myself
[2016-07-13 14:40:31] Teddy76 : no never, but how they get your number?
[2016-07-13 14:40:43] elmorte : From localbitcoins
[2016-07-13 14:42:17] Teddy76 : you're interested to do that? What's price and fund wire way?
[2016-07-13 14:42:46] elmorte : That's the thing...they wanna fly me out to discuss that. I'm just curious.
[2016-07-13 14:43:04] elmorte : It would be cash from what I understand, at a premium
[2016-07-13 14:43:05] Teddy76 : hmmm curious effectively
[2016-07-13 14:43:16] Teddy76 : yeah, what i imagine ;)
[2016-07-13 14:44:44] elmorte : Just wondering if there's some btc scam that I'm not aware of
[2016-07-13 14:45:40] Teddy76 : money laundering imo, i don't see any other reason to buy big amount of BTC via cash
[2016-07-13 14:54:22] cekseh : You land and a taxi takes you to the "hotel"
[2016-07-13 14:54:32] cekseh : Where they proceed to slowly pull out your fingernails
[2016-07-13 14:54:49] cekseh : And remove appendages
[2016-07-13 15:01:16] elmorte : cekseh: possible
[2016-07-13 15:02:28] elmorte : def laundering of some type
[2016-07-13 15:02:54] BitMEX_Sam : How did they get your phone in the first place?
[2016-07-13 15:03:20] elmorte : localbitcoins
[2016-07-13 15:03:27] BitMEX_Sam : Ah.
[2016-07-13 15:05:12] elmorte : I sell a bit for a few obscure currencies in places where I have relatives. Easier to send money for birthdays etc as well :) So they called my relative who gave them my number
[2016-07-13 15:07:33] elmorte : BitMEX_Sam: how come I have a liqdn price for a short position that's worth 1/3 of my available balance?
[2016-07-13 15:08:46] BitMEX_Sam : Shorts always have a liquidation price since your potential liability is infinite
[2016-07-13 15:08:56] BitMEX_Sam : Longs can only go to zero, but shorts can go to infinity
[2016-07-13 15:09:54] rapidtrades : that's deep, yo
[2016-07-13 15:11:13] elmorte : BitMEX_Sam: lol...sorry, I'm long lol
[2016-07-13 15:11:23] elmorte : And it should be 0....but instead it's 162.37
[2016-07-13 15:11:43] rapidtrades : well, now u know elmorte
[2016-07-13 15:11:49] BitMEX_Sam : XBTUSD is an inverse contract, so when you're long you're actually short USD
[2016-07-13 15:13:23] elmorte : BitMEX_Sam: thanks. Just tell me to use a calculator next time so I don't feel so dumb :/
[2016-07-13 15:14:36] elmorte : rapidtrades: so how about a free trip to Milan? You can still go without a visa

[2016-07-13 15:51:42] rapidtrades : the media needs to manufacture another fear story like brexit....so we can dump again 5% for no reason
[2016-07-13 15:52:25] rapidtrades : Bloomberg is looping their Brexit coverage on every break....'Does it feel like 08?'
[2016-07-13 15:52:36] rapidtrades : 'This is panic'
[2016-07-13 15:53:24] rapidtrades : slowly every financial media will turn into ZH

[2016-07-13 15:59:56] DylanT : when are withdrawals processed? the faq is very clear.
[2016-07-13 16:00:30] Skitrx : looks like a fakeout
[2016-07-13 16:00:33] DylanT : isn't*
[2016-07-13 16:01:39] BitMEX_Sam : DylanT: `The cutoff time for Bitcoin withdrawals is 13:00 UTC. Shortly after that, Bitcoin will be sent to the address you specified. BitMEX will be increasing the number of withdrawal times in the near future.`
[2016-07-13 16:02:31] DylanT : thanks
[2016-07-13 16:02:53] BitMEX_Sam : (That's straight from the FAQ)
[2016-07-13 16:03:25] rapidtrades : it's not clear though
[2016-07-13 16:04:38] BitMEX_Sam : How so?
[2016-07-13 16:05:53] rapidtrades : *is
[2016-07-13 16:06:31] DylanT : Shouldn't you be trading rapidly instead of shit posting in here
[2016-07-13 16:09:51] Skitrx : he rapidly trades his opinion
[2016-07-13 16:12:12] rapidtrades : :)
[2016-07-13 16:12:35] rapidtrades : nothing to do here man, bitcoin stuck for weeks now
[2016-07-13 16:13:12] rapidtrades : almost 3 weeks in range
[2016-07-13 16:14:46] rapidtrades : maybe shether will moves stuff around in few days
[2016-07-13 16:15:00] Skitrx : starting to think the fun is over and we're just gonna be pump/dump for a while
[2016-07-13 16:16:05] elmorte : wait, what's the boring part then?
[2016-07-13 16:18:11] Skitrx : it's repetitive
[2016-07-13 16:18:47] Skitrx : and rampant with manipulation
[2016-07-13 16:20:01] rapidtrades : trends and ranges then to alternate...so we're overdue for some boring
[2016-07-13 16:20:13] rapidtrades : tend to *
[2016-07-13 16:25:24] QuantFocus : what's a 'Vegas striper'?

[2016-07-13 16:31:56] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : QuantFocus: maybe there's a p missing?
[2016-07-13 16:32:10] QuantFocus : :smile:
[2016-07-13 16:32:23] QuantFocus : just trolling

[2016-07-13 16:36:45] Rado : so placing orders is illegal?
[2016-07-13 16:36:53] Rado : that's what MMs do
[2016-07-13 16:38:06] rapidtrades : :)
[2016-07-13 16:38:40] rapidtrades : 3 years for trying to outsmart algos/orderbook watchers
[2016-07-13 16:39:14] rapidtrades : clearly a dangerous individual
[2016-07-13 16:40:04] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : rapidtrades: lol
[2016-07-13 16:40:16] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : That's absurd. Since when is placing orders illegal
[2016-07-13 16:40:20] elmorte : What if his large orders executed first?
[2016-07-13 16:40:29] IChTj4OeMavRq6qeIyEb : elmorte: Right, and they could have
[2016-07-13 16:47:35] lockhedge : it's not illegal to place orders but it's illegal to place them without intending that they get filled
[2016-07-13 16:49:38] elmorte : Proving that intent must be a bitch then...unless you leave a trail of evidence
[2016-07-13 16:50:07] BruceKarsh : When will BitMEX add Monero? It's about time...it's a strong tech.
[2016-07-13 16:50:16] rapidtrades : maybe he had a diary :)
[2016-07-13 16:50:47] rapidtrades : today i will place orders then cancel then muahahhaha
