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.

[2016-07-15 15:05:55] nip : im guessing they banned trading more than $1 from mark price? [2016-07-15 15:06:31] BitMEX_Sam : $2 each way [2016-07-15 15:06:44] BitMEX_Sam : Simple way to keep it trading inline with spot but has other difficulties [2016-07-15 15:10:31] blackwhite : so for example some time they would have empty bid or empty ask [2016-07-15 15:11:33] BitMEX_Sam : Right. And consider a rally/dump, who would be willing to buy/sell a perpetual leveraged contract at spot during those times [2016-07-15 15:12:01] BitMEX_Sam : So the best strategy there is likely to trade with full leverage, using leverage essentially as a stop because liquidity won't be there when the price moves. [2016-07-15 15:17:29] blackwhite : you made my mind spin. never thought leverage can serve as stop [2016-07-15 15:17:51] blackwhite : i think the rule is - if nobody sells, i don't see neither [2016-07-15 15:18:01] blackwhite : *sell [2016-07-15 15:20:24] blackwhite : do you mean the trader who stays in position until liquidated? [2016-07-15 15:24:31] blackwhite : Saw $4300 is their contract value. No, I am not that big. [2016-07-15 15:32:48] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah it's an enormous 0.01BTC per dollar price [2016-07-15 15:33:42] BitMEX_Sam : 1000x larger than the XBT series here. [2016-07-15 15:50:50] Rado : blackwhite: I am with you there. Mind blown by the leverage as stop concept. [2016-07-15 15:57:44] Rado : BitMEX_Sam: if I am buying contracts to make money from funding rate and get liquidated, should I just buy again at the lower price or is it better to have enough BTC so my position is not liquidated? [2016-07-15 15:58:42] Rado : example is if I have 5000 ETH long on an exchange and short 5000 contracts here [2016-07-15 15:59:24] Rado : I will need a lot of BTC here to make sure my liquidation price is far away [2016-07-15 16:00:03] Rado : planing to do this when I get my funds from alt coins investment, but need to work out the details [2016-07-15 16:00:11] Rado : let me know when you can [2016-07-15 16:04:10] Rado : get your BTC longs while you can :-) [2016-07-15 16:04:20] BitMEX_Greg : Rado: Keep in mind that when you get liquidated you lose your Maintenance Margin [2016-07-15 16:05:05] BitMEX_Greg : Which for ETH is 1.5% right now. So it can be quite costly if your strategy is to earn the funding [2016-07-15 16:06:29] lockhedge : it's even 1.50% + Exit Commission + Funding Rate [2016-07-15 16:06:50] BitMEX_Greg : I suggest having ample margin to avoid a liquidation. Trying to "game" the liquidation by using it as a stop is about as difficult as guessing where the price is going to go. Since you may get leveraged on your short and then price goes down, so instead of trying to sell at a higher price after liquidation (will need to be at least 1.5% higher for a start), you may actually be paying more if price moves down [2016-07-15 16:07:27] BitMEX_Greg : lockhedge: Thanks [2016-07-15 16:08:57] 1QaZxSw2 : blackwhite: ive traded on coinpit, its pretty good since they reworked it [2016-07-15 16:10:36] 1QaZxSw2 : basically, where i would place orders of multiples of 1000 contracts on bitmex, there i need to place 1 contract [2016-07-15 16:10:56] 1QaZxSw2 : so if you are a small trader who trades less than 1000 contracts at a time, its not for you [2016-07-15 16:12:06] 1QaZxSw2 : unless they create a smaller contract, but i hear they cant do that because all their funds are on chain [2016-07-15 16:12:15] lockhedge : 1QaZxSw2: liquidity does not seem high enough to trade more than 1 contract though [2016-07-15 16:12:23] macios15 : rocket incoming? [2016-07-15 16:13:47] 1QaZxSw2 : lockhedge: ya, but thats like 4000 contracts here. the way i see it, i can make more with the same move on spot there at higher leverage. right now max leverage there is 599x, but i trade around 300x. i make more with smaller moves [2016-07-15 16:14:32] 1QaZxSw2 : im still dipping my toes tho. [2016-07-15 16:14:52] nip : who bought those FCT contracts? [2016-07-15 16:25:16] lockhedge : 1QaZxSw2: how many keys of the MultiSIg wallet does Coinpit hold? [2016-07-15 16:27:11] 1QaZxSw2 : lockhedge: they hold a key and you hold one [2016-07-15 16:27:42] 1QaZxSw2 : when you place a trade or do anything else, you send a tx with your signature, they sign with theirs [2016-07-15 16:29:01] 1QaZxSw2 : you can get a pre-signed tx that gives control to all your coins to recover your coins if they go down [2016-07-15 16:29:13] 1QaZxSw2 : ive asked them to publish a whitepaper [2016-07-15 16:30:51] 1QaZxSw2 : as the bitmex folks said, im waiting to see what happens when there is a big rally or drop [2016-07-15 16:31:12] lockhedge : do they use 2-of-2 or 2-of-3 MultiSig? [2016-07-15 16:31:27] 1QaZxSw2 : 2 of 2 [2016-07-15 16:33:24] lockhedge : so how can they shift money from your wallet to your counterparty's without the second key? [2016-07-15 16:33:37] blackwhite : Rado: Is it really profitable ETHBTC arbitrage? I smell something is hidden [2016-07-15 16:33:44] Rado : BitMEX_Greg: Thanks for the answer. Is there a good way to calculate based on current movements what should be enough to keep so you don't get liquidated [2016-07-15 16:34:15] Rado : blackwhite: is very profitable in here if you don't close and reopen on every 8 hours [2016-07-15 16:34:30] Rado : meaning the funding doesn't flip from positive to negative every 8 hours [2016-07-15 16:35:07] 1QaZxSw2 : lockhedge: i dont really know, ive asked for a whitepaper. but you can see all the tx on a blockexplorer: your deposits, withdrawals, and settlements. everything is transparent on blockchain [2016-07-15 16:36:04] blackwhite : 1QaZxSw2: 599x insane! Why don't they make 5999x then? [2016-07-15 16:37:31] 1QaZxSw2 : blackwhite: mathematically leverage is contract value/margin so it limits how much they can give leverage. [2016-07-15 16:39:39] BitMEX_Greg : Rado: Well how often do you check your account? If in front of you daily, then your risk is overnight moves. Take a look at the daily volatility and use that as a rough guide. Personally I would want to be around 10-15x leverage to be safe, but depends on your risk tolerance [2016-07-15 16:39:41] 1QaZxSw2 : its all about managing risk. from my viewpoint as a trader, i wouldnt trade more than 300x, since i would be taken out on every small move, maybe 599x is for bots [2016-07-15 16:41:38] Rado : thanks BitMEX_Greg [2016-07-15 16:42:37] 1QaZxSw2 : anyway, what i really would like is coinpit with smaller contracts say 1/10 their current contract [2016-07-15 16:43:34] BitMEX_Greg : 1QaZxSw2: What is it that you like about coinpit in the first place? [2016-07-15 16:44:38] 1QaZxSw2 : BitMEX_Greg: not sure i like it yet, its new and im trying it out [2016-07-15 16:45:00] 1QaZxSw2 : most of my trading is still spot [2016-07-15 16:45:29] 1QaZxSw2 : i think their leverage is good for scalping. i like that i dont have to calculate dpe before placing a trade [2016-07-15 16:45:43] 1QaZxSw2 : i think the contract is too large [2016-07-15 16:46:37] 1QaZxSw2 : the other stuff about multisig etc is interesting but as i see it, not much difference to me, since most of my money is in spot [2016-07-15 16:48:56] 1QaZxSw2 : rest of the things are similar to bitmex: perpetual contracts [2016-07-15 16:49:40] 1QaZxSw2 : bitmex has some cool stuff that they dont have: hidden orders, trailing stop [2016-07-15 16:51:17] 1QaZxSw2 : also they seem to be a single contract exchange [2016-07-15 17:06:19] blackwhite : yeah. almost everyone trades 1 contract i believe there ) [2016-07-15 17:08:08] 1QaZxSw2 : blackwhite: lol [2016-07-15 17:15:05] 1QaZxSw2 : try their testnet first [2016-07-15 17:15:16] 1QaZxSw2 : you can trade big there [2016-07-15 17:22:19] Rado : 1QaZxSw2: which exchange is that? [2016-07-15 17:38:27] 1QaZxSw2 : Rado: coinpit [2016-07-15 17:41:41] 1QaZxSw2 : ETH still holding [2016-07-15 17:46:39] Rado : thanks [2016-07-15 17:54:05] 1QaZxSw2 : anyone trade xbj here? whats the approach to deal with usd/jpy risk [2016-07-15 17:55:27] 1QaZxSw2 : as i see it, xbt/cny would be more useful, we can pretend we are trading on okc [2016-07-15 17:56:27] Rado : 1QaZxSw2: why do you care if you are making BTC? [2016-07-15 17:57:57] 1QaZxSw2 : well, im guessing everyone is watching china charts since thats 80% spot volume [2016-07-15 17:58:24] 1QaZxSw2 : when you watch china and trade usd, sometimes things are slightly off with the charting [2016-07-15 17:59:00] 1QaZxSw2 : its ok, i can watch finex chart and trade usd, but finex is small compared to the chinese heavyweights [2016-07-15 17:59:02] Rado : that hasn't affected me at all on my stops or entries [2016-07-15 17:59:50] 1QaZxSw2 : maybe you are right [2016-07-15 18:00:36] justinlooking : i find the megabots on chinese exchanges very intimidating [2016-07-15 18:01:06] 1QaZxSw2 : justinlooking: which is why it would be nice to trade xbt/cny here [2016-07-15 18:01:42] justinlooking : ^ also there's the whole trust thing! [2016-07-15 18:02:56] 1QaZxSw2 : do all chinese exchanges offer futures or just okc? [2016-07-15 18:13:19] rullwull : huobi also has futures, BTCC offers 20x leverage, but its not futures [2016-07-15 18:14:22] 1QaZxSw2 : 20x leverage on spot is like 25x here on swap i guess [2016-07-15 18:14:39] rullwull : its not spot [2016-07-15 18:15:15] 1QaZxSw2 : not spot, not futures, what is it? [2016-07-15 18:15:18] rullwull : they have pro trade service with 20x, its more like perpetual swap [2016-07-15 18:15:35] 1QaZxSw2 : looks like perpetual is where industry is going [2016-07-15 18:15:42] rullwull : they don't call it swap or futures [2016-07-15 18:16:11] 1QaZxSw2 : right that would avoid regulatory headache [2016-07-15 18:16:55] 1QaZxSw2 : i wonder if swap is regulated in usa. bitmex should offer it to americans [2016-07-15 18:17:15] rullwull : maybe, cause its in CNY and hosted in china, okc and huobi futures are hosted in HK [2016-07-15 18:18:49] rullwull : bmx doesn't allow to trade us users [2016-07-15 18:19:38] 1QaZxSw2 : rullwull: i know, but if swap is unregulated, they can? [2016-07-15 18:20:22] 1QaZxSw2 : they would double their volume in a few weeks [2016-07-15 18:22:50] 1QaZxSw2 : looks like they regulated swaps after 2008 crash [2016-07-15 18:24:15] rullwull : I'm sure if bmx could they offer it us [2016-07-15 20:18:09] men : coup d'etat in turkey..
