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.

[2016-08-01 12:44:39] esuvari : how long does it take the profit in your wallet? [2016-08-01 12:44:58] esuvari : do you wait Friday? or do you have it by 15:00 like the perpetual contracts? [2016-08-01 12:45:59] johndoe : not sure. i'd guess that it would be daily, but i don't know [2016-08-01 12:49:42] BitMEX_Wally : We unlock 50% of your realised profit at the end of each 8 hour session, and then unlock 100% on Friday when the contract settles [2016-08-01 12:51:47] esuvari : ok thanks [2016-08-01 12:59:27] ayy_lmao : 8hr based on traditional funding times right?

Partially selling to decrease leverage? [2016-08-01 14:03:42] BitMEX_Wally : It means that if the is a liquidation order that is unfilled, then instead of DPE we reduce positions that are in profit to close out the liquidation order [2016-08-01 14:04:19] rapidtrades : do the guys who have their orders closed get stuck with the DPE [2016-08-01 14:04:28] BitMEX_Wally : Deleveraging is instead of DPE [2016-08-01 14:04:40] bitbucks : Etc isn't going away soon [2016-08-01 14:05:03] BitMEX_Wally : So rather than adjusting profits, we close profitable positions [2016-08-01 14:05:34] ayy_lmao : into the order right? [2016-08-01 14:05:44] BitMEX_Wally : Yes [2016-08-01 14:13:10] REKT : Liquidated short on `ETC7D`: Buy 6363 @ 0.003566 [2016-08-01 14:19:14] justinlooking : how would you choose which positions to close?

[2016-08-01 14:22:21] BitMEX_Sam : And we'll display on the dashboard which quintile your position is in, so you can make the decision to lower your leverage to move to a lower priority [2016-08-01 14:22:25] BitMEX_Sam : YM: Which contract?

[2016-08-01 14:43:50] BitMEX_Sam : Liquidity on the market - we use something we call Impact pricing that's detailed here: https://www.bitmex.com/app/fairPriceMarking#weighted-bid-ask-and-mid-price [2016-08-01 14:43:56] BitMEX_Sam : it's built to resist manipulation [2016-08-01 14:45:20] esuvari : I cannot rationalize 170 pips difference [2016-08-01 14:46:23] BitMEX_Sam : The market is not always rational [2016-08-01 14:46:31] BitMEX_Sam : The calculation is clear to see. [2016-08-01 14:46:38] BitMEX_Wally : The bid price is 0.003603 [2016-08-01 14:46:42] BitMEX_Wally : So if you think that's too high, sell into it :) [2016-08-01 14:46:51] haxmb : The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent [2016-08-01 14:46:56] haxmb : ^_^ [2016-08-01 14:48:22] esuvari : nope, I'm talking about the difference between the market price and bitmex "fair" price [2016-08-01 14:48:41] justinlooking : esuvari: mark price is not market price [2016-08-01 14:48:49] BitMEX_Wally : The fair price is adjusted to match where the ETC7D market price is [2016-08-01 14:49:10] haxmb : BitMEX_Wally: any plans to turn ETC7D into a continuous swap? [2016-08-01 14:49:30] BitMEX_Wally : haxmb: Yes, if Poloniex enable margin trading [2016-08-01 14:49:33] haxmb : 4x the ETHBTC volume [2016-08-01 14:49:38] haxmb : ah cool [2016-08-01 14:49:45] haxmb : can't use bitfinex FRR?
