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.

[2016-08-23 22:28:43] I-am-Legend : cant find predicted funding greg looking for it
[2016-08-23 22:28:59] BitMEX_Greg : I-am-Legend: Press the "Trade" tab
[2016-08-23 22:29:23] BitMEX_Greg : Then on the left hand side where the order controls are, down the bottom you will see "Contract Details ETHXBT"
[2016-08-23 22:29:25] I-am-Legend : yeah ?
[2016-08-23 22:29:34] I-am-Legend : ok
[2016-08-23 22:30:03] BitMEX_Greg : Then underneath you will see terms such as Pricing Source, 24H Volume, Open Value and Funding
[2016-08-23 22:30:09] BitMEX_Greg : hover your mouse over "Funding"
[2016-08-23 22:31:21] I-am-Legend : its saying funding 0.586% in 5 hours + predicted funding 0.4%
[2016-08-23 22:31:25] I-am-Legend : ??
[2016-08-23 22:31:58] I-am-Legend : so on funding will get 0.58?
[2016-08-23 22:32:36] I-am-Legend : 0.4 is not in 5 hours but the one after right? just guessing
[2016-08-23 22:33:05] BitMEX_Greg : Yes my apologies, the rate is 0.5867% in 5 hours which is fixed
[2016-08-23 22:33:19] BitMEX_Greg : The predicted funding is an anticipated funding given how the market is moving in the current 8 hour period now
[2016-08-23 22:33:41] I-am-Legend : so current funding fixed
[2016-08-23 22:33:47] BitMEX_Greg : That's correct
[2016-08-23 22:34:23] I-am-Legend : so predicted is for the one after, next 0.58 one after 0.4 predicted ?
[2016-08-23 22:34:24] BitMEX_Greg : But be aware of where the market is trading now, if everyone is trying to sell to take advantage of the high funding levels then the market may be trading at a discount
[2016-08-23 22:34:35] BitMEX_Greg : Predicted is 0.4% but it is dropping
[2016-08-23 22:35:54] I-am-Legend : i see but in 5 hours its fixed at 0.58 so the 0.4 predicted is 11 hours from now ?
[2016-08-23 22:36:43] BitMEX_Greg : It will be 0.5867% in 5 hours, and then predicted 0.4% in 5 + 8 hours
[2016-08-23 22:37:47] BitMEX_Greg : Funding periods occur every 8 hours
[2016-08-23 22:38:20] I-am-Legend : got it thanks getting to understand the site now
[2016-08-23 22:38:41] I-am-Legend : better to get rekt knowing what your doing
[2016-08-23 22:38:47] BitMEX_Greg : No worries, we are going to have some clearer guides on the site soon. In the meantime just @ buzz me if you need anything more clarifying
[2016-08-23 22:38:52] BitMEX_Greg : haha agree
[2016-08-23 22:38:58] I-am-Legend : hehe
[2016-08-23 22:39:19] I-am-Legend : one more thing if i close now i still pay or get funding in 5 hours ?
[2016-08-23 22:40:04] BitMEX_Greg : If you close then you won't get any funding. You need to hold the position at the funding time (in 5 hours) if you want to receive the funding.
[2016-08-23 22:40:17] BitMEX_Greg : Rather, you won't pay funding if you close now*
[2016-08-23 22:40:55] I-am-Legend : ok so if i open a position 1 min before funding
[2016-08-23 22:41:01] BitMEX_Greg : That's right
[2016-08-23 22:41:04] I-am-Legend : i still pay or get the rebate ?
[2016-08-23 22:41:09] BitMEX_Greg : Just pay attention to where the market is trading however
[2016-08-23 22:41:11] BitMEX_Greg : Yes
[2016-08-23 22:41:24] BitMEX_Greg : But it's not referred to rebate, but funding*
[2016-08-23 22:41:47] I-am-Legend : so at 0.5 % someone can open 1k contracts 1 min before in a short & get interest ?
[2016-08-23 22:42:03] ayy_lmao : ive always wondered how that works
[2016-08-23 22:42:09] ayy_lmao : it cant be that easy right
[2016-08-23 22:42:23] I-am-Legend : seems it is ?
[2016-08-23 22:42:51] BitMEX_Greg : Yes, but the market may be 0.5% trading under the Mark Price, so if you try to short to receive 0.5% worth of funding, then you will be paying 0.5% on the market
[2016-08-23 22:45:36] I-am-Legend : so longs will want to close before next round of funding not to pay the 0.5% right..
[2016-08-23 22:47:23] BitMEX_Greg : Yeah that's what may push the price down
[2016-08-23 22:47:35] I-am-Legend : im short eth now. who is paying me the 0.5% when its time for funding ? i dont get where thats coming from if longs try to get before the funding
[2016-08-23 22:48:32] I-am-Legend : so longs push price down & people trying to get 0.5 % at funding ? that would mean great time to close your short ?
[2016-08-23 22:48:48] I-am-Legend : but then u lose the 0.5% closing before the funding ?
[2016-08-23 22:49:40] BitMEX_Greg : I-am-Legend: The market is zero-sum, meaning that for every 1 short there is 1 long.
[2016-08-23 22:49:46] I-am-Legend : who made this system so complex.. cant fomo in cause u have to think so much before u open a trade lol
[2016-08-23 22:50:16] ayy_lmao : lol so true
[2016-08-23 22:51:05] BitMEX_Greg : I-am-Legend: We are working on making it slightly less complicated to understand for new users.
[2016-08-23 22:51:07] I-am-Legend : so current mark is 1906 but index is 1899.. means trading over the real price avg
[2016-08-23 22:51:24] BitMEX_Greg : The difficulty lies in the fact that the swap is a perpetual product, rather than a fixed expiry future
[2016-08-23 22:51:34] I-am-Legend : yeah i lost 6 btc first week cause i didnt know what i was doing rekt
[2016-08-23 22:51:45] BitMEX_Greg : So the market is currently trading UNDER the Mark Price (i.e. a discount).
[2016-08-23 22:51:46] I-am-Legend : i didnt leave stayed on to learn
[2016-08-23 22:52:02] I-am-Legend : ohh i see yeah
[2016-08-23 22:52:12] I-am-Legend : its even tradinf under the real price
[2016-08-23 22:52:15] BitMEX_Greg : I'm glad you stayed on, we're always here to help users understand how it works
[2016-08-23 22:52:17] I-am-Legend : why ?
[2016-08-23 22:52:26] BitMEX_Greg : I presume because of the funding reason
[2016-08-23 22:52:37] I-am-Legend : i see & longs wanting out
[2016-08-23 22:52:45] BitMEX_Greg : Most likely longs are trying to exit, or people are putting on new shorts to take advantage of the funding
[2016-08-23 22:52:55] I-am-Legend : i dont think its 0.5% not even near it right
[2016-08-23 22:53:03] I-am-Legend : 10 ticks
[2016-08-23 22:53:37] I-am-Legend : ohh its about 0.5% just did it in my head
[2016-08-23 22:54:02] I-am-Legend : so if ur short u sort of do get ur 0.5 by closing now lol
[2016-08-23 22:55:05] BitMEX_Greg : Yeah mid is 0.01874ish (for 1500 contracts), and mark is 0.01899. So the discount is 0.01874/0.01899-1 = 1.3% discount
[2016-08-23 22:55:19] I-am-Legend : greg my curent unrealised pnl, thats based on which price. we got the order book + index + mark?
[2016-08-23 22:55:44] BitMEX_Greg : Mark Price
[2016-08-23 22:56:10] I-am-Legend : i see i dont really get what the mark price is
[2016-08-23 22:56:20] I-am-Legend : i get the orderbook & i get index is polo price
[2016-08-23 22:56:38] BitMEX_Greg : The Mark Price is the price that positions (and unrealised PnL and liquidations) are marked against.
[2016-08-23 22:56:59] BitMEX_Greg : Usually the Mark Price is the Index Price, but sometimes it can deviate if the market is trading at a premium or discount
[2016-08-23 22:57:29] I-am-Legend : so market is at discount now how come mark price is higher
[2016-08-23 22:57:32] I-am-Legend : should be lower
[2016-08-23 22:57:50] I-am-Legend : makr price even higher than index
[2016-08-23 22:57:58] I-am-Legend : but book price way lower.
[2016-08-23 22:58:08] I-am-Legend : only god will understand that
[2016-08-23 22:58:47] BitMEX_Greg : Take a read over https://www.bitmex.com/app/fairPriceMarking
[2016-08-23 22:59:15] BitMEX_Greg : It shows you why the Mark Price may not trade in line with where the market is trading on BitMEX. We do it this way to prevent market manipulation
[2016-08-23 22:59:29] I-am-Legend : ok got two to read now.. greg when we are settled at rebalance that will be mark price not index right ?
[2016-08-23 23:00:24] I-am-Legend : yeah i get cause those people trying to sell to milk the 0.58% will be at a loss due to high mark price
[2016-08-23 23:00:27] BitMEX_Greg : Correct, you will be rebalanced at Mark Price
[2016-08-23 23:01:24] I-am-Legend : so it means just after funding price will bounce as people get their interest
[2016-08-23 23:01:31] BitMEX_Greg : Although note that it doesn't affect your PnL. It is only use
[2016-08-23 23:01:48] BitMEX_Greg : used* to determine Unrealised PnL and points for liquidation
[2016-08-23 23:03:35] I-am-Legend : but at settlement u use the mark price to make realized pnl so it does affect your pnl at time of re-balance
[2016-08-23 23:03:57] BitMEX_Greg : Well at settlement we use the Settlement Price
[2016-08-23 23:05:05] BitMEX_Greg : For perpetual contracts that do not have a settlement, then your Realised PnL is only affected from your entry / exit, trading fees and any funding paid or received
[2016-08-23 23:05:32] BitMEX_Greg : be back soon, just grabbing a bite
[2016-08-23 23:06:01] I-am-Legend : ok cheers dude see u in a bit let me know when you back .. there plenty of people learning from this convo
[2016-08-23 23:06:13] I-am-Legend : not only me lol see u after lunch
[2016-08-23 23:28:08] BitMEX_Greg : I-am-Legend: Great to hear it, let me know if you have other questions

[2016-08-24 00:59:51] BitMEX_Wally : `format c: /q`
[2016-08-24 01:37:32] REKT : Liquidated long on `XMR7D`: Sell 24 @ 0.007854
[2016-08-24 01:50:05] Rado : actually I think we should have education channel
[2016-08-24 01:50:31] Rado : so we don't fill the chat with only this stuff
[2016-08-24 01:55:38] mjones : so next XMR move up and above 0.009 to 0.02
[2016-08-24 01:56:06] mjones : not sure why someone would want so many XMR coins so we'll see
[2016-08-24 02:35:45] Rado : mjones: I don't think it's going to 0.02 anytime soon
[2016-08-24 02:43:45] Rado : Enabling BFX tokens as collateral for financing is an irreversible feature. Once enabled, this setting cannot be disable.
[2016-08-24 02:44:07] Rado : Another way to try and get more BFX coins liquidated
[2016-08-24 06:31:06] REKT : Liquidated short on `XMR7D`: Buy 100 @ 0.008422
[2016-08-24 06:39:06] REKT : Liquidated short on `XMR7D`: Buy 500 @ 0.008685
[2016-08-24 09:15:43] Ultrahoschie : wher comes the mark price for xbtusd?
[2016-08-24 09:25:42] Ultrahoschie : how fair is it ... markprice 578 .... marketprice 581 ....
[2016-08-24 09:32:21] BitMEX_Jinming : Ultrahoschie: for details `https://www.bitmex.com/app/fairPriceMarking`
[2016-08-24 09:34:25] BitMEX_Jinming : Ultrahoschie: Basically it's underlying price (50% okc + 50% bitstamp) plus funding basis
[2016-08-24 09:44:21] Ultrahoschie : ok ... but my buy entryprice is not based on markprice ....
[2016-08-24 09:44:33] Ultrahoschie : marketprice
[2016-08-24 09:49:49] BitMEX_Jinming : Ultrahoschie: yes, the entry price depends on our market, however unrealised pnl is marked using `mark price`
[2016-08-24 10:18:44] Ultrahoschie : ok but why the pnl is use markprice when the enter and closed price using market prices .... the markprice ... everytime behind ... i lose every time ...
[2016-08-24 10:28:54] Ultrahoschie : you can mut mixed to differnet prices or you must say ... i open an oder @marketprice 579 (markprice at this time is 577) .... i close the order @marketprice 580 (markprice = 578) .... market-market = 1$ gain .... mark-mark = 1$ gain .... but you use market-mark .... (578-579) = 1$ lose ... and this is not correct ...
[2016-08-24 11:03:51] REKT : Liquidated long on `XMR7D`: Sell 9 @ 0.008118
[2016-08-24 11:05:21] BitMEX_Jinming : Ultrahoschie: the realised Pnl is based on the actual prices you trade in and out. The unrealised Pnl is based on mark price so it's less likely to be manipulated.
[2016-08-24 11:08:19] Ultrahoschie : ahhh ... ok
[2016-08-24 12:31:07] REKT : Liquidated long on `ETC7D`: Sell 450 @ 0.002634

[2016-08-24 14:57:25] rapidtrades : good day fellas
[2016-08-24 15:03:32] rapidtrades : any news on the bitfinex situation?
[2016-08-24 15:10:25] laisee : BFX shares are up on +ve earnings report
[2016-08-24 15:11:08] Martinos : +veearnings?
[2016-08-24 15:13:14] laisee : positive earnings from their trading activities
[2016-08-24 15:13:57] Martinos : oh
[2016-08-24 15:14:32] Martinos : and btc still down
[2016-08-24 15:15:09] laisee : srsly, BFX seems to be going up by the day
[2016-08-24 15:17:27] rapidtrades : i suspect bitfinex is using bitcoins to buy the tokens
[2016-08-24 15:21:46] rapidtrades : sounds crazy cos they should have way more extra USD..but the correlation is there
[2016-08-24 15:21:57] CaptainDean : What is the next resistance ?
[2016-08-24 15:22:02] CaptainDean : for BTC
[2016-08-24 15:22:40] pigeons : but but..they said they wouldnt do that because ethics!
[2016-08-24 15:23:27] BitMEX_Sam : Trust us.
[2016-08-24 15:23:38] rapidtrades : Bitfinex wouldn't know what's ethics if it hit them in the ass
[2016-08-24 15:25:02] pigeons : but but they started by liberating code from a scammer bucketshop!
[2016-08-24 15:25:11] Rado : maybe Bitfinex itself is not buying the coins
[2016-08-24 15:25:18] Rado : maybe an investor is buying them
[2016-08-24 15:25:39] Rado : you buy the coins from 0.30 to 0.50 USD
[2016-08-24 15:26:01] Rado : then go to Bitfinex and say I will get a stake in the company for $1 per BFX
[2016-08-24 15:26:28] Rado : make 60% profit
[2016-08-24 15:26:47] CaptainDean : fuck bitfinex
[2016-08-24 15:26:48] rapidtrades : that would be one stupid investor
[2016-08-24 15:26:55] BitMEX_Greg : Why wouldn't Bitfinex be buying them back?
[2016-08-24 15:27:10] rapidtrades : because they said they won't :)
[2016-08-24 15:27:22] Rado : BitMEX_Greg: can they legally?
[2016-08-24 15:28:05] BitMEX_Greg : Can they legally issue BFX tokens? Can they legally impose a haircut of 36% on all accounts?
[2016-08-24 15:28:17] Rado : fair
[2016-08-24 15:28:27] Rado : what will be the reason for them buying them?
[2016-08-24 15:28:46] CaptainDean : I repeat, fuck Bitfinex :P
[2016-08-24 15:29:09] Rado : There can be only two reasons: Return the BTC to holders of BFX (not likely) 2. Profit from them buy selling them higher
[2016-08-24 15:29:39] BitMEX_Greg : They would buy them back if they truly believe they will survive and the BFX tokens will make its way to a value of 1
[2016-08-24 15:30:24] Rado : but the only way to get out of the BFX is exchange them back for BTC or USD
[2016-08-24 15:30:26] Rado : for all holders
[2016-08-24 15:30:45] BitMEX_Greg : It's like a company buying its shares back on an exchange. If the shares dump to some crazy price, but the board believes they are cheap, then they will buy them back
[2016-08-24 15:31:02] BitMEX_Greg : Unless they redeem all the holders back
[2016-08-24 15:31:37] BitMEX_Greg : They could just one day announce that they had an angel investor give them $70m and they will be repaying all BFX token holders $1 or $1 worth of BTC
[2016-08-24 15:31:50] Rado : Right
[2016-08-24 15:32:01] Rado : that will be positive for them
[2016-08-24 15:32:06] Rado : maybe that is the end game
[2016-08-24 15:32:17] BitMEX_Greg : Yeah, but I dont know what type of investor would do that
[2016-08-24 15:32:29] BitMEX_Greg : They would have to have a lot of confidence in Bitfinex's survival
[2016-08-24 15:32:29] Rado : A shady one
[2016-08-24 15:32:30] Rado : :-)
[2016-08-24 15:32:34] Rado : that will get a cut
[2016-08-24 15:32:49] rapidtrades : u got that right Rado
[2016-08-24 15:32:54] Rado : on paper they invest $70 mill, but in reality they only invested 50
[2016-08-24 15:33:11] Rado : or something like that
[2016-08-24 15:33:15] BitMEX_Greg : Yeah, still a risk for the investor
[2016-08-24 15:33:22] rapidtrades : i hope they find an investor, will make suing them easier
[2016-08-24 15:33:27] BitMEX_Greg : haha
[2016-08-24 15:33:45] Rado : BitMEX_Greg: isn't everything risky in crypto space
[2016-08-24 15:34:03] Rado : even investing in BitMEX is ricky
[2016-08-24 15:34:08] Rado : although I will do it :-)
[2016-08-24 15:34:15] Rado : risky
[2016-08-24 15:34:30] BitMEX_Greg : haha yeah, new technologies, a lot of uncertainty
[2016-08-24 15:34:31] Rado : when are you issuing BMX token?
[2016-08-24 15:34:52] rapidtrades : they only risk in suing them now is it will likely force them into bankruptcy
[2016-08-24 15:35:11] BitMEX_Greg : Haha not sure we would do that
[2016-08-24 15:35:14] rapidtrades : so u end up getting the same slice as everyone but u payed for some legal costs
[2016-08-24 15:35:32] BitMEX_Greg : That's why people are joining the class-action right?
[2016-08-24 15:35:40] BitMEX_Greg : share the legal costs
[2016-08-24 15:36:13] BitMEX_Greg : Bitfinex is doing a good job of spreading FUD around being sued
[2016-08-24 15:36:44] rapidtrades : yeah it's too diffused right now...we have few ppl here that are intrerested, few on reddit...then there's that guy with the shady website
[2016-08-24 15:36:52] rapidtrades : everyone is doing their own thing right now
[2016-08-24 15:37:13] BitMEX_Greg : I am sure a lot of users want to, but after their statements saying "hey guys, we actually have your interests as a priority thats why we opened without really understanding our attack vector, by the way here's a BFX token for your troubles"
[2016-08-24 15:37:43] BitMEX_Greg : I think people are scared given what happened with MtGox
[2016-08-24 15:38:13] rapidtrades : https://news.bitcoin.com/heres-bitfinex-not-like-mtgox/
[2016-08-24 15:39:51] rapidtrades : my opinion is everyone trying to get a piece fast cos they expect them to go bankrupt soon...waiting for that lawsuit could take months/years
[2016-08-24 15:40:18] Rado : shorting the BFX token might be a good bet here
[2016-08-24 15:40:40] rapidtrades : if they survive few more weeks u will see a more organized effort to join any lawsuits
[2016-08-24 15:41:08] BitMEX_Greg : interesting
[2016-08-24 15:42:13] rapidtrades : if u sold ur tokens and withdrawn everything, there is no reason not to join any lawsuits
[2016-08-24 15:44:04] Rado : rapidtrades: what is the difference by a person that lost money and holding BFX tokens and someone that did not lose anything but bought BFX tokens
[2016-08-24 15:44:12] Rado : Do they have the same rights holding the tokens
[2016-08-24 15:45:25] rapidtrades : tokens holders will prolly be at the back of the line in any liquidation
[2016-08-24 15:45:54] rapidtrades : just my opinion, not legal advice :)
[2016-08-24 15:46:35] Rado : usually in a bankruptcy john doe does not get anything
[2016-08-24 15:46:41] Rado : accountants make sure of that
[2016-08-24 15:46:53] BitMEX_Greg : Yeah that's an interesting question. As some people will have already sold their tokens and realised a loss of 20% on par
[2016-08-24 15:48:00] rapidtrades : i lost bit more then that due to having to buy BTC at premium
[2016-08-24 15:49:06] rapidtrades : the tokens are not a legal debt instrument and right now there's only the promise of shares
[2016-08-24 15:49:25] rapidtrades : so as things stand now, they may not even be counted as a claim
[2016-08-24 15:49:45] rapidtrades : again just imo, haven't consulted a lawyer
[2016-08-24 15:50:09] BitMEX_Greg : You should think strongly about the class action then
[2016-08-24 15:50:44] rapidtrades : yeah i've sent a few emails...let's see what i get back
[2016-08-24 15:51:30] BitMEX_Greg : Good luck
[2016-08-24 15:53:20] Rado : If I sell my BFX at 0.00078
[2016-08-24 15:53:31] Rado : My total loss will be only a bit over 3 BTC

[2016-08-24 23:10:35] dh2 : Lesson learned - use 2FA :)
[2016-08-24 23:10:51] BitMEX_Sam : dh2: Thanks. Strangely enough, I don't see any support ticket from you.
[2016-08-24 23:14:41] dh2 : Hi. I believe I had to use another email address as a I was locked out of mine. I was migrating from a Windows PC to an Apple PC - where some files 'corrupted' slightly. Now I'm back :)

[2016-08-25 23:31:32] tb : I don't want to have to open a new position and pay the spread again
[2016-08-25 23:34:37] BitMEX_Greg : tb: We don't have a roll contract unfortunately. You can try asking trader's here who may be on the opposite side to trade with you in the market
[2016-08-25 23:42:55] tb : even something like an opening auction for the new contract with prices quoted +/- index or nav would be good too
[2016-08-25 23:44:37] ayy_lmao : the would have spread too?
[2016-08-25 23:49:08] ayy_lmao : that
[2016-08-25 23:49:20] tb : no
[2016-08-25 23:49:47] tb : it's an auction, so everyone bids in price below/above settlement/open
[2016-08-25 23:50:09] tb : the book can be crossed
[2016-08-25 23:50:21] ayy_lmao : lol
[2016-08-25 23:50:25] ayy_lmao : insta liquidations
[2016-08-25 23:51:08] tb : no
[2016-08-25 23:51:41] tb : because it'll most likely trade very close to the old contract's settlement price/new contract's opening price
[2016-08-25 23:53:58] tb : @BitMEX_Greg is this something you guys can add at some point?
[2016-08-25 23:54:53] tb : like if i were to marketmake i would need a way to hedge rebalance charm
[2016-08-25 23:55:16] tb : err settlement
[2016-08-25 23:56:11] BitMEX_Greg : tb: Unlikely we will add a roll contract for the BFX contract. We may look at changing it over to the perpetual swap style later if it still exists and trades well
[2016-08-26 00:02:26] HackedOnBFX : BitMEX_Sam: i meant, is something on the site down
[2016-08-26 00:13:10] BitMEX_Greg : HackedOnBFX: I don't see any outages on our end.
[2016-08-26 00:59:07] Rado : tb: fees are so small
[2016-08-26 00:59:21] Rado : you even get paid if you put a limit order
[2016-08-26 00:59:51] Rado : sell in the middle between bid and ask
[2016-08-26 01:11:42] Rado : XMR target hit now
[2016-08-26 01:28:01] Rado : STEEM looks oversold and should also get a bounce
[2016-08-26 01:28:47] Rado : Some positive divergences
[2016-08-26 02:23:25] Rado : ETH in stealth rally
[2016-08-26 02:42:51] REKT : Liquidated short on `XMR7D`: Buy 65 @ 0.007652
[2016-08-26 05:01:52] REKT : Liquidated long on `ETHXBT`: Sell 9 @ 0.01960
[2016-08-26 05:02:18] BitMEX_Wally : `BFXU16` has been listed: https://www.bitmex.com/app/trade/BFXU16
[2016-08-26 05:24:44] rapidtrades : BitMEX_Wally: mark on sept is way above bi/asks
[2016-08-26 05:25:01] micmix : BitMEX_Wally: very nice! have you made any decision about XBTZ16 or other long-term quantos?
[2016-08-26 06:15:40] rapidtrades : yeah we want a new quanto
[2016-08-26 06:18:37] Kalman : BitMEX_Wally: Do you also disconnect trading bots after 24 h?
[2016-08-26 06:18:49] Kalman : BitMEX_Wally: Hi
[2016-08-26 07:22:12] martyix : Can anyone explain to me results of https://testnet.bitmex.com/api/v1/user/wallet?currency=XBt ?
[2016-08-26 07:22:18] martyix : What exactly is the value "amount"? What is "deltaAmount"?
[2016-08-26 07:29:56] BitMEX_Wally : martyix: `amount` is the net total of all wallet transactions (not including pending rebalances)
[2016-08-26 07:30:12] BitMEX_Wally : `walletBalance = (amount - pendingDebit) + realisedPnl`
[2016-08-26 07:30:54] martyix : thank you!
[2016-08-26 07:31:45] BitMEX_Wally : Kalman: We don't disconnect trading bots, but access tokens expire after 24 hours, so I recommend you request an API key
[2016-08-26 07:34:42] Kalman : BitMEX_Wally: Done so. How can one refresh the access token while beeing connected?
[2016-08-26 07:35:22] BitMEX_Wally : https://www.bitmex.com/app/restAPI#authentication
[2016-08-26 07:35:31] BitMEX_Wally : `Access tokens are valid for 24hrs. After that time, you must request another. Simply POST to /user/login`
[2016-08-26 07:37:03] Kalman : BitMEX_Wally: Sorry beeing imprecise, the script is connected via API key, this access token doesnt expire?
[2016-08-26 07:37:33] BitMEX_Wally : access tokens are different from API keys
[2016-08-26 07:38:29] BitMEX_Wally : API keys do not expire, but each message has to be signed with the secret
[2016-08-26 07:38:32] BitMEX_Wally : https://www.bitmex.com/app/apiKeysUsage
[2016-08-26 07:41:38] BitMEX_Wally : If you have a WebSocket connection then occasionally the connection maybe dropped when we roll updates to the servers, but you can always reconnect
[2016-08-26 07:42:34] Kalman : BitMEX_Wally: did you last night have an updated etc. ?
[2016-08-26 07:43:54] BitMEX_Wally : There was a restart at Aug 25 19:43:28 UTC
[2016-08-26 07:48:45] Kalman : BitMEX_Wally: my local time was 22:17 ... so it should be this morning HK time
[2016-08-26 07:57:29] Kalman : BitMEX_Wally: anyway, will get around this. Thx
[2016-08-26 08:37:05] billyboy402 : BitMEX_Wally: hey mate , when the XBTU16 finish does it get settle on the index price or the mark price ?
[2016-08-26 08:38:59] rapidtrades : index
[2016-08-26 11:50:17] REKT : Liquidated short on `ETC7D`: Buy 5200 @ 0.002449
[2016-08-26 11:51:38] subjective : BitMEX_Wally: why is mark price of ETC lower than polo it is 0.00253 already
[2016-08-26 11:52:17] REKT : Liquidated short on `ETC7D`: Buy 1100 @ 0.002455
[2016-08-26 11:53:42] sleger : subjective: TWAP ?
[2016-08-26 11:55:13] subjective : Ok
[2016-08-26 12:01:22] subjective : That is a pretty big diff on the settlement price, sign...
[2016-08-26 12:01:39] sleger : yes the calculation is clearly bugged
[2016-08-26 12:02:33] subjective : 0.002479 vs 0.00257 big diff there
[2016-08-26 12:03:14] BitMEX_Wally : The mark price is based off the indicative settlement price which is the cumulative 30 minute TWAP before settlement
[2016-08-26 12:03:47] subjective : Was that a settlement pump, because Bitmex is the only place to leaverage ETC at the moment
[2016-08-26 12:04:37] BitMEX_Wally : Open interest here was only 150 Bitcoin so unlikely
[2016-08-26 12:11:22] REKT : Liquidated long on `ETHXBT`: Sell 60 @ 0.01944
[2016-08-26 12:43:31] rapidtrades : sleger: still holding them tokens?
[2016-08-26 12:43:47] sleger : BitMEX_Wally: you should make the twap for weekly more than 30 min
[2016-08-26 12:44:04] sleger : rapidtrades: yes, not touching those
[2016-08-26 12:53:19] rapidtrades : sleger: they're only good if u want to bargain....has bitfinex been receptive?
[2016-08-26 12:54:46] sleger : not much, i think they are trying to save time to delay anything else and to try and raise money
[2016-08-26 12:55:25] sleger : if they succeed and reimburse customer losses with it, that's work with me, and im sure there are lot of people stupid enough to invest in that business
[2016-08-26 12:57:16] rapidtrades : i don't see how they can stay in business...there are so many potential avenues for suing
[2016-08-26 12:58:19] rapidtrades : not just on individual but on regulatory level as well
[2016-08-26 12:58:32] rapidtrades : they're bound to get slapped hard by the CFTC for example
[2016-08-26 13:00:57] sleger : these usually only put fines that can be absorbed by the business revenues
[2016-08-26 13:04:48] rapidtrades : i wouldn't be so sure in this case
[2016-08-26 13:05:01] rapidtrades : if this was in america, they would shut them down for sure
[2016-08-26 13:41:45] Rado : damn I missed the short on XMR
[2016-08-26 13:43:24] Rado : went all the way to 0.08
[2016-08-26 13:49:46] Rado : I think FCT might go down to test 0.0035 - 0.004 area
[2016-08-26 13:49:51] Rado : should be a nice short here
[2016-08-26 14:13:41] Rado : hard to trade FCT here now as there is no volume
[2016-08-26 14:13:57] Rado : I guess only works once the underling starts moving
[2016-08-26 14:20:28] Rado : actually this alt coins are really easy to trade on 15 min chart
[2016-08-26 14:21:07] Rado : they seem to follow the TA patterns
[2016-08-26 14:21:36] Rado : crypto space still not manipulated like wall street I guess
[2016-08-26 14:21:55] Rado : 411 users in here?
[2016-08-26 14:22:19] Rado : not a soul posting
[2016-08-26 14:23:04] muirtastic : So was BFX delisted on here? I don't see any bids or asks
[2016-08-26 14:24:06] arbitrage001 : sleger: any reason why investing in bitfinex is stupid? token holder better off holding it till they redeem at 1 dollar?
[2016-08-26 14:24:24] muirtastic : why do you think they will ever redeem at $1?
[2016-08-26 14:24:29] muirtastic : They need $72 million to do that
[2016-08-26 14:24:53] sleger : their plan is to raise money on the bnk platform and repay their debts
[2016-08-26 14:25:14] Rado : muirtastic: it's the new contract
[2016-08-26 14:25:28] sleger : if they succeed it will be good for customers, but i doubt it will be good for people investing in that
[2016-08-26 14:25:30] muirtastic : unlikely they will raise $72 million or anywhere remotely close to that.
[2016-08-26 14:25:48] muirtastic : There's still a good chance some lawsuits will take them out but time will tell
[2016-08-26 14:25:51] arbitrage001 : sleger: pretty much depend on valuation, isnt it?
[2016-08-26 14:26:17] Rado : arbitrage001: exactly, what is the current valuation
[2016-08-26 14:26:34] Rado : are there any revenue figures out there?
[2016-08-26 14:26:36] Rado : let me check
