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.

It might have been filled [2016-09-29 19:18:04] BitMEX_Greg : Rizky: On the trade page (https://www.bitmex.com/app/trade/ZECZ16), on the lower left side under "contract details" you will see the current price and an "i 78.32%" that is the current DPE number [2016-09-29 19:18:13] BitMEX_Greg : It is also shown at the top of the orderbook [2016-09-29 19:18:52] Rizky : ahh [2016-09-29 19:18:55] Rizky : thanks G [2016-09-29 19:20:33] Rizky : that resets when? [2016-09-29 19:21:10] habibi : so basically every long now is fucked up probally for long time [2016-09-29 19:22:16] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: it got filled, my apologies [2016-09-29 19:22:28] habibi : on that dump u mentioned [2016-09-29 19:24:31] zanza : 79% DPE wtf? [2016-09-29 19:25:41] zanza : `[{"orderID":"5232f3ba-4333-bae0-c264-bf35b4961cfa","symbol":"ZECZ16","side":"Buy","price":0.090872,"leavesQty":821}` [2016-09-29 19:27:58] wurstgelee : lol. nice DPE ... [2016-09-29 19:28:57] wurstgelee : sell one contract and its gone again ;) [2016-09-29 19:29:46] habibi : wurstgelee: nope [2016-09-29 19:29:55] wurstgelee : ok, it less oO [2016-09-29 19:29:57] wurstgelee : *its [2016-09-29 19:33:31] omicron : With all due respect I don't think you can list a product with no liquidity with high leverage. DPE/ADL none of that shit is going to work [2016-09-29 19:33:51] Tetsuo : yes we can! [2016-09-29 19:33:54] habibi : omicron: with all due respect who cares what u talk :D [2016-09-29 19:34:10] omicron : habibi: your mom does [2016-09-29 19:34:13] zanza : looks like some insurance fund was moved towards the DPE [2016-09-29 19:34:23] wurstgelee : zanza: ? [2016-09-29 19:34:28] habibi : omicron: don't learn from rapidtrades, it sucks [2016-09-29 19:34:30] zanza : its down to 61% now [2016-09-29 19:34:39] wurstgelee : zanza: becaust one contract got sold [2016-09-29 19:34:49] wurstgelee : last price marking ;) [2016-09-29 19:34:54] CaptainDean : 0.090872 821 835 [2016-09-29 19:35:02] CaptainDean : this is a liquidation that is not fill yet [2016-09-29 19:35:08] omicron : habibi: dont mean to offend. but basically im saying bitmex guys are smart, they should just figure it out [2016-09-29 19:35:14] CaptainDean : which bring sthe DPE [2016-09-29 19:35:34] habibi : CaptainDean: Change nick to CaptainObvious [2016-09-29 19:35:39] omicron : instead of blindly copying shit. soc losses from okc and call it DPE. contract termination from cryptofacilities and call it ADL [2016-09-29 19:35:45] CaptainDean : habibi: hahaha :P [2016-09-29 19:36:20] habibi : and partially from bitvc* :) [2016-09-29 19:36:21] CaptainDean : I think someone was wondering why, just syaing [2016-09-29 19:36:23] omicron : bitmex, guys you have 3 guys from wall st. you can come up with better shit than the okc guys. we depend on you to figure it out. please [2016-09-29 19:39:38] omicron : my suggestion humble as it may be is to get more market makers and add liquidity. This will solve all your DPE problems [2016-09-29 19:39:39] BitMEX_Greg : We are switching to autodelev soon. Should solve a lot of these problems [2016-09-29 19:41:28] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: u will switch markets with actual dpe as well? [2016-09-29 19:41:54] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: How do you mean? [2016-09-29 19:42:21] habibi : i mean, zec will convert into adl with that liquidation open? [2016-09-29 19:42:54] BitMEX_Greg : I'm not too sure. I'll need to ask Wally and the guys about what will happen if this remains [2016-09-29 19:45:19] omicron : BitMEX_Greg: I hope you guys have a plan. If not, you may have to open a new contract and let this terminate [2016-09-29 19:45:36] omicron : and you should expect to get shit about calculations if you do any conversions [2016-09-29 19:46:31] omicron : which reminds me, i should probably exit al positions before the switch [2016-09-29 19:47:01] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: k, could u try to specify what are the requirements for zcash market to be ur index price?i mean what if there will be exchange trading it at first day, will u add it as refence if it will be only one for days? [2016-09-29 19:47:52] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: We aim to chose the most liquid market that supports its. There is going to be minimal liquidity for the first 2 weeks or so on Zcash [2016-09-29 19:48:41] omicron : actually zcash is trading without an index now, correct? [2016-09-29 19:48:58] habibi : so lets say bittrex will add it and will have few 100s btc volume from the first day, is that enough or u will wait for polo? [2016-09-29 19:49:04] BitMEX_Greg : There is no index. We are using last price as the marking method [2016-09-29 19:49:33] omicron : BitMEX_Greg: last price marking seems to be working well. why not use it for everything else? it will simplify a lot of stuff [2016-09-29 19:49:37] BitMEX_Greg : Not sure. I would need to ask the guys about it [2016-09-29 19:50:02] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: if u can would be awsome, just for clarification [2016-09-29 19:50:08] BitMEX_Greg : omicron: In low liquid markets, it subjects it to manipulation [2016-09-29 19:50:15] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: np [2016-09-29 19:50:21] omicron : fyi coinpit uses last price marking and people seem to like it there [2016-09-29 19:51:00] BitMEX_Greg : I heard they lost a lot of money because of it. Each to their own [2016-09-29 19:51:55] BitMEX_Sam : The only reason Coinpit's last price marking works is because of the strict limit up/down [2016-09-29 19:52:24] BitMEX_Greg : Right. So the issue is that there will be no bids or offers available when the limits hit [2016-09-29 19:52:37] BitMEX_Sam : As for ZEC early settlement, no need, DPE is applied on a weekly basis so the DPE clears tomorrow. [2016-09-29 19:53:28] omicron : BitMEX_Sam: ah i see... they dont let the price move [2016-09-29 19:54:31] omicron : anyway, i mostly trade XBT here, so ZEC does not bother me too much. Once its on polo, i'll consider trading here. will it be swap or futures? [2016-09-29 19:54:49] omicron : post DEC i mean [2016-09-29 19:55:02] BitMEX_Greg : Depends on liquidity and borrow market availability I would say [2016-09-29 19:56:04] omicron : im sure others have mentioned this, but futures seem to work better for thin markets [2016-09-29 19:56:15] omicron : i love the swap on bitcoin, dont change it [2016-09-29 20:08:42] mrp1nk : Discussion with Bitfinex CFO Giancarlo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7qv02ztfn4 [2016-09-29 20:48:12] lockhedge : very interesting... Giancarlo owns "over 1.2 million tokens", so the CFO had $3.3m on his own exchange "as a private user" [2016-09-29 20:55:34] herpinator : wow [2016-09-29 20:59:08] Tetsuo : i feel for him [2016-09-29 21:09:33] aethlios : http://www.cnbc.com/2016/09/29/deutsche-bank-shares-drop-after-report-that-some-hedge-funds-have-reduced-exposure.html [2016-09-29 21:14:07] jeeburns : Hey just curious, had a pending deposit that disappeared. Don't see a balance [2016-09-29 21:15:15] habibi : jeeburns: its called robin hood feature, ur money was splitted among top 10 daily losers here [2016-09-29 21:15:39] jeeburns : lol [2016-09-29 21:16:38] jeeburns : Anything I need to do or just wait till it posts? [2016-09-29 21:17:07] habibi : try to restart pc, i heard this solution always works [2016-09-29 21:18:09] Tetsuo : Monero on the verge of collapse [2016-09-29 21:18:24] jeeburns : Seriously tho? [2016-09-29 21:18:34] BitMEX_Sam : jeeburns: It's likely still confirming. If you search your wallet address on a block explorer, you will likely see the pending deposit. [2016-09-29 21:18:42] BitMEX_Sam : We don't credit it to your account until it's been included in a block. [2016-09-29 21:18:57] jeeburns : ok thank you :) [2016-09-29 21:37:17] omicron : habibi are you serious? DPE also applies to deposits? [2016-09-29 21:38:25] BitMEX_Sam : That's not true, where did you get that idea? [2016-09-29 21:39:53] mjones : I can't wait till DPE starts. [2016-09-29 21:41:04] habibi : omicron: nah, i tried to be funny and failed like always :( [2016-09-29 21:43:05] justinlooking : habibi: i lol'd [2016-09-29 21:43:12] justinlooking : well more sniggered [2016-09-29 21:49:02] omicron : what is sceoed mean [2016-09-29 21:49:41] omicron : habibi dont feel bad, thats why we have trollbox, to troll [2016-09-29 22:07:15] habibi : omicron: u seems to be the nicest person i'v ever met here ;p [2016-09-29 22:12:41] omicron : im still a beginner troll [2016-09-29 22:12:50] omicron : one day i hope to be as obnoxious as bitmex_greg [2016-09-29 22:14:16] omicron : i got a 20% profit now but i know the ROE is BS. Should I exit now or hope it will go higher [2016-09-29 22:22:45] Tetsuo : if BTC hold, everything else drop ASAP [2016-09-29 22:33:06] BitMEX_Greg : omicron: Stay on the trollbox and it will fix you right up in no time [2016-09-29 22:33:58] omicron : honored to have the blessings my guru [2016-09-29 22:34:22] BitMEX_Greg : Go now and troll away my young padawan [2016-09-29 22:40:27] omicron : fvck i should have sold price is gonna drop now just to spite me [2016-09-29 22:40:51] omicron : fock [2016-09-29 22:40:56] omicron : fack [2016-09-29 22:41:03] omicron : feck [2016-09-29 22:41:07] omicron : fick [2016-09-29 22:41:12] omicron : fuck [2016-09-29 22:41:19] omicron : fyck [2016-09-29 22:49:32] BitMEX_Greg : You're overdoing it [2016-09-29 22:56:45] habibi : why for example right now mark price is 2103 on etc? [2016-09-29 22:56:51] habibi : was* [2016-09-29 23:05:17] sleger : click for more details [2016-09-30 00:09:30] omicron : as expected, i should have sold when i had 20% and i predicted it would sell but greed is such a muther fvcker [2016-09-30 00:10:06] omicron : fear and greed have fvcked my account despite calling every move correctly even in chop [2016-09-30 00:10:19] omicron : anyone else can sympathise?

[2016-09-30 00:12:11] omicron : this is why you cant beat algos. they have no fear [2016-09-30 00:13:17] omicron : bitmex should have used all their brains to just write a super algo [2016-09-30 00:39:41] zanza : maybe they do [2016-09-30 00:45:09] omicron : well if they had super algo, they dont need the pain of users like us [2016-09-30 00:45:41] omicron : frankly, crypto customers are kinda rough to deal with, coz they been f'd in the ass too much [2016-09-30 00:46:52] omicron : fvvvvvck 20% is now 0%. I know im gonna hold hoping it will go up just a bit but its gonna sell off and my in profit trade is gonna be a loss [2016-09-30 00:47:04] omicron : but if I do sell now at breakeven, it will certainly go up [2016-09-30 01:28:06] laisee : omicron: we have all got our popcorn ready, waiting for your next big move ... ;-) [2016-09-30 01:30:26] laisee : Deutsche not having a good week.

[2016-09-30 13:11:31] sleger : "BitMEX_Arthur: we will offer a full curve and we will see what users prefer" -> keep not listening, your clients are not japanese they dont want to trade jpy, even if you tweak the screen to trick them into thinking they trade usd [2016-09-30 13:13:03] sleger : and you won't see what users prefer by doing that, you will only see what I said above [2016-09-30 13:13:46] Rado : I don't get why the contract has to be JPY [2016-09-30 13:14:24] Rado : I get that they have a partnership with Quoine [2016-09-30 13:14:52] Rado : but they also trade BTC in USD [2016-09-30 13:15:25] Rado : you can see 24 volume is 6 XBT on XBJ [2016-09-30 13:15:41] Rado : 1472 XBT on XBT [2016-09-30 13:15:46] Rado : huge difference [2016-09-30 13:16:03] Rado : I don't understand how you go with the 0.1 % of users [2016-09-30 13:16:17] Rado : wait for crazy Japanese to start trading first [2016-09-30 13:16:32] rapidtrades : if being here taught me anything is that arguing won't make a difference :) [2016-09-30 13:16:50] rapidtrades : we made our point clear...now they have to see the result to change [2016-09-30 13:17:07] Rado : it will if we all stop trading [2016-09-30 13:17:14] Rado : no commissions no BitMEX [2016-09-30 13:18:06] Rado : actually no need to do that [2016-09-30 13:18:24] Rado : they will see the trading fall off a cliff when they make the change [2016-09-30 13:20:42] BitMEX_Greg : Appreciate the feedback, we consider ourselves to be highly adaptable. However we are targeting areas that we believe will be growth areas right now. [2016-09-30 13:21:04] rapidtrades : japan is not a growth area, they will die out soon [2016-09-30 13:21:14] BitMEX_Greg : Why do you think that? [2016-09-30 13:21:21] rapidtrades : cos they've stopped having sex decades ago [2016-09-30 13:21:25] Rado : Also you can target them without touching 90% of your business [2016-09-30 13:21:33] billyboy402 : Must of been a lot of withdraws - there a little slow tonight [2016-09-30 13:21:55] BitMEX_Greg : Haha, well I thought the government had introduced schemes for them to leave work early to spend more quality time at home [2016-09-30 13:22:05] arbitrage001 : will long dated btc be back?

But definitely a fortnightly contract [2016-09-30 13:24:13] Rado : why is XBTU16 still showing as open possitions? [2016-09-30 13:24:18] Rado : position [2016-09-30 13:26:08] BitMEX_Greg : Do you mind taking a screenshot and sending to us?

[2016-09-30 13:33:00] BitMEX_Greg : Yeah 1 bitcoin will be more expensive to buy with JPY than with USD if JPY depreciates [2016-09-30 13:37:09] Rado : anhone else thinks ZEC is an easy short here? [2016-09-30 13:37:15] Rado : anyone [2016-09-30 13:39:53] justinlooking : sort of [2016-09-30 13:40:27] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: did u get clarification about the rules of adding exchange as an index price for zec? [2016-09-30 13:41:22] arbitrage001 : habibi: where is zec being traded [2016-09-30 13:42:34] habibi : arbitrage001: there are no zec main net coins yet [2016-09-30 13:43:02] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: We will decide on an exchange early November, no set date as yet [2016-09-30 13:44:19] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: could u set a clear rules as its important for trading here when there will be posibility to have price indexed to market [2016-09-30 13:45:56] BitMEX_Greg : I understand your concern. I will bring it up with the guys see if we can add something to the contract specifications page [2016-09-30 13:56:36] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: We will have some clearer rules coming soon [2016-09-30 13:58:49] habibi : Thanks, looking forward to see them [2016-09-30 14:48:20] Panoukla : I still don't get it why liquidating emptied my account [2016-09-30 14:49:03] Rado : Panoukla: that's what liquidating does if you are using cross margin [2016-09-30 14:49:16] Rado : or even if you used specific margin [2016-09-30 14:49:25] Panoukla : i was cross [2016-09-30 14:49:27] Rado : depends on what was your leverage [2016-09-30 14:49:32] BitMEX_Greg : Panoukla: Hi, I can assist you here. [2016-09-30 14:49:39] mjones : welcome back XMR buyers [2016-09-30 14:49:51] Rado : so cross gives you maximum protection, but also wipes a lot of your holdings [2016-09-30 14:49:55] sleger : yes please return all of his monies, it's not his fault if he got unlucky and took the wrong side of the trade [2016-09-30 14:50:06] Panoukla : i lost all bc of the tiny last bit of monero dump [2016-09-30 14:50:24] Rado : Panoukla: looks like your risk was big [2016-09-30 14:50:30] BitMEX_Greg : As Rado was saying, using Cross Margin as the margin method uses all available funds in your account as margin. Please take a read of the margin page here: https://www.bitmex.com/app/isolatedMargin [2016-09-30 14:50:36] Rado : you have to invest only portion of your holdings [2016-09-30 14:50:40] BitMEX_Greg : sleger: You of all traders should know we don't do that [2016-09-30 14:51:00] Rado : BitMEX_Greg: sleger was kidding [2016-09-30 14:51:07] BitMEX_Greg : I know :) [2016-09-30 14:51:10] Rado : :-) [2016-09-30 14:51:13] sleger : yep, even if the trader is not the one who screwed up. I think he was kidding too rado [2016-09-30 14:52:48] Panoukla : i thought i was losing just a portion but liquidating took all [2016-09-30 14:53:44] Rado : did you have more than 50% of your holdings in this trade? [2016-09-30 14:54:07] BitMEX_Greg : Panoukla: During a liquidation event, the engine will attempt to use all available funds you have assigned to it (in this case since you chose Cross Margin, then all available funds in your wallet) to avoid a liquidation. If the price kept declining then a liquidation will not be avoided. [2016-09-30 14:54:23] BitMEX_Greg : Please take a read of the liquidation guide: https://www.bitmex.com/app/liquidation [2016-09-30 14:54:54] BitMEX_Greg : I suggest to try a lower leverage if you are new to the system [2016-09-30 14:55:49] habibi : aka deposit more as soon as possible! try harder [2016-09-30 14:56:52] Panoukla : so may i have accounting about what price my contracts were sold by the machine bc it does add up.. [2016-09-30 14:57:14] BitMEX_Greg : Take a look at your trade history: https://www.bitmex.com/app/tradeHistory [2016-09-30 14:57:26] BitMEX_Greg : It will show you the liquidation event at the bankruptcy price. [2016-09-30 15:00:40] Panoukla : it does but this sell order is nowhere to be found in the recent orders of monero [2016-09-30 15:01:24] Panoukla : the machine sold me contracts at 0.012443 [2016-09-30 15:01:37] Panoukla : where is this order in the recent orders ? [2016-09-30 15:02:01] Panoukla : the machine sold my contracts at 0.012443 [2016-09-30 15:03:17] BitMEX_Greg : The price you see is the bankruptcy price. You would have received a liquidation email explaining all the details regarding the liquidation and prices [2016-09-30 15:04:20] BitMEX_Greg : The Maintenance Margin on Monero is 5%. The liquidation engine will liquidate you when your margin drops below this level and liquidate you at the bankruptcy price (at 0%). The engine will then attempt to close out the position in the market using the remaining funds to do so. Any funds leftover are added to the insurance fund. [2016-09-30 15:07:21] sleger : and once this fund reaches 10k, the balance is transferred to my account, thank you for your contribution [2016-09-30 15:08:50] Panoukla : the price went 65 satoshi lower than my margin and i lost all.. well done [2016-09-30 15:23:45] arbitrage001 : is the newly propose future contract inverse too? [2016-09-30 15:28:50] BitMEX_Sam : Yes, XBJ will be inverse [2016-09-30 15:29:43] arbitrage001 : BitMEX_Sam: i mean the 7d, and 3 months contract [2016-09-30 15:30:08] BitMEX_Sam : Yes - we're referring to the same thing. [2016-09-30 15:30:21] arbitrage001 : BitMEX_Sam: alright. thank you [2016-09-30 15:30:50] Sqrl : Huh. BTCZECZ16's DPE is back to 0%. [2016-09-30 15:35:49] BitMEX_Sam : Sqrl: Yes, the price has dropped since yesterday, so the value of the position that the engine holds has increased and no loss is necessary [2016-09-30 15:37:51] Sqrl : And now it's back up to 75.58%!!! [2016-09-30 15:38:07] sleger : because someone traded 1 at 0.105 [2016-09-30 15:39:36] Sqrl : At 0.10657, the DPE was 75.7% [2016-09-30 15:39:45] Sqrl : At .090674, it was 0% [2016-09-30 15:39:55] Sqrl : At .025, it's 75.59% [2016-09-30 15:40:10] Sqrl : Correction to last: At .015, it's 75.59% [2016-09-30 15:46:27] habibi : a lot of people here want quanto, quote from bitmex mail "Many traders have noted the difficulty in trading Quanto futures products given the complexity and non-linearity." Lol :D [2016-09-30 15:48:09] Sqrl : The difference in value on a 821 contract position between .090674 and .105 is 11.762 BTC. [2016-09-30 15:48:29] BitMEX_Greg : We have seen many traders here say they don't like trading quanto at all. [2016-09-30 15:48:30] Sqrl : "Profit Adjustment = Total Loss / (Total Profit + Existing Insurance Fund)" [2016-09-30 15:48:43] Sqrl : And the existing insurance fund is 37 BTC. [2016-09-30 15:48:52] Sqrl : Those numbers don't add up. [2016-09-30 15:52:55] sleger : We have seen many traders here say they like trading quanto that's all. [2016-09-30 15:53:12] BitMEX_Greg : lol [2016-09-30 15:55:09] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: why not just give a choice to both groups? or simple say that main market maker don't want to mm quantos as they harder to mm [2016-09-30 15:57:00] BitMEX_Greg : Sqrl: I believe funds have been spent on this liquidation aggressing the price up already. Also the liquidation fund covers all products, not just Zcash. That is why you are calculating the numbers you are. [2016-09-30 15:58:04] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: Inverse seems more the industry standard. It promotes arbitrage. And yes you are correct, we have had several market makers reach out to us telling us they do not wish to MM quantos at all [2016-09-30 15:58:36] habibi : but still there is mm on actual quantos so its not that bad at the end [2016-09-30 15:59:14] BitMEX_Greg : Right, but from our feedback it becomes expensive for them thus perhaps larger spreads [2016-09-30 16:00:05] habibi : still our choice whether we want to play larger spreads on quanto [2016-09-30 16:00:46] Sqrl : Greg: So, what's the insurance fund for ZEC? [2016-09-30 16:01:39] BitMEX_Greg : I don't have access to that information. I will need to check with Wally or one of the other founders. [2016-09-30 16:02:19] Sqrl : Not exactly confidence-inspiring. [2016-09-30 16:13:36] sleger : Well, the guy just came out of jail, i think it's actually comforting he doesn't have access to the private keys of the insurance fund yet :D [2016-09-30 16:15:59] BitMEX_Greg : sleger: There's trolling and there's making false accusations. I've never been in jail before [2016-09-30 16:16:26] sleger : You werent Arthur's drug dealer ? [2016-09-30 16:17:41] BitMEX_Greg : I hope you don't research your trade ideas in the same manner you research exchanges [2016-09-30 16:21:40] sleger : that was obviously a joke... [2016-09-30 16:22:19] BitMEX_Greg : I know. I don't take anything you say seriously anyway :P [2016-09-30 17:21:21] rapidtrades : sleger: who was in jail? [2016-09-30 17:26:12] lockhedge : sleger just had too much champagne too early again [2016-09-30 18:08:48] Satoshi2 : where can i short a crypto? [2016-09-30 18:10:07] Tetsuo : internet [2016-09-30 18:11:15] Kalman : hold fiat [2016-09-30 18:16:54] Tetsuo : Zcash is blocked in both directions now. DPE works as upper limit, and the 800 contracts short liquidationworks for the downside [2016-09-30 18:19:34] rapidtrades : 75% DPE..u don't see that often [2016-09-30 18:20:57] Satoshi2 : how do you know i meant zcash ;-P ? [2016-09-30 18:21:32] Tetsuo : most attractive short in here right now [2016-09-30 18:23:18] Satoshi2 : i guess that is normal when an unproven coin is worth 60 USD lol ;-P [2016-09-30 18:23:38] Satoshi2 : and when will it be possible to short it again in your opinion? [2016-09-30 18:25:11] Tetsuo : start to build a position step by step , an entry point above 0.1 is very likely a no-brainer [2016-09-30 18:26:10] Satoshi2 : Tetsuo: hi there, [2016-09-30 18:26:18] Satoshi2 : thx for answering :) [2016-09-30 18:26:31] Tetsuo : ur welcome [2016-09-30 18:26:37] Satoshi2 : you said it is not possible to short zcash at the moment. is this correct? [2016-09-30 18:27:17] Satoshi2 : i never shortet something and just want to play a little bit but like you said...it is a no brainer. [2016-09-30 18:27:23] Tetsuo : it is possible [2016-09-30 18:27:30] Satoshi2 : who are these people that BUY at these prices?!?! [2016-09-30 18:27:37] BitMEX_Greg : Satoshi2: You can short Zcash. There are no restrictions [2016-09-30 18:27:59] Satoshi2 : BitMEX_Greg: thx! [2016-09-30 18:28:19] Satoshi2 : i have another question if you have time? [2016-09-30 18:28:30] habibi : BitMEX_Greg: also could u try to specify when liquidation on zcash will be moving and when not ? [2016-09-30 18:29:15] Satoshi2 : so i would like to short it: is it possible to make a short which will only close when i decide i want to sell or is there a point, at which the order gets antomatically sold? [2016-09-30 18:29:34] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: How do you mean by when it will be moving or not? [2016-09-30 18:30:08] habibi : it was above .09 few hours ago, now its way lower [2016-09-30 18:30:10] BitMEX_Greg : Satoshi2: You can place stop orders [2016-09-30 18:31:33] BitMEX_Greg : habibi: Something I need to find out. I believe the system moved with regards to how the market is moving [2016-09-30 18:32:31] habibi : would be awsome if u would specify any rules... like any about that type of stuff. u know it looks shady whether it moves without clear reason [2016-09-30 18:32:57] Tetsuo : BitMEX_Greg: ask one of the mods, they can probably help you [2016-09-30 18:35:14] sleger : lol [2016-09-30 18:35:56] BitMEX_Greg : Tetsuo: Question for Wally I'm afraid [2016-09-30 18:46:11] lockhedge : habibi: the contract is marked to the last price, so i guess in the case of ZECZ16 the bid can't be moved down (before the liquidation itself gets filled) and can't be moved up anymore (because the insurance fund is already maxed out at this price) - and there is no funding (that effects the value of the liquidated position) [2016-09-30 18:46:53] habibi : lockhedge: nope, it moved down [2016-09-30 18:47:28] lockhedge : habibi: when? [2016-09-30 18:47:49] habibi : like 90 minutes ago or sth around [2016-09-30 18:47:53] habibi : guess manually [2016-09-30 18:58:37] lockhedge : will BitMEX still allow open liquidations with ADL or will ADL immediately apply when a liquidation order doesn't get filled? [2016-09-30 19:05:47] BitMEX_Greg : lockhedge: I believe ADL will apply if after an unsuccessful aggression of the liquidation. I am unsure if there is a time element too (i.e. the system waits for x minutes before applying ADL). [2016-09-30 19:09:10] aethlios : what do you see zcash will reach before the real coin starts??? [2016-09-30 19:11:33] Tetsuo : 10000000$ [2016-09-30 19:14:00] lockhedge : 100% auto deleveraging [2016-09-30 19:16:44] aethlios : https://z.cash/blog/continued-funding-and-transparency.html [2016-09-30 19:17:00] aethlios : Therefore, they effectively paid $15.24 per coin. [2016-09-30 19:25:47] sleger : "(along with the accompanying ownership of Zcash Co) " [2016-09-30 19:26:06] sleger : they didnt pay 15$ just for the coins [2016-09-30 19:31:51] AudibleScience : I just got a bunch of weird notices for no reason? Then got redirected to a page that said: Too Many Requests You have been initiating too many requests. Continued abuse will result in an IP ban.

[2016-09-30 19:36:44] BitMEX_Sam : I'm actually just in the process of deploying a fix for it. [2016-09-30 19:37:05] BitMEX_Sam : There isn't any affect on your account, no worries. [2016-09-30 19:37:19] AudibleScience : nice one. [2016-09-30 20:03:51] omicron : BitMEX_Sam: wow dont you guys test these things on testnet before deploying? [2016-09-30 20:04:07] BitMEX_Sam : Of course we do, this bug only manifests in very specific conditions. [2016-09-30 20:04:15] BitMEX_Sam : Sometimes not everything is caught. [2016-09-30 20:04:27] omicron : yes of course, i thought it happened everytime [2016-09-30 20:35:05] justinlooking : had been meaning to report same thing [2016-09-30 20:57:59] mjones : get in XMR 10x to double your BTC [2016-09-30 21:05:17] mjones : nvm. people are still dumping large amounts [2016-09-30 22:19:47] RocketScience : Bitcoin is moving in china :P [2016-09-30 22:20:23] laisee : it moved there couple of years ago ... but keeps usa address [2016-09-30 22:29:30] RocketScience : Btc actiooon, will it happen?
