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.

[2016-11-02 11:22:08] seafood : I find the documentation a little too jargon laden [2016-11-02 11:22:30] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: They work very well [2016-11-02 11:22:48] seafood : I'm sure they do. Are you a bot? [2016-11-02 11:23:05] BitMEX_Wally : Haha, I'm one of the co-founders [2016-11-02 11:23:12] seafood : Okay, sorry. [2016-11-02 11:23:45] BitMEX_Wally : We have a testnet environment if you would like to play around without using real money: https://testnet.bitmex.com [2016-11-02 11:23:46] seafood : So, this is the first time I've thought about trading futures. I think I understand what an option is, but I really don't get futures fully yet. [2016-11-02 11:24:05] seafood : BitMEX_Wally: That is fantastic! I will do that for sure! [2016-11-02 11:24:52] seafood : But would you be willing to run through some of the basics with me? [2016-11-02 11:25:05] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: Our futures are cash settled, so they are similar to trading the underlying coin, and you get your PNL in Bitcoin [2016-11-02 11:25:13] seafood : I realise that's a lot to ask since you have so many customers on here. [2016-11-02 11:25:26] ytaews : seafood: do you mean futures on this website or futures generally? [2016-11-02 11:25:35] seafood : This website, but also in general. [2016-11-02 11:26:05] ytaews : So in general you're agreeing to buy or sell a certain amount of something at a date in the _future_ [2016-11-02 11:26:13] seafood : So, I'm looking at the ZECZ16 orderbook at the moment. [2016-11-02 11:26:24] ytaews : ok [2016-11-02 11:26:37] BitMEX_Wally : Futures can be physically settled (when the contract expires the long pays cash and the short delivers the product) or cash settled (long receives PNL between entry price and settlement price) [2016-11-02 11:26:40] seafood : What I find strange is that the current price of ZEC is 1.60 and yet the last traded price on the contract is 0.402765 [2016-11-02 11:26:42] BitMEX_Wally : All our futures are cash settled, using Bitcoin [2016-11-02 11:26:59] seafood : Say, I think the that ZEC is going to go down from 1.60. Which contract do I buy? [2016-11-02 11:27:07] ytaews : seafood: what that means is that the market 'expects' the price of ZEC to go down [2016-11-02 11:27:20] ytaews : the market expects that the price of ZEC in december will be around 0.4 [2016-11-02 11:27:26] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: You would sell ZECZ16 but everyone expects that too which is why it is trading at 0.40 [2016-11-02 11:27:35] seafood : Got it. [2016-11-02 11:27:57] BitMEX_Wally : There is no way to borrow ZEC and short it on the spot market, hence why its price is high at 1.60 [2016-11-02 11:28:57] seafood : Sure. But could I make a profit, theoretically, with a couple of days on the ZECZ16 market? [2016-11-02 11:29:08] seafood : And what would have to happen for that to happen? [2016-11-02 11:29:27] BitMEX_Wally : Sure, buy low sell high [2016-11-02 11:29:29] BitMEX_Wally : Or sell high buy low [2016-11-02 11:29:38] BitMEX_Wally : 1 contract of ZECZ16 is worth 1 ZEC, and if you hold the position until 30 December 2016 then your position will be closed out at the settlement price which will be determined by looking at the ZEC market on Poloniex [2016-11-02 11:29:42] ytaews : people's expectations of the price in December would need to change [2016-11-02 11:29:52] seafood : e.g. Say I buy a contract right now at, say 0.4 [2016-11-02 11:30:03] seafood : What happens if the price of ZEC drops from 1.6 to 1.2 [2016-11-02 11:30:10] seafood : Does that give me anything? [2016-11-02 11:30:17] ytaews : not directly [2016-11-02 11:30:20] RocketScience : BitMEX_Wally: Lisk getting delisted on 4th? [2016-11-02 11:30:26] BitMEX_Wally : RocketScience: Yes [2016-11-02 11:30:29] ytaews : it might change people's expectations of what the price will be in December [2016-11-02 11:30:31] RocketScience : beofre the pump? :( [2016-11-02 11:30:34] RocketScience : haha [2016-11-02 11:30:50] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: If the price is 1.2 on 30 December and you went long 1 contract at 0.40 then you will make 0.80 profit [2016-11-02 11:30:51] sally : if we think december close looks under .4 then we will sell it harder [2016-11-02 11:31:08] seafood : BitMEX_Wally: People sell contracts before the closing day, right? [2016-11-02 11:31:18] seafood : How do they make a profit when they do that? [2016-11-02 11:31:21] sally : if we think it close at 1btc then we buy it up [2016-11-02 11:31:21] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: They can sell whenever but no harm in holding until expiry [2016-11-02 11:31:36] BitMEX_Wally : If you buy at 0.40 now and sell at 0.60 next week then you make 0.20 [2016-11-02 11:31:46] seafood : sally: And what price would you buy it at? [2016-11-02 11:32:06] seafood : How do I buy a contract at 0.40 but then get someone to pay 0.60 for it? [2016-11-02 11:32:13] sally : seafood: I wouldn't [2016-11-02 11:32:19] ytaews : if I knew the answer to that, I wouldn't tell you [2016-11-02 11:32:25] sally : ytaews: lol [2016-11-02 11:32:28] seafood : Hahaha. [2016-11-02 11:32:44] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: The simplest way to think about it is to treat ZECZ16 as a coin with its own value. It goes up and down and its value will eventually converge to ZEC at the end of December [2016-11-02 11:32:51] sally : seafood: put a buy at .4 and I will sell to you [2016-11-02 11:33:29] seafood : sally: Ah, so I'm assuming you think it worth less than 0.4 in December? [2016-11-02 11:33:32] seafood : (or is it the other way around?) [2016-11-02 11:33:52] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: You would be long, he would be short [2016-11-02 11:33:54] sally : seafood: im just a mug trying to take advantage of you [2016-11-02 11:34:11] Formiga : BitMEX_Wally: Is there any way to turn off the purple line price indicator on charts? [2016-11-02 11:34:12] sally : dont listen to anything I say in here, ever [2016-11-02 11:34:22] BitMEX_Wally : If the price of ZEC doubles tomorrow, then it's likely the price of ZECZ16 will go up too, so the value of ZECZ16 is heavily affected by the underlying coin [2016-11-02 11:34:28] seafood : sally: Don't worry I'll take you with a grain of salt [2016-11-02 11:34:40] BitMEX_Wally : Formiga: Right click on charts choose 'Objects Tree' then click 'X' on `.ZECXBT` [2016-11-02 11:35:47] rapidtrades : BitMEX_Wally: wally what's the reasoning behind keeping the 10 cap still? why not remove it regardless of whether we're marked to polo [2016-11-02 11:36:02] Formiga : BitMEX_Wally: thank you [2016-11-02 11:36:14] seafood : Okay, thanks everyone you've been somewhat helpful. Thanks. [2016-11-02 11:36:17] BitMEX_Wally : rapidtrades: Basically we'll remove the cap when we move to fair price marking because then we only need to send out 1 email announcement rather than 2. [2016-11-02 11:36:21] seafood : I'm going to try my hand on the testnet. [2016-11-02 11:36:28] BitMEX_Wally : rapidtrades: I've already moved the maxPrice from 10 XBT to 100 XBT in testnet [2016-11-02 11:37:50] seafood : So, one more question to the crowd [2016-11-02 11:37:57] seafood : Price is currently 1.6 [2016-11-02 11:38:11] seafood : If the price was 0.4 in December then you would make quite a bit of profit, right? [2016-11-02 11:38:22] BitMEX_Wally : Yes [2016-11-02 11:38:23] seafood : Does everyone make that who bought a contract? [2016-11-02 11:38:46] BitMEX_Wally : Everyone who is long on 30 December will have their position sold at the settlement price i.e. 1.6 in this example [2016-11-02 11:39:05] BitMEX_Wally : So everyone long will make qty x 1.6 - avgEntryPrice [2016-11-02 11:39:25] seafood : It just seems to somehow not work. If everyone thinks the price is going down how can everyone profit? [2016-11-02 11:39:29] seafood : I mean, where is the money coming from? [2016-11-02 11:40:09] BitMEX_Wally : If the price of ZEC is 1.6 in December, then ZECZ16 will be 1.6 in December too [2016-11-02 11:40:22] BitMEX_Wally : As the clock runs out, the futures price will converge on the spot price [2016-11-02 11:40:42] wurstgelee : z16 here will settle on spot price @ dec 30 [2016-11-02 11:40:43] wurstgelee : ;) [2016-11-02 11:40:45] BitMEX_Wally : seafood: The futures contract is zero-sum. For every long there is a short, for every profit there is a loss [2016-11-02 11:40:54] Slashterix : or spot will converge on bitmex price ;) [2016-11-02 11:40:56] seafood : Ah, thank you! [2016-11-02 11:41:01] wurstgelee : Slashterix: lol....or that [2016-11-02 11:41:03] wurstgelee : =) [2016-11-02 11:41:07] seafood : So there are people who think it's worth more than 1.6 in December? [2016-11-02 11:41:22] wurstgelee : probably even that [2016-11-02 11:41:24] wurstgelee : 1.6 doesnt matter tho [2016-11-02 11:41:31] wurstgelee : u can buy for .4 here [2016-11-02 11:41:34] rapidtrades : doesn't have to be worth more :) [2016-11-02 11:41:36] seafood : BitMEX_Wally: Are you saying that it can be hard to buy contracts? [2016-11-02 11:41:43] wurstgelee : so u would have to thinkm its worth more than .4 @ dec 30 [2016-11-02 11:41:48] rapidtrades : even if it halves u still make 100% [2016-11-02 11:41:49] seafood : I mean hard to find buyers? [2016-11-02 11:41:49] BitMEX_Wally : There's an order book [2016-11-02 11:41:54] wurstgelee : if u long there :) [2016-11-02 11:42:02] BitMEX_Wally : There are bids and offers in the order book
