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.

Since technically you are not really exchanging anything as you need to close the position out before you can withdraw the funds [2016-12-15 14:31:40] sleger : volume should be compared with similar leverage [2016-12-15 14:32:01] sleger : even bitfinex has a large advantage over bitstamp [2016-12-15 14:33:55] rapidtrades : that's not important imo [2016-12-15 14:34:14] sleger : do you think the volume would be the same here if leverage was 3x ?

But XBTUSD is more of a margin based product given the funding [2016-12-15 14:36:48] sleger : there is no DPE / ADL on margin on bitfinex [2016-12-15 14:36:55] rapidtrades : not exactly because the funding fluctuates +- here...while I traded on bitfinex longs always paid [2016-12-15 14:37:00] sleger : they just take all your money :) [2016-12-15 14:37:12] rapidtrades : f*cking rats [2016-12-15 14:37:52] sleger : but real margin trading is still real exchange => technically there is no risk of dpe/adl unlike the product here because the usd dont exist [2016-12-15 14:38:46] sleger : but to go back to comparing, it depends what the goal of the comparison is, all exchanges are different : product, leverage, fees... and all impact volume somehow.

I traded there a while back, would be best bid / offer. Saw volume increasing but I didn't get any fills [2016-12-15 14:44:26] rapidtrades : yes i dunno how he can't see it, it's very obvious [2016-12-15 14:44:29] sleger : it happened only for a bit at the beginning 2 years ago [2016-12-15 14:44:45] rapidtrades : i happened as recently as 8 months ago when i still traded there [2016-12-15 14:44:53] BitMEX_Greg : I haven't looked recently tbh [2016-12-15 14:45:12] Cryptlex : you guys sure it isnt some high frequency tactics?
