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.

[2016-12-26 22:16:12] rapidtrades : whenever we go down it's always manipulation from China...when we go up its Chinese using bitcoin to evade capital controls
[2016-12-26 22:16:34] rapidtrades : or poor illiterate Indians who have just discovered bitcoin
[2016-12-26 22:16:41] Tr : you dont need manipulation to go down with artificially pumped price
[2016-12-26 22:17:33] Tr : Yeah i am not buying this narrative that btc reddit and forums trying to push, that price going up becomes Joe Schmo wiring money to buy BTC because its cool
[2016-12-26 22:18:07] mjones : 0kcoin using 5x leverage to pump the price 5x higher
[2016-12-26 22:18:58] Yuppie : Quick question: why do some trades carry a negative fee? I just got paid for a trade...

[2016-12-26 22:19:57] mjones : excluding bitfinex pump it has been 40 days since XMR has been this high
[2016-12-26 22:19:59] rapidtrades : Yuppie: u get paid if u have an order resting on the orderbook and smone fills it
[2016-12-26 22:20:39] Yuppie : Really? And I pay for market? Shouldn't it be the reverse?
[2016-12-26 22:20:56] rapidtrades : no?
[2016-12-26 22:21:00] mjones : if everyone got paid to market buy then who would put orders on the orderbook
[2016-12-26 22:21:21] Naloxone : It's should crash. This pump looks ridiculously manipulated
[2016-12-26 22:22:01] mjones : all right Naloxone. dumping my btc long to long xmr

[2016-12-26 22:28:55] narnarfromnarnia : mjones: could be a spike up though to play
[2016-12-26 22:29:07] rapidtrades : not gonna lie, $8 premium for 3.5 days is mighty stupid
[2016-12-26 22:29:08] narnarfromnarnia : i hope we see 890 before 910 is all
[2016-12-26 22:30:30] rapidtrades : for the mathematically challenged, that's 92% annualized
[2016-12-26 22:30:51] halloz : It amazes me we've been up here for this long
[2016-12-26 22:30:51] mjones : yeah i'm surprised too. first it was under a lot and now over a lot

[2016-12-26 22:39:54] halloz : Can an all in on black jack get you broke? trololo
[2016-12-26 22:40:37] BitMEX_Greg : wellerchang: If it doesn't have a sign then it is positive. It will show - in front if it is a negative rate

[2016-12-26 22:47:36] Tr : its the most blatant manipulation ever
[2016-12-26 22:48:51] CaptainDean : wellerchang: i wouldn't bet on 6500 right now
[2016-12-26 22:49:28] mariomarco : Tr: why would they turn it off
[2016-12-26 22:50:17] justinlooking : lost of disjointedness right now: http://imgur.com/oozdH69
[2016-12-26 22:51:13] MikeHunt : justinlooking: wheres that data from?
[2016-12-26 22:52:37] rapidtrades : IT'S FAKE
[2016-12-26 22:52:39] rapidtrades : HE FAKED IT
[2016-12-26 22:52:42] rapidtrades : IT'S FAKE NEWS
[2016-12-26 22:53:20] justinlooking : MikeHunt: a tool i made
[2016-12-26 22:53:38] BitFan : what's fake?
[2016-12-26 22:54:05] rapidtrades : justinlooking: I'm calling Mike Zuckerberg
[2016-12-26 22:54:34] rapidtrades : sleger prolly has his number
[2016-12-26 22:54:43] rapidtrades : all those rich c*nts know each other
[2016-12-26 22:55:13] Tr : Bitstamp tried to sell
[2016-12-26 22:55:15] wellerchang : look here come 6500
[2016-12-26 22:55:23] Tr : tough luck with china bots taking care of that
[2016-12-26 22:55:36] wellerchang : any sell must be met with equal or greater buy
[2016-12-26 22:55:53] Tr : or you can just fake buy coins from yourself
[2016-12-26 22:57:49] justinlooking : timelapse of same thing from august: https://gfycat.com/PepperyAcclaimedHart
[2016-12-26 22:59:37] wellerchang : thats very cool!
[2016-12-26 22:59:45] wellerchang : you should put it online somewhere
[2016-12-26 23:04:30] justinlooking : thanks - hoping someone will replicate it ;)
[2016-12-26 23:07:44] justinlooking : it scrapes tradeblock's public api for the data, and uses plotlyjs to render, which pegs my cpu even at 2fps. needs a real js/devops guru to move it out of concept to something deployable
[2016-12-26 23:07:58] justinlooking : rapid is that ur stringy bot on bid in xbtusd???
[2016-12-26 23:12:53] wellerchang : here comes 6500!
[2016-12-26 23:14:21] narnarfromnarnia : 100x short
[2016-12-26 23:14:23] narnarfromnarnia : let's drop
[2016-12-26 23:14:43] narnarfromnarnia : trip top coming up
[2016-12-26 23:15:23] wellerchang : INSANITY
[2016-12-26 23:15:44] narnarfromnarnia : what's with the flickering
[2016-12-26 23:15:48] narnarfromnarnia : some bots acting cray
[2016-12-26 23:16:36] Naloxone : Looks like the major western exchanges stopped buying this crap from China
[2016-12-26 23:18:14] MikeHunt : didnt someone say they were gonna kill themselves if it got to 6500?
[2016-12-26 23:18:29] wellerchang : ME
[2016-12-26 23:18:33] wellerchang : CYA
[2016-12-26 23:18:44] MikeHunt : live stream?
[2016-12-26 23:20:21] wellerchang : this is what pure insanity looks like
[2016-12-26 23:20:38] Tr : its not insanity
[2016-12-26 23:20:42] MikeHunt : usd/cny might explain it
[2016-12-26 23:20:45] Tr : they do w/e they want with the price
[2016-12-26 23:20:46] Naloxone : Bitfinex started pumping too
[2016-12-26 23:22:36] Nerve : tchu tchu tchu
[2016-12-26 23:24:07] amirmass : time for the moonshot
[2016-12-26 23:24:20] MikeHunt : its meant to be crashing... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEvYzpobteg
[2016-12-26 23:25:47] Nerve : LOL
[2016-12-26 23:33:09] narnarfromnarnia : that funding rate is high no?
[2016-12-26 23:33:27] narnarfromnarnia : means people will want to exit that soon i wonder
[2016-12-26 23:33:31] narnarfromnarnia : wait for it to drop
[2016-12-26 23:33:41] narnarfromnarnia : bag holders paying big interest
[2016-12-26 23:34:44] CaptainDean : 4 hours 25 mins
[2016-12-26 23:35:03] MikeHunt : i think correction to around 820 is likely
[2016-12-26 23:35:21] MikeHunt : then continuation towards ATH
[2016-12-26 23:35:46] MikeHunt : china still has a lot of capital left to outflow
[2016-12-26 23:36:44] MikeHunt : problem is it usually takes an exchange failure to crash it
[2016-12-26 23:37:38] justinlooking : in OrderbookL2, it apears f(price) = id. but what's f?
[2016-12-26 23:38:17] justinlooking : nvm
[2016-12-26 23:38:45] emperortrump : Can someone tell me how I set a simple stop loss trigger?
[2016-12-26 23:39:09] Nerve : narnarfromnarnia: dump incoming ?
[2016-12-26 23:39:17] Tr : there are 3 dots to the rifght of Market - Limit - Stop Market
[2016-12-26 23:39:26] Tr : you can choose Stop Limit from there
[2016-12-26 23:39:33] narnarfromnarnia : Nerve: i hope so
[2016-12-26 23:39:45] narnarfromnarnia : i give up on tA and anything i can think of after getting rekt now
[2016-12-26 23:39:52] emperortrump : Tr: Thanks.
[2016-12-26 23:39:59] narnarfromnarnia : that 870 didn't hold nad had like 40k for long
[2016-12-26 23:40:05] narnarfromnarnia : blown on $1 price
[2016-12-26 23:40:24] narnarfromnarnia : i really needed a bitcoin to hold that last minute but didn't know anyone to help me
[2016-12-26 23:40:59] Tr : you cant apply TA when price is manipulated by 1 shady exchange and all other exchanges are just watching what it does
[2016-12-26 23:41:08] Nerve : i think its going up @narnarfromnarnia
[2016-12-26 23:42:42] Nerve : lets see...
[2016-12-26 23:48:30] narnarfromnarnia : Nerve: i never really just pumps straight from dead vol though im just hoping for 890 880 but we'll see
[2016-12-26 23:48:41] l3f : narnarfromnarnia: are you shorting again?

[2016-12-26 23:50:31] narnarfromnarnia : i wont it all on blackjack anyways at bovada
[2016-12-26 23:50:45] l3f : You degenerate gambler
[2016-12-26 23:50:48] MikeHunt : moving closer to the tipping point
[2016-12-26 23:50:50] narnarfromnarnia : anyone want to play there please use my email so i can try to win some hands to get back in here lol
[2016-12-26 23:51:14] MikeHunt : is there anyway to learn about the contract stuff?
[2016-12-26 23:51:19] MikeHunt : im just a vanilla buyer/seller
[2016-12-26 23:51:23] MikeHunt : sort of speculator
[2016-12-26 23:52:35] breadfan : what a confused fucking market today
[2016-12-26 23:55:18] micmix : MikeHunt: https://www.bitmex.com/app/seriesGuide/XBT
[2016-12-26 23:57:07] Angelika : micmix: hey man
[2016-12-26 23:57:20] Angelika : ops wrong account
[2016-12-26 23:57:29] Rado : hey micmix
[2016-12-26 23:58:06] Rado : do you change your spread dynamically based on market conditions?
[2016-12-26 23:58:11] Rado : or it's always the same
[2016-12-26 23:59:19] micmix : Angelika: now we know who makes all those fake girl accounts ;-)
[2016-12-26 23:59:29] Angelika : lol
[2016-12-26 23:59:39] Angelika : I just have this one
[2016-12-26 23:59:46] micmix : spread is dynamic
[2016-12-26 23:59:52] Angelika : and to my defence this is my wife's name
[2016-12-27 00:00:05] micmix : ok, I will let it pass this time
[2016-12-27 00:00:19] breadfan : fuck, i was getting turned on by having a girl trader in the trollbox :(
[2016-12-27 00:00:27] Angelika : micmix: how do you decide what the spread should be?
[2016-12-27 00:00:49] rapidtrades : WHERE WERE YOU WHEN BITCOIN HIT AN ALL-TIME HIGH?
[2016-12-27 00:01:41] micmix : Rado: it's based on available liquidity here, spreads on other exchanges and volatility
[2016-12-27 00:02:33] Rado : micmix: you can get the liquidity from teh API?
[2016-12-27 00:02:43] MikeHunt : micmix: ty
[2016-12-27 00:02:44] micmix : I'm not going to give you exact formula, I said too much already ;-)
[2016-12-27 00:02:51] Rado : :-)
[2016-12-27 00:02:55] Rado : agreed
[2016-12-27 00:03:03] Rado : just need guidance
[2016-12-27 00:03:06] Rado : thanks
[2016-12-27 00:04:33] rapidtrades : micmix: what's ur daily turnover on swap?
[2016-12-27 00:04:55] micmix : rapidtrades: not much, about 1k btc or so
[2016-12-27 00:05:14] micmix : depends on volatility
[2016-12-27 00:05:43] rapidtrades : that's almost 1 million dollars bro
[2016-12-27 00:06:12] micmix : yeah but it's less than 10% of total
[2016-12-27 00:06:20] rapidtrades : loool
[2016-12-27 00:06:21] halloz : Long from 902 - we'll see how this goes ;o
[2016-12-27 00:06:59] rapidtrades : so u make $250 per day from maker fees alone
[2016-12-27 00:07:08] rapidtrades : almost 100k per year
[2016-12-27 00:08:21] micmix : a bit less bc my bot is taker 10-20% of time
[2016-12-27 00:08:34] sleger : if you quote 0.01 spread for 10k contracts on swap you will make much more than that in making rebate, doesnt mean much on your actual pnl
[2016-12-27 00:08:48] sleger : @rapidtrades
[2016-12-27 00:09:13] micmix : yep, maker fees is less than 20% of profit usually
[2016-12-27 00:09:55] Angelika : for the 3 days I have ran the bot I traded 450k contarcts
[2016-12-27 00:10:28] Angelika : 2 of the days was changing code and settings though
[2016-12-27 00:10:28] mariomarco : Angelika: what bot
[2016-12-27 00:10:38] CaptainDean : this is the most interresting dicussion of the day :P
[2016-12-27 00:10:39] Angelika : to make it work
[2016-12-27 00:10:48] MikeHunt : so where does one get one of these bots?
[2016-12-27 00:11:21] Speran49 : you travel to the sugar cane forest
[2016-12-27 00:12:08] MikeHunt : i could probably code a bot, just curious if there was anything off the shelf
[2016-12-27 00:12:22] Speran49 : there probably is in dark corners of the net
[2016-12-27 00:12:26] ett1 : yes, click here to buy now
[2016-12-27 00:12:35] Angelika : MikeHunt: there is
[2016-12-27 00:12:40] mariomarco : MikeHunt: imo its not about coding its about the logic/angle behind it
[2016-12-27 00:12:45] Speran49 : why would someone sell one if it makes the money for them?
[2016-12-27 00:12:45] Angelika : BitMEX has a simple example bot
[2016-12-27 00:13:18] MikeHunt : im not asking for a money machine
[2016-12-27 00:13:18] rapidtrades : market making is dumb anyway, noone makes money doing it
[2016-12-27 00:13:23] MikeHunt : just something i can put my own formulas in
[2016-12-27 00:13:33] rapidtrades : we should just drop this pointless discussion
[2016-12-27 00:13:37] Speran49 : lol
[2016-12-27 00:13:38] ett1 : look at github
[2016-12-27 00:13:44] MikeHunt : yeh ill start there
[2016-12-27 00:13:45] micmix : rapidtrades: tbh my turnover is much less when volatility is low. it usually stays below 10% of total
[2016-12-27 00:13:49] ett1 : search "bitcoin trading bot' or something
[2016-12-27 00:13:59] CaptainDean : rapidtrades: I love you rapid
[2016-12-27 00:14:01] Speran49 : ive tried a million bots
[2016-12-27 00:14:08] Speran49 : i do much better just trading on my own w/o them
[2016-12-27 00:14:09] micmix : agree with rapidtrades, noone can make money market making
[2016-12-27 00:14:12] MikeHunt : i know how to trade bitcoin i just miss timings due to personal life/asleep
[2016-12-27 00:14:20] micmix : you all should stop trying
[2016-12-27 00:14:47] ett1 : MikeHunt: whats your timeframe
[2016-12-27 00:14:51] rapidtrades : +1
[2016-12-27 00:14:56] MikeHunt : ett1: 1 day
[2016-12-27 00:14:59] ett1 : dont bother with bots it yout trade daily
[2016-12-27 00:15:09] ett1 : like 1 week or 1 month positions
[2016-12-27 00:15:17] ett1 : you should learn about backtesting instead
[2016-12-27 00:15:23] mjones : where the fuck is btc going
[2016-12-27 00:15:25] ett1 : rather than arbitrage bots
[2016-12-27 00:15:39] Speran49 : trend is down mjone
[2016-12-27 00:15:44] Speran49 : but it could go up short term
[2016-12-27 00:15:46] Speran49 : you never know!
[2016-12-27 00:15:53] MikeHunt : ett1: ill have to set up some app to tell me wen there is a good dip
[2016-12-27 00:15:58] ett1 : use a platform thats already built for tsting trading systems, rather than building from scratch
[2016-12-27 00:16:32] MikeHunt : its just broken down throu a trendline it seems
[2016-12-27 00:16:42] ett1 : MikeHunt: like based on price change, or a momentum indicator?
[2016-12-27 00:16:57] MikeHunt : ett1: i think the kramer method is 5% drop
[2016-12-27 00:17:21] MikeHunt : but i know how i would program it
[2016-12-27 00:17:27] MikeHunt : i just need an SDK to play with
[2016-12-27 00:17:28] Speran49 : <shrugs>
[2016-12-27 00:17:29] ett1 : ok. but how do u know if buying after 5% drop or 15% drop is best
[2016-12-27 00:17:30] MikeHunt : since im very busy
[2016-12-27 00:17:36] Speran49 : im short waiting on further confirmation
[2016-12-27 00:17:56] ett1 : making a bot to send the alerts wont be helpful, if you dont know how the trades persom
[2016-12-27 00:17:59] ett1 : perform
[2016-12-27 00:18:03] MikeHunt : ett1: well i'd have to program technical analysis into it
[2016-12-27 00:18:18] ett1 : thats why i suggest tradestatation or similar
[2016-12-27 00:18:26] Speran49 : dont bother
[2016-12-27 00:18:27] ett1 : built for testing TA
[2016-12-27 00:18:28] MikeHunt : ill hvae a look
[2016-12-27 00:18:28] Speran49 : stick to manual trading
[2016-12-27 00:18:39] Speran49 : ive bakctested and tried for 1000 hrs
[2016-12-27 00:18:40] ett1 : rather than spread trading, or market making
[2016-12-27 00:18:57] ett1 : thats what you build your own bit for. youll need to be decent programmer
[2016-12-27 00:18:58] halloz : 901 CHEAP coin
[2016-12-27 00:18:58] Speran49 : but good luck if you decide to ;)
[2016-12-27 00:19:46] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTH17`: sell 400 @ 958.05
[2016-12-27 00:19:59] MikeHunt : ett1: i think i can do the programming part
[2016-12-27 00:21:41] traxor : Hi mike -- my arb bots and sideways market bots work awesome -- the dynamic market bots are constantly fucking up -- fyi from someone who has tried.
[2016-12-27 00:22:04] ett1 : ok ye theres some online examples if you look
[2016-12-27 00:22:16] micmix : MikeHunt: if you want to backtest your strategies try tradewave.net
[2016-12-27 00:23:42] MikeHunt : traxor: what do you actually use to make them thou?
[2016-12-27 00:24:04] traxor : I use haas bots
[2016-12-27 00:24:47] ett1 : for anyone why runs bots
[2016-12-27 00:25:09] MikeHunt : micmix: ty ill check that out
[2016-12-27 00:25:11] ett1 : how long do the systems work for, before they 'stop working'
[2016-12-27 00:25:17] ett1 : youve ran some for years?
[2016-12-27 00:25:39] ett1 : or need to keep testing & tweaking every few months
[2016-12-27 00:25:41] ett1 : ?
[2016-12-27 00:25:46] MikeHunt : i'd rather make something that asks for confirmation before making a move
[2016-12-27 00:25:47] ett1 : as consditions change
[2016-12-27 00:26:16] ett1 : MikeHunt: then you probably want to be a manual trader
[2016-12-27 00:26:28] ett1 : using alerts only
[2016-12-27 00:26:33] MikeHunt : ett1: ive found the phone apps arent very reliable
[2016-12-27 00:26:45] ett1 : tradingview?
[2016-12-27 00:26:47] breadfan : set some alerts on tradingview
[2016-12-27 00:26:49] breadfan : yeah
[2016-12-27 00:26:53] ett1 : i use bitcointicker app which is good for me
[2016-12-27 00:27:52] MikeHunt : issue ive found with apps is they arent persistent
[2016-12-27 00:28:02] MikeHunt : i want something thats like my alarm clock
[2016-12-27 00:28:08] MikeHunt : wont shut up til i manually turn it off
[2016-12-27 00:28:16] MikeHunt : i sleep hevy
[2016-12-27 00:28:34] traxor : I'm constantly tweaking -- like I said -- some bots work fine with minimal tweaking -- dynamic markets are BRUTAL towards my bots and seemingly trade AGAINST me -- probably my fault as a lousy programmer, regardless of my backtesting.
[2016-12-27 00:28:53] ett1 : traxor: seems like trading the bots
[2016-12-27 00:28:59] ett1 : same as trading the market
[2016-12-27 00:29:14] ett1 : if they only work 1 month thats like a position
[2016-12-27 00:29:24] ett1 : just my view of things
[2016-12-27 00:29:27] Speran49 : markets have something called market state
[2016-12-27 00:29:33] Rado : traxor: what is a dynamic market bot?
[2016-12-27 00:29:33] Speran49 : bots can work for a time in one
[2016-12-27 00:29:36] Speran49 : and then stop in the next
[2016-12-27 00:30:04] ett1 : Speran49: so you are trying to predict the state of the market, instead of price pretty much
[2016-12-27 00:30:18] MikeHunt : tradewave doesnt seem to have RSI
[2016-12-27 00:31:24] ett1 : if this bot doesnt work in sideways markets, and this bot doesnt work in volatile upwards market
[2016-12-27 00:31:27] CaptainDean : @ett1 thanks for the aps ! they got bitmex pretty cool
[2016-12-27 00:31:48] ett1 : you have to decide what you think the market is going to do, to decide which bot to turn on/off
[2016-12-27 00:31:48] traxor : You HAVE to know the state of the market in order to determine which bots to run -- that is MY experience. Sideways markets are GREAT for bots -- always chewing away at profits -- major swings screw them up and trade agains t you at times. Arb bots work great unless the order books are thin.
[2016-12-27 00:31:54] ett1 : why not just tarde direction
[2016-12-27 00:32:51] ett1 : seems like people test and find something thats worked during the last 2 months on 5 mins candles
[2016-12-27 00:33:02] ett1 : then get surprised when it stops working after 1 week
[2016-12-27 00:34:46] traxor : ett1 You're exactly correct -- it is constant management and not good sleep at night during certain markets -- I run bots -- and I'm still 50/50...
[2016-12-27 00:35:01] REKT : Liquidated long on `WINZ16`: sell 60 @ 0.001459

[2016-12-27 00:37:31] mjones : xmr new high
[2016-12-27 00:41:16] traxor : If xmd wasn't one of the 3 alts that I liked -- I'd probably short at this price
[2016-12-27 00:41:42] traxor : Actually -- maybe I will.
[2016-12-27 00:49:08] mjones : xmr highly manipulative
[2016-12-27 00:58:34] halloz : China is opening soon - this finna get interesting
[2016-12-27 00:59:08] Angelika : halloz: you realize there is no closing

[2016-12-27 01:00:18] halloz : I don't see us going any farther without new money coming in
[2016-12-27 01:00:26] mjones : should have longed more during that dip
[2016-12-27 01:01:12] ett1 : whats positive about Monero?
[2016-12-27 01:01:25] ett1 : i thought it was just anonymous transactions
[2016-12-27 01:01:27] rms : REP also way up...
[2016-12-27 01:01:41] halloz : ett1: Another pumpcoin
[2016-12-27 01:01:45] halloz : thats about it
[2016-12-27 01:01:46] ett1 : like darkcoin / dash or soemthing
[2016-12-27 01:01:54] ett1 : thats what i though
[2016-12-27 01:07:13] mjones : xmr is nice because it's older with most of its coins mined. and has only been mega pumped once
[2016-12-27 01:07:49] mjones : and there is still no solid #1 anon coin and the one that pumps the most will be the chosen one
[2016-12-27 01:19:42] l3f : >waiting for the zec pump
[2016-12-27 01:23:40] Nerve : so...where the fuuck is that dump ?
