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.

[2017-01-09 13:32:50] l3f : The reason is this, low volume on the rises, high volume on the falls
[2017-01-09 13:33:18] l3f : I'm going to have to go over the volumes again
[2017-01-09 13:33:19] l3f : sigh

[2017-01-09 15:18:12] rapidtrades : dam shitter up
[2017-01-09 15:19:49] StanTheMan : when is eth going to pump again
[2017-01-09 15:25:17] elmorte : heh, my ETH limit on Polo triggered.
[2017-01-09 15:26:31] elmorte : Now just MAID, LSK and ZEC to go...
[2017-01-09 15:29:24] StanTheMan : damn my ltc 20x long was margin called on the okcasino
[2017-01-09 15:30:06] StanTheMan : ltc did a 110% retrace of that pump
[2017-01-09 15:30:45] StanTheMan : then goes sideways for 52 hours lol
[2017-01-09 15:31:26] l3f : Thoughts on XBTUSD?
[2017-01-09 15:33:18] rapidtrades : u know i wouldn't mind the funding if it made sense
[2017-01-09 15:33:45] rapidtrades : but going up it was peanuts for longs and now shorts are getting charged even though we#re going up!
[2017-01-09 15:39:46] sleger : elmorte: what you mean by "limit on polo" ?
[2017-01-09 15:40:54] Rado2 : rapidtrades: price of XBTUSD is matching spot right now
[2017-01-09 15:41:02] Rado2 : so you could argue that the funding is fine
[2017-01-09 15:42:45] l3f : sleger: whales' accumulating right now
[2017-01-09 15:42:46] l3f : I have evidence
[2017-01-09 15:42:55] l3f : everything fits
[2017-01-09 15:43:21] l3f : and this guy's strong, he's got shit tons of capital
[2017-01-09 15:43:34] Rado2 : looks like we will trade in a range for a few more days
[2017-01-09 15:43:36] Rado2 : if not more
[2017-01-09 15:43:54] sleger : l3f: where do you think he is buying (exchange) ?
[2017-01-09 15:44:11] Rado2 : l3f: evidence?
[2017-01-09 15:44:26] l3f : sleger: okc
[2017-01-09 15:44:35] l3f : look at the chart and tell me what you see
[2017-01-09 15:44:58] l3f : BTCCNY
[2017-01-09 15:45:15] Apocalyptic : l3f: if you believe something strong enough you'll see it on every chart
[2017-01-09 15:45:24] sleger : btccny wont mean much because 0 fees so you can make the graph say what you want by wash trading
[2017-01-09 15:47:33] l3f : I'll tell ya in private
[2017-01-09 15:48:02] l3f : too many ppl leeching here
[2017-01-09 15:49:15] brojo : i want to leech
[2017-01-09 15:50:54] sleger : brojo: just buy !!
[2017-01-09 15:51:49] rustiv : let the leechers leech
[2017-01-09 15:52:13] l3f : brojo: ya just buy
[2017-01-09 15:55:54] Rado2 : l3f: insider trading :-)
[2017-01-09 15:56:14] Dynamix : up or down we go ?
[2017-01-09 15:56:26] sleger : it comes from public market data so not really
[2017-01-09 15:57:21] Rado2 : sleger: if it's from public data then it will not help you at all
[2017-01-09 15:57:27] Rado2 : since everyone else knows the same thing
[2017-01-09 15:57:35] sleger : your bot uses public data too
[2017-01-09 15:57:39] l3f : sleger: well do you see anything with okc?
[2017-01-09 15:57:51] sleger : not everyone looks at things the right way
[2017-01-09 15:57:59] Rado2 : sleger: that is true
[2017-01-09 15:58:11] sleger : l3f: no, but i only looked at bitcoinwisdom graph
[2017-01-09 15:58:25] l3f : ok huge volumes when moving side ways is 100% accumulation
[2017-01-09 15:58:26] Rado2 : but that is not advantage because of knowledge
[2017-01-09 15:58:42] sleger : l3f: i see similar volumes all the time. what timeframe you looking at ?
[2017-01-09 15:59:03] l3f : Compare current hourly volumes with volumes during upwards movement back in december
[2017-01-09 15:59:04] l3f : it's almost double
[2017-01-09 15:59:21] l3f : and we're going side ways
[2017-01-09 15:59:45] sleger : l3f: it's double because volatility is much higher even if just sideways
[2017-01-09 15:59:56] Rado2 : yep
[2017-01-09 16:00:07] Rado2 : volume always goes up during breakouts and breakdowns
[2017-01-09 16:00:14] sleger : something happens every 4 hours now
[2017-01-09 16:00:19] sleger : here on bitmex
[2017-01-09 16:00:24] sleger : at mid funding
[2017-01-09 16:00:27] sleger : what is it ?
[2017-01-09 16:00:59] l3f : We've moved like 2 cny
[2017-01-09 16:01:03] Rado2 : sleger: what did you notice?
[2017-01-09 16:01:26] l3f : Rado2: A ghost
[2017-01-09 16:01:29] sleger : Rado2: buy /sell buttons disappeared just at 4hrs before funding
[2017-01-09 16:01:35] sleger : just like they do at funding
[2017-01-09 16:01:42] l3f : Yeah I had that happen
[2017-01-09 16:01:48] l3f : I think they're liive updating the UI
[2017-01-09 16:02:04] l3f : The instrument also get disabled with a "instrument not available"
[2017-01-09 16:02:05] l3f : thing
[2017-01-09 16:02:06] sleger : i think they will change funding to 4hrs maybe
[2017-01-09 16:02:08] Rado2 : sleger: so they stop/refresh the engine
[2017-01-09 16:02:29] l3f : whenever people say "something happened"
[2017-01-09 16:02:32] l3f : is really spooky
[2017-01-09 16:02:35] sleger : this way higher funding but they can keep their 100x
[2017-01-09 16:03:44] Rado2 : sleger: you mean they will reduce the rate but charge it twice more often?
[2017-01-09 16:03:51] sleger : Rado2: no
[2017-01-09 16:03:54] sleger : keep same logic
[2017-01-09 16:04:01] sleger : but on 4hrs instead of 8
[2017-01-09 16:04:08] Rado2 : isn't that bad fo rpeople who have to pay?
[2017-01-09 16:04:17] l3f : sleger: Compare volumes on btcchina
[2017-01-09 16:04:18] l3f : with okc
[2017-01-09 16:04:19] sleger : on average it shouldnt change anything
[2017-01-09 16:04:22] l3f : at the same intervals
[2017-01-09 16:04:29] l3f : okc is double
[2017-01-09 16:04:35] l3f : right now
[2017-01-09 16:04:52] l3f : You don't see the accumulation pattern on btcchina
[2017-01-09 16:04:57] sleger : l3f: okc is also almost same volume all the time because its fake volume (wash trading)
[2017-01-09 16:05:17] l3f : No but during this period of side ways, okc has double compared to rising
[2017-01-09 16:05:20] l3f : on btcchina
[2017-01-09 16:05:23] sleger : you're just looking at bots trading against themselves and creating fake volume
[2017-01-09 16:05:39] l3f : You think they turned on more bots for the sideways?
[2017-01-09 16:05:56] sleger : and the 1 hour volume is 50k coin so what someone is buying 25k coins an hour ?
[2017-01-09 16:06:02] sleger : lol
[2017-01-09 16:06:11] Rado2 : sleger: why would they want to create fake volume? I don't see the advantage.
[2017-01-09 16:06:48] sleger : place 100btc ask, have your other bot take it, gives the impression of strong buy, price goes up
[2017-01-09 16:06:57] sleger : this is basic manipulation
[2017-01-09 16:06:58] l3f : Why would okc have significantly more volume during this particular side ways movement compared to other chinese exchanges?
[2017-01-09 16:07:03] sleger : super easy with 0 fee
[2017-01-09 16:07:54] l3f : You don't think this is accumulation?
[2017-01-09 16:08:08] BitMEX_Sam : Like spoofing, but even easier to do because there's no laws against washing
[2017-01-09 16:08:09] sleger : not really
[2017-01-09 16:08:21] sleger : BitMEX_Sam: are you thinking about changing funding period to 4 hours ?
[2017-01-09 16:08:32] l3f : sleger: no other explaination?
[2017-01-09 16:08:41] BitMEX_Sam : sleger: No, we are running archive jobs more frequently due to the increased load on the system
[2017-01-09 16:08:41] sleger : dont think so
[2017-01-09 16:09:00] sleger : BitMEX_Sam: that makes the buy/sell buttons disappear briefly ?
[2017-01-09 16:09:05] BitMEX_Sam : yes
[2017-01-09 16:09:09] sleger : ok thanks
[2017-01-09 16:09:16] StanTheMan : this is distribution before another leg down. the sellers will buy back lower
[2017-01-09 16:09:22] BitMEX_Sam : The instrument closes for a brief time during that archive, and when instruments are closed the buy/sell buttons disappear
[2017-01-09 16:09:33] BitMEX_Sam : Since we push every delta out the websocket, this one gets pushed too
[2017-01-09 16:10:06] BitMEX_Sam : In the near future we'll be optimizing this
[2017-01-09 16:10:52] l3f : StanTheMan: why would he do that?
[2017-01-09 16:11:08] l3f : You think this is microselling out?
[2017-01-09 16:11:16] l3f : certainly possible
[2017-01-09 16:11:36] l3f : Either accumulation or just microexiting
[2017-01-09 16:11:48] l3f : both would raise volumes with sideways
[2017-01-09 16:15:14] Apocalyptic : BitMEX_Sam: I've noticed yesterday that longing at x1 on H17 gave me a liquidation price in the 400s, how is this possible ? It's supposed to be 0 in this case
[2017-01-09 16:15:39] l3f : Also what is up with the liquidity
[2017-01-09 16:15:40] l3f : why is it so bad?
[2017-01-09 16:16:13] Apocalyptic : l3f: the main MM probably left the building during the crazy volatility
[2017-01-09 16:16:29] l3f : We need more MMs :)
[2017-01-09 16:16:49] StanTheMan : l3f: a lot of new buyers buying the top or averaging down that will panic dump.
[2017-01-09 16:16:50] odieoh : Is there a fairly simple bot available to play with? Interested in creating an account with a very low balance just to play around with botting for the first time
[2017-01-09 16:17:07] Apocalyptic : or he just increased the spread he quotes quite q bit
[2017-01-09 16:17:08] BitMEX_Greg : l3f: What product are you referring to? I see the main MM still quoting
[2017-01-09 16:17:19] l3f : BitMEX_Greg: Look at xbtusd
[2017-01-09 16:17:23] l3f : It's gaping
[2017-01-09 16:17:40] l3f : Whenevner it moves slightly it gapes
[2017-01-09 16:18:00] BitMEX_Greg : l3f: $ wise or % wise?
[2017-01-09 16:18:06] Apocalyptic : BitMEX_Greg: Please can you take a look at my question above ?
[2017-01-09 16:18:08] BitMEX_Greg : Apocalyptic: Will take a look at this
[2017-01-09 16:18:18] l3f : Both?
[2017-01-09 16:18:34] Apocalyptic : BitMEX_Greg: It's the same at testnet, I tried with 1 contract yesterday
[2017-01-09 16:18:44] BitMEX_Sam : Apocalyptic: Both XBTUSD & XBTH17 are inverse contracts
[2017-01-09 16:18:48] BitMEX_Sam : See the calculator for more details
[2017-01-09 16:19:21] BitMEX_Sam : So when you buy one contract, you're putting up the amount of bitcoin equal to US$1
[2017-01-09 16:19:33] BitMEX_Sam : If Bitcoin went to 0, you couldn't possibly have put up enough to equal $1
[2017-01-09 16:19:33] l3f : Is the post-only thing fixed with stops?
[2017-01-09 16:19:39] BitMEX_Greg : l3f: Not sure what you mean, our MM tells us they have not changed anything
[2017-01-09 16:19:41] Apocalyptic : right, I'm not longing with USD...
[2017-01-09 16:19:51] l3f : BitMEX_Greg: ah nevermind then
[2017-01-09 16:19:55] Apocalyptic : BitMEX_Sam: thanks
[2017-01-09 16:19:59] BitMEX_Greg : l3f: Can you explain in more detail?
[2017-01-09 16:22:39] BitMEX_Sam : l3f: I recall your question
[2017-01-09 16:22:54] BitMEX_Sam : That is not a bug; the post-only preference is simply saved, you are assuming it is sent with Trailing Stops but it is not
[2017-01-09 16:22:59] l3f : I know
[2017-01-09 16:23:00] l3f : but in the UI
[2017-01-09 16:23:04] l3f : the checkbox is in another tab
[2017-01-09 16:23:14] BitMEX_Sam : Yes - how is that an issue? It is saving your preferences for a different order type
[2017-01-09 16:23:26] l3f : But the checkbox in the other tab affects my stop!
[2017-01-09 16:23:32] BitMEX_Sam : No, it doesn't.
[2017-01-09 16:23:48] l3f : Then why is my stop post only?
[2017-01-09 16:23:51] BitMEX_Sam : As I mentioned, the post-only instruction is not sent with Trailing Stops or Stop Market orders
[2017-01-09 16:24:01] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: sell 1000 @ 890.48
[2017-01-09 16:24:01] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: sell 12000 @ 890.59
[2017-01-09 16:24:05] l3f : Well then I had stops get cancelled
[2017-01-09 16:24:13] l3f : and they were market stops
[2017-01-09 16:24:44] BitMEX_Sam : That's possible if you didn't choose `Close` and didn't have the margin to actually execute the order

[2017-01-09 17:12:33] Alignment : when did they?
[2017-01-09 17:12:41] arbitrage101 : not too long ago

[2017-01-09 17:29:06] QuantFocus : hope you had a relaxing weekend.
[2017-01-09 17:34:22] QuantFocus : so the alt-coin pump cycle lasted quite long last year, and started early
[2017-01-09 17:34:58] cxche : Yoo what's the leverage max for spot?
[2017-01-09 17:35:02] cxche : quick
[2017-01-09 17:35:13] QuantFocus : i was going to respond quickly
[2017-01-09 17:35:30] ayy_lmao : hello amigos
[2017-01-09 17:35:30] QuantFocus : but then you said quick
[2017-01-09 17:35:31] QuantFocus : so i figured i'd drag it out a bit
[2017-01-09 17:35:37] QuantFocus : it's 100x
[2017-01-09 17:35:49] cxche : Really?
[2017-01-09 17:35:51] QuantFocus : ayy_lmao: :+1:
[2017-01-09 17:36:15] cxche : For Bitcoin spot?
[2017-01-09 17:37:42] odieoh : yes
[2017-01-09 17:37:48] QuantFocus : it says it right in the name
[2017-01-09 17:37:57] QuantFocus : Perpetual Swap (100x)
[2017-01-09 17:38:08] odieoh : But does 100x really mean 5x?
[2017-01-09 17:38:11] odieoh : how do I know?
[2017-01-09 17:38:17] QuantFocus : you know, good question
[2017-01-09 17:38:23] QuantFocus : let me get carl sagan on the line
[2017-01-09 17:38:27] odieoh : it could even mean 7x
[2017-01-09 17:38:56] QuantFocus : carl says it really means 100rekt
[2017-01-09 17:39:08] odieoh : Carl is a wise ghost
[2017-01-09 17:39:36] sleger : i like how the newb comes, asks a stupid question and then says "quick" and you guys answer him
[2017-01-09 17:40:18] odieoh : @cxche, you can trade with 100x but if you actually leverage that much, the natural little swings in the market will get you liquidated pretty quick
[2017-01-09 17:40:56] sleger : odieoh: hey what's the open interest on swap ?
[2017-01-09 17:40:56] sleger : quick
[2017-01-09 17:41:37] odieoh : lil short of 4 million
[2017-01-09 17:41:59] odieoh : whats the temperature in Spain?
[2017-01-09 17:42:04] odieoh : QUICK

[2017-01-09 17:47:35] StanTheMan : wow open interest on swap is so low
[2017-01-09 17:47:53] StanTheMan : xbth17 almost has more. seems people like low premium and no funding
[2017-01-09 17:48:08] StanTheMan : makes sense because if price rises so does the premium. doesnt make sense to pay 0.375 in funding every 8 hours
[2017-01-09 17:51:04] sleger : the people who entered with >100$ premium certainly wouldnt agree
[2017-01-09 17:51:39] FreeMoney : mod I want to set a cover for my short much lower and also rebuy some coins. this possible?
[2017-01-09 17:52:52] FreeMoney : sleger: can we hang out while I pick your brains for trading insight?
[2017-01-09 17:53:18] FreeMoney : there are 4-5 guys here who I know are most expertise
[2017-01-09 17:53:39] sleger : i'm afraid i can't do that dave
[2017-01-09 17:53:58] FreeMoney : sleger: lol dave?
[2017-01-09 17:54:12] QuantFocus : yea, from that movie Andre 3000
[2017-01-09 17:54:46] FreeMoney : He is guarding valuable information
[2017-01-09 17:54:47] QuantFocus : where the wu tang clan goes back to the future
[2017-01-09 17:54:55] FreeMoney : lmao
[2017-01-09 17:55:17] FreeMoney : cannot get in the hands of the wrong trader for bitcoin would never be the same
[2017-01-09 17:56:43] QuantFocus : orly
[2017-01-09 17:56:52] StanTheMan : QuantFocus: have you seen this wu tang clan clip? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBNlhoNMIzM
[2017-01-09 17:59:27] QuantFocus : love it
[2017-01-09 17:59:36] QuantFocus : white people are so weird
[2017-01-09 18:00:31] sleger : are you a c.e.o. ?
[2017-01-09 18:02:06] QuantFocus : i own a pharmaceutical company
[2017-01-09 18:02:31] sleger : nice !
[2017-01-09 18:02:46] sleger : are you martin ?

[2017-01-09 18:03:20] QuantFocus : he's the trolliest

[2017-01-09 18:05:05] anonymous123421 : huh, interesting
[2017-01-09 18:05:09] QuantFocus : nice
[2017-01-09 18:05:20] QuantFocus : i'm a LTC bull
[2017-01-09 18:05:31] QuantFocus : fundamentally as well
[2017-01-09 18:05:51] sleger : really ?
[2017-01-09 18:05:58] sleger : i understand it might pump one more time
[2017-01-09 18:05:59] QuantFocus : if there truly is a need to move significant capital, it's still one of the most liquid alts, and trustworthy networks
[2017-01-09 18:06:05] sleger : but ... it's just a copycat
[2017-01-09 18:06:17] anonymous123421 : What does it offer compared to other alts?
[2017-01-09 18:06:19] QuantFocus : right, but that blockchain can handle high volume capital
[2017-01-09 18:06:20] sleger : there is eth
[2017-01-09 18:06:44] QuantFocus : there will need to be more than btc + 1 alt to absorb volume
[2017-01-09 18:06:59] StanTheMan : ltc only liquid on okcoin and huobi
[2017-01-09 18:06:59] QuantFocus : any of the top 5 alts are probably poised for capital inflows
[2017-01-09 18:07:17] QuantFocus : institutional capital inflows to crypto
[2017-01-09 18:07:22] sleger : i have some xmr, eth and etc
[2017-01-09 18:07:33] QuantFocus : i'm mostly posturing at this point, but there is some rationale there
[2017-01-09 18:07:35] sleger : i have some ltc too
[2017-01-09 18:07:57] StanTheMan : better have some ltc
[2017-01-09 18:08:06] anonymous123421 : Should I stash away some alts for holding? I feel like ETH might be worth something in a while
[2017-01-09 18:08:10] sleger : 2500ltc i had forgotten for about a year and then discovered in the 0kcoin futures wallet
[2017-01-09 18:08:11] StanTheMan : crazy china fatcats will buy ltc
[2017-01-09 18:08:13] QuantFocus : trillions in worldwide capital looking for an exit hatch. btc can't absorb it all
[2017-01-09 18:08:50] arbitrage101 : sleger: that is a lot of money to be forget
[2017-01-09 18:08:58] QuantFocus : right?
[2017-01-09 18:08:59] StanTheMan : eth market cap too high
[2017-01-09 18:09:13] zanza : QuantFocus: BTC has to absord it, you can only trade BTC for fiat
[2017-01-09 18:09:18] QuantFocus : i found a $20 in my pocket the other day. I was pretty happy
[2017-01-09 18:09:27] StanTheMan : ltc has to do a 5x to match ETH market cap
[2017-01-09 18:09:35] QuantFocus : zanza: that's definitely not true
[2017-01-09 18:09:40] QuantFocus : there are fiat to eth/ltc exchanges
[2017-01-09 18:09:44] rapidtrades : LTC looks dead
[2017-01-09 18:09:46] rapidtrades : buy ZEC
[2017-01-09 18:09:50] zanza : coinbase only
[2017-01-09 18:09:56] QuantFocus : for now...
[2017-01-09 18:10:08] QuantFocus : if the demand is there, they can flip the switch
[2017-01-09 18:10:16] QuantFocus : like i said, mostly posturing.
[2017-01-09 18:10:32] QuantFocus : just something to keep on your radar
[2017-01-09 18:11:36] QuantFocus : and finally, i think the negative news cycle is coming to an end on ETH
[2017-01-09 18:11:59] QuantFocus : drove the price down enough for accumulation to occur again. will be interesting to see what they do this year
[2017-01-09 18:12:03] arbitrage101 : QuantFocus: dont see any smart contract coin coming out
[2017-01-09 18:13:41] StanTheMan : i'm waiting for FCT to pump. 25 million market cap now. a lot of room to grow
[2017-01-09 18:14:06] QuantFocus : i don't own any yet, but i was planning on allocating a bit there
[2017-01-09 18:14:07] QuantFocus : strong team
[2017-01-09 18:14:16] QuantFocus : StanTheMan:
[2017-01-09 18:15:09] StanTheMan : for sure
[2017-01-09 18:15:50] QuantFocus : it's a technology layer for btc, right?
[2017-01-09 18:15:54] QuantFocus : i read a little about it but forget now
[2017-01-09 18:18:06] StanTheMan : yeah
[2017-01-09 18:18:26] StanTheMan : taking a while to develop
[2017-01-09 18:18:38] StanTheMan : if they had a team of a bunch of people working full time it'd go quicker

[2017-01-09 18:19:11] QuantFocus : as i recall they've raised substantial outside VC...

[2017-01-09 18:28:37] QuantFocus : doesn't directly benefit btc, but blockchain adoption is positive imo

[2017-01-09 18:35:38] StanTheMan : i thought there was suppose to be some big announcement for ETH today
[2017-01-09 18:36:32] StanTheMan : nice xmr bounce off that dump

[2017-01-09 18:46:38] sleger : probably 400 right ?
[2017-01-09 18:46:40] arbitrage101 : MikeHunt: look can be deceiving
[2017-01-09 18:47:06] MikeHunt : arbitrage101: yeh i know, usd/cnh suggests this thing should go up like a rocket
[2017-01-09 18:47:28] StanTheMan : we'll know in 9 hours if this pumps or dumps
[2017-01-09 18:47:40] StanTheMan : within 9 hours
[2017-01-09 18:48:30] mariomarco : StanTheMan: why 9 hours
[2017-01-09 18:49:10] king.rex : anyone connecting to api on win10, suggestions?
[2017-01-09 18:49:14] StanTheMan : i drew some lines on the bitfinex chart and that's when they cross
[2017-01-09 18:50:16] MikeHunt : it seems its already crossed to me
[2017-01-09 18:50:54] StanTheMan : yeah
[2017-01-09 18:51:44] MikeHunt : http://i.imgur.com/7mwmvjn.png
[2017-01-09 18:51:50] MikeHunt : anyone else agree?
[2017-01-09 18:52:26] mariomarco : MikeHunt: sadly i think you are right mikey
[2017-01-09 18:52:31] QuantFocus : maybe you should move your line lower
[2017-01-09 18:52:39] QuantFocus : then it won't dump
[2017-01-09 18:52:47] MikeHunt : QuantFocus: lol
[2017-01-09 18:54:35] StanTheMan : waiting for the elevator to go down
[2017-01-09 18:54:39] StanTheMan : taking the steps down is so boring
[2017-01-09 18:54:58] rapidtrades : gayasss dump
[2017-01-09 18:55:04] rapidtrades : move it crsh
[2017-01-09 18:55:18] StanTheMan : i dont always short the bottom. but when i do, i get rekt
[2017-01-09 18:55:25] moo : huge scam :/ 500$ max price for btc i am afraid
[2017-01-09 18:55:59] MikeHunt : this is where i think its going
[2017-01-09 18:56:00] MikeHunt : http://i.imgur.com/yMFaRPR.png
[2017-01-09 18:56:03] MikeHunt : i hope im wrong
[2017-01-09 18:56:13] moo : you are not wrong
[2017-01-09 18:56:20] moo : btc will come back to pre-china price
[2017-01-09 18:56:24] moo : 400$ or so
[2017-01-09 18:57:03] KyllingLolsson : Buy more cheap coins then!
[2017-01-09 18:57:46] MikeHunt : what i dont get is usd/cnh is going up, china still buying btc but its still going down unless whales/prc are trying to crash it
[2017-01-09 18:59:41] KyllingLolsson : MikeHunt: you a pro trader?
[2017-01-09 19:00:16] MikeHunt : KyllingLolsson: im not going to say pro until im minted lol
[2017-01-09 19:00:42] sleger : well you did predict either 400$ or 80k so you must have some good knowledge to make such bold prediction
[2017-01-09 19:01:20] MikeHunt : sleger: parabollic curve suggested max height ~80k of last bubble
[2017-01-09 19:01:28] MikeHunt : $400 is ~ mean if this is gox style collapse
[2017-01-09 19:01:41] StanTheMan : i was told btc going to $16,000
[2017-01-09 19:01:48] sleger : we just failed slightly short of 80k
[2017-01-09 19:01:55] KyllingLolsson : MikeHunt: i just assume, you say a lot of good stuff ;)
[2017-01-09 19:02:11] StanTheMan : MikeHunt has 2 weeks under his belt
[2017-01-09 19:02:17] MikeHunt : sleger: we got stone walled at 8888 on okc, other exchanges got DDOS-ed
[2017-01-09 19:02:20] StanTheMan : beginners luck
[2017-01-09 19:02:21] sleger : KyllingLolsson: good stuff is 400$ or the 80k ?
[2017-01-09 19:02:28] MikeHunt : StanTheMan: 2 weeks on bitmex
[2017-01-09 19:03:27] sleger : and 3 weeks on finex
[2017-01-09 19:03:49] KyllingLolsson : He doesnt fuck around with calls/charts, what i know... Many here are Gamblers
[2017-01-09 19:04:04] MikeHunt : sleger: never used finex, have an account but the hack scared me away
[2017-01-09 19:04:25] StanTheMan : isn't this suspicious https://cryptowat.ch/okcoin/ltccny/2h
[2017-01-09 19:04:35] StanTheMan : https://cryptowat.ch/0kcoin/ltccny/2h
[2017-01-09 19:04:40] StanTheMan : change the 0 to o
[2017-01-09 19:04:48] StanTheMan : the 2 hour chart is insanely sideways
[2017-01-09 19:07:30] StanTheMan : i used finex a few times. almost used gox but thankfully never did
[2017-01-09 19:07:51] sleger : so at best you have 6 months of trading belt @MikeHunt
[2017-01-09 19:08:17] StanTheMan : i thought gox was going to add ltc and i was going to trade LTC there thinking the price would be way higher because the btc price was way higher
[2017-01-09 19:08:35] MikeHunt : sleger: i was around for 2013 bubble so 3-4 years
[2017-01-09 19:08:57] StanTheMan : i used btce back when LTC was worth pennies
[2017-01-09 19:08:58] sleger : MikeHunt: so finex hack of aug 2016 scared you away back in 2013, 2014, 2015 ?
[2017-01-09 19:09:01] StanTheMan : those were fun times
[2017-01-09 19:09:02] QuantFocus : MikeHunt: so your absolute prediction about 80k got "stone walled" by a botnet, but you're confident that your $400 prediction can't be manipulated, right?
[2017-01-09 19:09:14] MikeHunt : sleger: it scared me away from finex, stuck with stamp/btce
[2017-01-09 19:09:29] StanTheMan : stamp got hacked. btce randomly goes down
[2017-01-09 19:09:51] sleger : wow he predicted finex hack years before it happened !
