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.

People in Russia are generally more encyclopedically knowledgeable than in US, and this is sort of important to me [2017-01-11 01:14:47] shiroe : Bull confirmed. :D [2017-01-11 01:26:34] micmix : rapidtrades: I don't remember bitmex numbers exactly but it was like 4 coins profit on jan 5, 3.5 loss on jan 6 or something like that [2017-01-11 01:29:11] Adriana : rapidtrades: the most important, only few people use fucking Facebook here [2017-01-11 01:44:36] micmix : Adriana: they use vk or odnoklassniki, same thing [2017-01-11 01:50:23] Adriana : micmix: you can't compare vk to facebook. VK does not have a misanthropic interface, but has a lot of useful staff like any kind of music, audibooks and educational communities [2017-01-11 01:52:43] Adriana : micmix: odnoklassniki is normally used by older people (35+ crowd) [2017-01-11 01:53:52] micmix : I'm not very familiar with either but odnoklassniki looks very similar to facebook at first glance. and facebook is for older people too ;-) [2017-01-11 01:54:31] premium_freak : micmix: I understand you're an algorithmic trader - is it your fulltime gig?

They're all orders for 8000 contracts that appear and suddenly disappear [2017-01-11 02:29:25] anonymous123421 : maybe it's just a MM bot, but it's interesting [2017-01-11 02:35:05] micmix : anonymous123421: it's a bug in someone's bot, it's supposed to post 1 8k quote [2017-01-11 02:35:56] anonymous123421 : are you sure it isn't layering the orderbook? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layering_(finance) [2017-01-11 02:36:33] anonymous123421 : I dunno, it looks like it to me but I'm not an expert [2017-01-11 02:36:55] anonymous123421 : Interesting regardless [2017-01-11 02:37:26] Apocalyptic : micmix: it is 1 orders [2017-01-11 02:37:42] Apocalyptic : he's just amending the price quickly, like 5 times/sec [2017-01-11 02:37:57] Apocalyptic : at least that's what I saw [2017-01-11 02:38:35] lockhedge : more likely it would be quote stuffing not layering, but it seems that it's just two bots (5000 and 8000) which outbid each other within some milliseconds [2017-01-11 02:38:52] lockhedge : Apocalyptic: agree, it seems to be an rendering problem, only one 8000 order [2017-01-11 02:39:43] anonymous123421 : Interesting stuff [2017-01-11 02:48:19] micmix : lockhedge: yeah, could be related to orderbook animation in UI. in any case bot developer should add some throttling or enforce min order rest time [2017-01-11 02:55:17] Rado : I hate the MM quoting 5000 :-) [2017-01-11 02:55:41] chatTroll : why? [2017-01-11 02:55:44] Rado : he has some goo dlogic [2017-01-11 02:55:50] Rado : good logic [2017-01-11 02:56:04] Rado : always in front of me [2017-01-11 02:56:04] chatTroll : seems like it's working [2017-01-11 02:56:09] Rado : yeah [2017-01-11 02:59:46] Rado2 : lockhedge: @micmix Do you guys get this issue? Realtime data connection unexpectedly closed [2017-01-11 03:07:34] lockhedge : Rado2: it's extremely hard to get a 100% reliable websocket connection, i'm using rest calls as backup and check which data is more up-to-date [2017-01-11 03:08:18] Rado2 : lockhedge: isn't that slow? [2017-01-11 03:08:45] Rado2 : how often do you make a call? [2017-01-11 03:08:58] Rado2 : I had it every second, but reduced to every 2 sec [2017-01-11 03:11:10] Rado2 : 5k and 8k guys fighting again [2017-01-11 03:12:58] lockhedge : Rado2: i make some calls (e.g. my position) before every order, some every few seconds. for pricing data i add a "latency premium" when i fear to have old data or have to update very frequently and might hit rate limits, so it gets less sensitive. [2017-01-11 03:14:10] Rado2 : I did have instances where I think I was getting old data and the bot placed orders it shouldn't have [2017-01-11 03:15:25] Rado2 : looks like the logic of the 5k MM and the 8k MM is conflicting [2017-01-11 03:19:25] Rado2 : It's amazing how volatility dropped huge after a crazy few days [2017-01-11 03:19:39] Rado2 : people don't have energy for more? [2017-01-11 03:22:43] anonymous123421 : Judging by these MM bots behavior it looks like it would be easy to manipulate them into buying for more or selling for less. Not that I would do that, but just an observation. [2017-01-11 03:27:31] micmix : Rado2: I found that ws connection is very reliable but you have to make sure you can detect disconnect quickly and use REST as backup while you're disconnected. [2017-01-11 03:31:35] kilrari : Do you guys also algo trade more traditional markets? [2017-01-11 03:31:50] Rado2 : micmix: thanks [2017-01-11 03:33:13] Rado2 : kilrari: Nah, once you go crypto you never come back :-) [2017-01-11 03:35:45] kilrari : Is it because these markets are smaller but a lot more technical? [2017-01-11 03:37:27] kilrari : Or more because of volatility? [2017-01-11 03:37:44] Apocalyptic : more retail players [2017-01-11 03:38:08] Apocalyptic : and less bot competitions, wider spreads etc [2017-01-11 03:38:16] lockhedge : kilrari: on traditional markets information inequality is too high, you have to invest a lot in low latency data feeds, co-location before you can test if your model can compete [2017-01-11 03:38:47] lockhedge : Apocalyptic: spreads/liquidity in bitcoin is comparable with small/mid cap equities [2017-01-11 03:38:47] kilrari : Ah ok [2017-01-11 03:46:29] Rado2 : lockhedge: are there many periods like this one where not much trading is going on? [2017-01-11 03:46:52] Rado2 : before I have the bot I wasn't paying close attention to volatility etc [2017-01-11 03:50:14] lockhedge : usually volatility and volume closely correlate, here (and on other markets that offer margin trading) even more than on spot markets [2017-01-11 03:52:14] micmix : if you want to do lots of volume regardless of volatility try cny markets like okc and btcc. you'll be able to trade against in-house bots [2017-01-11 03:53:16] micmix : but it's a shark-infested world out there, much harder to make money than here ;-) [2017-01-11 03:54:36] Rado2 : cool [2017-01-11 03:55:03] Rado2 : still have a lot of work to do to try the shark-infested world :-) [2017-01-11 03:55:38] Rado2 : also they don't pay commissions like here [2017-01-11 03:55:56] Rado2 : spreads are a lot smaller I guess as well [2017-01-11 03:56:47] Rado2 : At one point BTCE was trading in par with Western exchanges [2017-01-11 03:56:51] micmix : yep, that's why it's much easier here [2017-01-11 03:56:59] Rado2 : now constantly $30 below [2017-01-11 04:00:02] Rado2 : Wikileaks founder Julian Assange used data from the blockchain as a "proof of life" during a Reddit ask-me-anything session today. [2017-01-11 04:01:30] Rado2 : Assange responded in a livestreamed talk, calling the theories "silly" and confirming that the video wasn't prerecorded by reading off the most recent block hash (a string of letters and numbers, unique to block 447506 on the bitcoin blockchain). [2017-01-11 04:08:47] lockhedge : Rado2: yet another proof that bitcoin was invented by the CIA ;) [2017-01-11 04:09:26] Rado2 : it makes a lot of sense that they did [2017-01-11 04:09:36] Rado2 : that's why government is not doing anything about it [2017-01-11 04:09:41] Rado2 : they need it for later [2017-01-11 04:11:01] shiroe : Why point at the government?
