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.

[2017-02-21 07:01:30] etoque : time to rekt those little boi
[2017-02-21 07:01:32] alejandromasari : BTCDJS: how's that short working for u lol
[2017-02-21 07:01:54] BTCDJS : this level is kinda easy
[2017-02-21 07:02:02] BTCDJS : ThruTheFloor:
[2017-02-21 07:02:33] BTCDJS : there isn't a lot of resistance. The resistance is st ATH
[2017-02-21 07:03:06] BTCDJS : alejandromasari: my short got LIQed but my long is healthy
[2017-02-21 07:03:19] ThruTheFloor : So stay in until 1040-1060 then start shorting?
[2017-02-21 07:03:22] BTCDJS : thanks for asking
[2017-02-21 07:03:29] ThruTheFloor : How much did your liq cost you?
[2017-02-21 07:03:38] BTCDJS : ThruTheFloor: ATH is 1175
[2017-02-21 07:04:06] ThruTheFloor : Oh, I'm looking at Stamp charts
[2017-02-21 07:04:06] BTCDJS : ThruTheFloor: it was 50x so not much
[2017-02-21 07:04:36] BTCDJS : ThruTheFloor: I didn't open a short till 1090
[2017-02-21 07:05:09] BTCDJS : there was a good chance we could've retraced from there. But we didn't
[2017-02-21 07:05:20] ThruTheFloor : Sucks, hit you so quick too. At least you didnt lost too much
[2017-02-21 07:05:36] ThruTheFloor : Yeah, I've been expecting a retrace since 1000, but Bitcoin has other plans lol
[2017-02-21 07:06:41] BTCDJS : so I opened a long too on swap. I had to go to sleep because I work so I woke up this morning with a long in profi
[2017-02-21 07:07:47] ThruTheFloor : Is that something you usually do? Hedge your shorts and longs? Don't the profits and losses cancel each other out?
[2017-02-21 07:08:28] Ugly_Old_Goat : ThruTheFloor: You can play the spread
[2017-02-21 07:08:44] BTCDJS : ThruTheFloor: it's possible we are looking at the chart in log scale mode. Instead of going up in $ we've been going up in % if that's the case we break ATH and have a new bubble
[2017-02-21 07:09:03] Ugly_Old_Goat : March was trading 30 under past six weeks , now 20 over
[2017-02-21 07:09:24] BTCDJS : ThruTheFloor: you can have one position on march and one on swap
[2017-02-21 07:09:53] ThruTheFloor : So go long on the cheaper one and short the more expensive one?
[2017-02-21 07:10:20] ThruTheFloor : How likely is a bubble without any news from China or SEC? I'm baffled we even got this high in our current situation
[2017-02-21 07:10:20] Ugly_Old_Goat : ThruTheFloor: Don't play the spread unless you understand it. Some only spread, some only go net, some of us do both
[2017-02-21 07:10:20] aethlios : march is cheaper now.
[2017-02-21 07:11:30] Ugly_Old_Goat : Perp has large fuding coming that is why it is at such discount to March
[2017-02-21 07:11:51] ThruTheFloor : Ugly_Old_Goat: I'm really only doing this part time, checking the price while I'm at work, etc. Where's can I learn more about the spread? Just start googling or can you recommend a good source?
[2017-02-21 07:12:20] BTCDJS : https://twitter.com/whalecalls/status/833932864643268608
[2017-02-21 07:12:24] Ugly_Old_Goat : ThruTheFloor: No good source. I have studied markets for years
[2017-02-21 07:12:31] aethlios : sleger is a good source.
[2017-02-21 07:12:39] Ugly_Old_Goat : It is a function of interest rate
[2017-02-21 07:12:48] BTCDJS : Does that entertain you?
[2017-02-21 07:13:28] Ugly_Old_Goat : We had a huge opportunity when China upvalued and market went into huge backwardation
[2017-02-21 07:13:44] Ugly_Old_Goat : Back to normal now.
[2017-02-21 07:14:24] ThruTheFloor : backwardation is when the futures are cheaper than the spot, right?
[2017-02-21 07:14:49] Ugly_Old_Goat : yup
[2017-02-21 07:15:03] l3f : City of hard pumps

[2017-02-21 07:15:25] Ugly_Old_Goat : Lots of morons here were bearish because they don't understand it
[2017-02-21 07:15:27] blacktuesday : 1150 next stop
[2017-02-21 07:15:42] l3f : approaching orbital velocity
[2017-02-21 07:16:58] Ugly_Old_Goat : Look at Jan 4 and just before crash march was 150 over perp, which was insane. I dumped all lolngs that day at 1140 and started buying back at 876 all the way down to 715. Today I dumped 40% of my lolngs
[2017-02-21 07:17:22] Ugly_Old_Goat : If we break I buy them back. If we keep going up that is fine too
[2017-02-21 07:17:42] Ugly_Old_Goat : Do not get greedy, be well funded, buy dips, sell rallies
[2017-02-21 07:18:11] Ugly_Old_Goat : I both the diips all week and sold the rally today
[2017-02-21 07:19:13] longbydefault : do you ever make a wrong move?
[2017-02-21 07:19:44] ThruTheFloor : So, what breakout price are you looking at right now? What's the resistance? What indicator are you looking at, if any?
[2017-02-21 07:19:54] Ugly_Old_Goat : Also lightning up caiise going the the Acapulco Conference on Friday. Don't want to have a large position while traveling
[2017-02-21 07:20:01] Ugly_Old_Goat : But will keep my core longs
[2017-02-21 07:20:33] Ugly_Old_Goat : ThruTheFloor: Seat of pants and many years experience
[2017-02-21 07:21:07] l3f : longbydefault: it's hard to make the wrong move in a bull market when the best strat is buy and hold
[2017-02-21 07:21:19] Ugly_Old_Goat : Managing your money is the key. You do not have to be a good trader if you manage your account well
[2017-02-21 07:21:55] Ugly_Old_Goat : Read the book The Art of Execution . Kindle edition on Amazon
[2017-02-21 07:22:09] longbydefault : ok i willl try to look into that book...
[2017-02-21 07:22:41] Ugly_Old_Goat : He divides traders into 3 categories, rabbits, assasins, and huntes
[2017-02-21 07:23:04] longbydefault : sounds interesting
[2017-02-21 07:23:16] Ugly_Old_Goat : Most traders are rabbits. Assasins and hunters win. I am a hundint assasin
[2017-02-21 07:24:06] Ugly_Old_Goat : We could go much higher before we break
[2017-02-21 07:24:16] l3f : Most traders are pigs
[2017-02-21 07:24:19] l3f : bulls and bears win
[2017-02-21 07:25:04] Ugly_Old_Goat : But when we do break we should go to about 1060-1080
[2017-02-21 07:25:25] longbydefault : that's good news...
[2017-02-21 07:25:51] Tetsuo : 0.3003 in 12 hours
[2017-02-21 07:25:56] Ugly_Old_Goat : No, most are rabbits. The scurry abut, make small gains and take huge losses
[2017-02-21 07:26:33] Ugly_Old_Goat : Read the book. It is exellent. Takes about 2 hours to read. Quick easy and exceelent
[2017-02-21 07:26:35] l3f : Ugly_Old_Goat: Interesting book recommendation
[2017-02-21 07:26:36] l3f : anything else?
[2017-02-21 07:26:44] ubba : does anyone know the exact date
[2017-02-21 07:26:53] ubba : chinese exchanges open up btc withdrawals
[2017-02-21 07:27:02] Ugly_Old_Goat : That is it for starters You must learn the principles in that book first
[2017-02-21 07:27:40] longbydefault : already bought... :)
[2017-02-21 07:28:50] Ugly_Old_Goat : Money managment (what I call strategy) is the key. Timing (tactics) are secondary. You can have excellent tactics but you will lose without money management. You can have terrible tacitics and still be very successful the the correct strategy (money management)
[2017-02-21 07:30:36] ubba : so if you bought at the top in 2013 and held all the way up until now
[2017-02-21 07:30:51] ubba : you have bad tactics and good money management?
[2017-02-21 07:31:31] longbydefault : uhmmm... i think the point is not to put all your money in one trade... buying back at a low can save you from a bad move
[2017-02-21 07:32:19] micmix : ubba: 'never' is the exact date
[2017-02-21 07:32:39] ubba : lol

[2017-02-21 10:47:39] BTCDJS : MikeHunt: no it's not
[2017-02-21 10:48:09] fulrik : Okay. Probably should have taken my leveraged trade elsewhere then
[2017-02-21 10:48:19] BTCDJS : fulrik: yeah polo is better
[2017-02-21 10:49:00] bingbongfly : fulrik: its' a tradeoff
[2017-02-21 10:49:05] bingbongfly : here you get higher leverage
[2017-02-21 10:49:09] bingbongfly : but less liquidity
[2017-02-21 10:49:16] fulrik : I don't trust POLO
[2017-02-21 10:49:21] bingbongfly : also the contracts expire..
[2017-02-21 10:49:30] BTCDJS : fulrik: why?
[2017-02-21 10:49:33] bingbongfly : I have no succes on 7d contracts

[2017-02-21 10:50:13] BTCDJS : All Alts are insider
[2017-02-21 10:50:49] fulrik : Well leverage is great but anything above 10x is suicide anyway
[2017-02-21 10:51:04] BTCDJS : True
[2017-02-21 10:51:21] BTCDJS : i still go for 50x sometimes
[2017-02-21 10:51:21] MikeHunt : BTCDJS: whats not?
[2017-02-21 10:51:39] fulrik : BTCDJS: I would only do that if I had really really good knowledge
[2017-02-21 10:51:41] BTCDJS : MikeHunt: 800 hard to get to
[2017-02-21 10:52:43] MikeHunt : BTCDJS: what i mean is he might get liq-ed b4 he sees that
[2017-02-21 10:52:55] fulrik : Sad thing I closed my BTC long last night. That would have been great to wake up to
[2017-02-21 10:53:16] BarefootFlash : fulrik: Same...
[2017-02-21 10:53:29] MikeHunt : yeh but whats better, wake up to loss, or wake up to small gain?
[2017-02-21 10:53:35] BarefootFlash : But, better than the alternative. ie went to sleep and it dropped
[2017-02-21 10:53:43] BarefootFlash : MikeHunt: Exactly
[2017-02-21 10:53:50] BTCDJS : fulrik: I am stupid sometimes. But I 50x usually when I'm very confident. I stupidly tried to short from 950 (50% retrace from dump after rally) I never short. 50x and I got burned
[2017-02-21 10:54:02] fulrik : MikeHunt: True. But that is what stoplosses are for
[2017-02-21 10:54:12] MikeHunt : fulrik: true
[2017-02-21 10:54:14] BTCDJS : MikeHunt: he's got a lot of money.
[2017-02-21 10:54:39] fulrik : BTCDJS: But I guess you learned a lesson. I don't experience much like with shorting either. My mindset is too positive ;-)
[2017-02-21 10:55:03] fulrik : BTCDJS: .... Besides that one time where OASIS shut down and triggered a panic selloff of XMR. Easy money.
[2017-02-21 10:56:02] MikeHunt : BTCDJS: was that from trading or job? cuz u mentioned he was short b4 i think and got it majorly wrong

[2017-02-21 10:59:00] MikeHunt : yeh ive learned that the hard way
[2017-02-21 10:59:13] fulrik : MikeHunt: The only way
[2017-02-21 10:59:15] BTCDJS : TA traders minimise risk in a different way.

[2017-02-21 11:20:46] wurstgelee : BitMEX_Sam: yes
[2017-02-21 11:21:04] BitMEX_Sam : But there are cases in which refreshing gives you a different value?
[2017-02-21 11:21:07] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 1000 @ 1101.50
[2017-02-21 11:21:09] wurstgelee : if i trigger something, it updates. just doesnt do it itself
[2017-02-21 11:21:12] BitMEX_Sam : It should only go up if you are in profit
[2017-02-21 11:21:20] wurstgelee : refreshing always gives me the correct value
[2017-02-21 11:21:34] wurstgelee : but that value doesnt update until next refresh or levereage adjustment
[2017-02-21 11:21:49] wurstgelee : or adding or closing part iirc
[2017-02-21 11:22:03] BitMEX_Sam : It is in my testing, see testnet
[2017-02-21 11:22:21] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 25000 @ 1103.14
[2017-02-21 11:22:21] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 900 @ 1103.03
[2017-02-21 11:22:25] BitMEX_Sam : I will take a closer look but I believe it is working properly and your expectation of what it should show may be incorrect
[2017-02-21 11:22:27] wurstgelee : i have no testnet bitcoins iirc
[2017-02-21 11:22:41] wurstgelee : BitMEX_Sam: it shows a different value after f5
[2017-02-21 11:22:43] wurstgelee : ;)
[2017-02-21 11:22:45] BitMEX_Sam : I'll transfer you some
[2017-02-21 11:22:49] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah, that is perplexing
[2017-02-21 11:23:14] wurstgelee : also it updates in different brwosers.... Positiions Tab, "Margin" Field. Should update as prices moves, right?
[2017-02-21 11:24:10] BitMEX_Sam : You now have 3 XBT on testnet
[2017-02-21 11:24:16] BitMEX_Sam : It should only update if you are in profit
[2017-02-21 11:24:34] Fito : /price
[2017-02-21 11:24:35] trollbot : Bitstamp: 1112.00 (0.63%)
[2017-02-21 11:24:35] BitMEX_Sam : As that profit is bound to the position (and thus in `margin`) until close
[2017-02-21 11:24:35] trollbot : Bitfinex: 1115.0 (0.41%)

[2017-02-21 11:27:53] l3f : not our okchina gods
[2017-02-21 11:28:03] paper : as planned, took maybe 25% off the table in lower 1100's and letting the rest ride in case of something crazy like 1500usd pre-announcement
[2017-02-21 11:28:30] Dynamix : Time to short hehe
[2017-02-21 11:28:43] aethlios : l3f: china is out of the game, and i think any china "bad news" will have no effect from now on.

[2017-02-21 11:29:50] Dynamix : It has to drop back to 10770's ;)

[2017-02-21 11:31:11] Dynamix : paper: wall on bfx on buy looks thin
[2017-02-21 11:31:19] Dynamix : we might see a drop to 1090's again hehe
[2017-02-21 11:31:20] Dynamix : /wall

[2017-02-21 11:32:54] paper : Dynamix: right on. i'm cross too. someone on here made a good point earlier when they said cross should be the default setting
[2017-02-21 11:32:56] l3f : aethlios: I'm afraid that if it keeps pumping this hard it will dump twice as hard
[2017-02-21 11:33:07] BitMEX_Sam : wurstgelee: Can confirm the leverage value not updating until refresh
[2017-02-21 11:33:09] BitMEX_Sam : Thanks, will add a ticket

[2017-02-21 11:33:39] l3f : same issue as last time
[2017-02-21 11:33:58] MikeHunt : res points iirc are: 1080 -> 1100 -> 1125 -> 1150 -> moon
[2017-02-21 11:33:59] paper : well, we could be starting to see the largest btc short squeeze in history, as one of my mentors said was likely in the cards (been in the game for years myself tho ofc)
[2017-02-21 11:34:08] BitMEX_Sam : l3f: That one I'm not seeing
[2017-02-21 11:34:20] MikeHunt : 1180*
[2017-02-21 11:34:20] BitMEX_Sam : On testnet, try adding a last price stop then pinging the price up & down with market orders
[2017-02-21 11:34:23] aethlios : l3f: whan new ATH happens, a new bull market begins.
