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.

You have access to more than 50 million trollbox posts. This is more than 7 gigabyte of data hosted on a $5 server so please be patient or consider a donation

[2017-02-21 16:22:01] coyotejoe : KyllingLolsson: why
[2017-02-21 16:22:07] herpinator : coyotejoe: 100x is not good try 10x, risk is too great
[2017-02-21 16:22:22] coyotejoe : already did it, rapidtrades told me to

[2017-02-21 16:23:59] herpinator : coyotejoe: when I started here I did 50x (the max at the time) and I was actually successful for a while but then I got wiped out and re-evaluated my strategy. coyote don't listen to rapidtrades he is always wrong somehow. In fact a viable trading strategy here is to actually do the opposite of what rapidtrades says.
[2017-02-21 16:24:09] -_- : wow 1121 users here
[2017-02-21 16:24:22] KyllingLolsson : coyotejoe: i suggest u sell... And the-open whatever posirion but this ttimw x25
[2017-02-21 16:24:23] herpinator : coyotejoe: think of it this way with 50x you have 2% margin of error before you get margin called, with 100x its 1%
[2017-02-21 16:24:41] herpinator : KyllingLolsson: I would agree
[2017-02-21 16:24:58] coyotejoe : sell market or sell limit? and what quantitiy

[2017-02-21 17:03:00] Investbtc : Hi Guys,how do I bet 5 btc that the COIN ETF will be successfull
[2017-02-21 17:03:04] troll5000 : I make pretty much as much going up as coming down
[2017-02-21 17:03:40] Investbtc : I'm new to all this
[2017-02-21 17:03:43] herpinator : Investbtc: trade COIN
[2017-02-21 17:04:00] herpinator : Investbtc: why do you think it will be successful?
[2017-02-21 17:04:08] Investbtc : Yes but how many contracts can I buy?
[2017-02-21 17:04:29] Investbtc : Because I'm Irish and feel lucky!

[2017-02-21 17:05:26] herpinator : Investbtc: around 1500
[2017-02-21 17:05:38] BTCDJS : CutTheLosses: so if you go short swap and long futures and price goes up significantly you make double?
[2017-02-21 17:05:59] troll5000 : Well here's my thinking
[2017-02-21 17:06:04] troll5000 : And yes
[2017-02-21 17:06:10] Investbtc : Do I buy long? What will I return if I buy 1500 contracts at 34.75?
[2017-02-21 17:06:35] longbydefault : /joke
[2017-02-21 17:06:40] troll5000 : So we know price swings are big right? We know the price grows over time and drops suddenly
[2017-02-21 17:06:47] trollbot : Cigarette warnings should also include how dangerous it is just going to purchase a package... My dad left 19 years ago to buy some and he still hasn't made it back.
[2017-02-21 17:07:01] troll5000 : We just don't know when it will drop
[2017-02-21 17:07:40] troll5000 : So at the bottom of a large fast down move, I buy a large position long on the future and hold.
[2017-02-21 17:07:46] longbydefault : /joke
[2017-02-21 17:07:54] trollbot : Love is like looking for a parking spot Everything good is taken and it's frowned upon to go into the handicapped ones.
[2017-02-21 17:08:06] troll5000 : And a smaller short swap position when the funding rate turns in the shorts favor

[2017-02-21 17:08:36] troll5000 : I take profit from the long position
[2017-02-21 17:09:17] troll5000 : And continue to short swaps around the funding timestamps to collect the funding up the price move
[2017-02-21 17:09:56] Investbtc : Would I buy market or limit?
[2017-02-21 17:10:05] Investbtc : Please help me Guys!!

[2017-02-21 17:10:34] troll5000 : This collects the funding interest, moves me into a short position with a high entry price towards the top of a price move. Wait for drop, short position becomes positive.
[2017-02-21 17:10:39] coyotejoe : how much do you guys think ETH will grow in long run?
[2017-02-21 17:10:43] ronensinger : Tetsuo: I appreciate the enouragement of market orders, Tetsuo
[2017-02-21 17:11:15] troll5000 : Just watch your margins and make sure you don't get liquidated
[2017-02-21 17:11:35] Investbtc : Thanks Tetsuo
[2017-02-21 17:11:41] Tetsuo : you´re welcome
[2017-02-21 17:11:45] troll5000 : If you know volatility you should know how big possible move's are
[2017-02-21 17:13:05] Investbtc : Sorry Tetsuo, I'm being stupid. How many contracts could I buy for 5 btc market is 36.50?
[2017-02-21 17:13:23] Investbtc : What would that return if the bet came in?
[2017-02-21 17:13:50] Apocalyptic : Investbtc: use the calculator
[2017-02-21 17:14:14] GTmann : Investbtc: the help page on that coin explains it real good

[2017-02-21 17:16:36] ronensinger : Apocalyptic: But my account is relatively small

[2017-02-21 17:16:53] Apocalyptic : that's wise

[2017-02-21 17:22:36] Apocalyptic : ronensinger: you will kill your spread big time
[2017-02-21 17:22:51] ronensinger : anonymous123421: You can't. There is always some exposure
[2017-02-21 17:22:54] Apocalyptic : why would you risk that
[2017-02-21 17:23:00] ronensinger : Apocalyptic: My spread is on average 0.01 anyways and
[2017-02-21 17:23:19] Apocalyptic : micmix: ^^ see
[2017-02-21 17:23:29] ronensinger : Apocalyptic: Micmix is smarter than me tho
[2017-02-21 17:23:36] ronensinger : He figured out how to MM with a larger spread
[2017-02-21 17:23:37] Apocalyptic : I told you there is ONE bot quoting a tick spread
[2017-02-21 17:23:52] ronensinger : Apocalyptic: There are a lot of disadvanatges
[2017-02-21 17:23:58] Apocalyptic : yeah I'm referring to a previous discussion we had
[2017-02-21 17:23:59] ronensinger : I'm changing mine to me more like micmix's
[2017-02-21 17:24:13] anonymous123421 : ronensinger: so how do you ensure a lower exposure? create more orders on the side that will reduce it?
[2017-02-21 17:24:41] Apocalyptic : ronensinger: afaik micmix doesn't quote such a tight spread
[2017-02-21 17:24:59] ronensinger : Apocalyptic: Yep. He'd staggered. So am I
[2017-02-21 17:25:11] ronensinger : But he staggers at a much larger interval than me
[2017-02-21 17:25:20] Apocalyptic : ronensinger: more room for you :)
[2017-02-21 17:25:29] ronensinger : Apocalyptic: Not always a good thinkg
[2017-02-21 17:25:52] Apocalyptic : well I wouldn't quote something so tight either
[2017-02-21 17:25:53] ronensinger : Some bot keeps trading in blocks of 25k
[2017-02-21 17:26:14] Apocalyptic : that's the "designated" MM
[2017-02-21 17:26:30] ronensinger : They must be getting paid a higher rebate to take on that much risk
[2017-02-21 17:26:33] Apocalyptic : and according to micmix it's not him
[2017-02-21 17:27:03] ronensinger : Apocalyptic: It's some london hedge fund

[2017-02-21 17:42:10] BTCDJS : Ugly_Old_Goat: is it possible to make a profit shorting swap in a bull market then get LIQed
[2017-02-21 17:43:02] BTCDJS : Ugly_Old_Goat: or do you have to be long H17 at the same time for it to be profitable
[2017-02-21 17:43:11] BTCDJS : say from 900
[2017-02-21 17:43:20] thomaskikansha : short 1x to collect funding yes
[2017-02-21 17:43:20] Ugly_Old_Goat : BTCDJS: Not sure what you are asking
[2017-02-21 17:44:41] thomaskikansha : BTCDJS: you wont get MCed if you short 1x
[2017-02-21 17:44:46] BTCDJS : Ugly_Old_Goat: shorts get funding right. I have heard a couple times now that you get paid if you're short swap but you have to get LIQed plus you receive the +funding
[2017-02-21 17:44:46] ubba : so the annoucement is at 4 pm EST?
[2017-02-21 17:44:54] Coconuter : green dildo

[2017-02-21 17:45:21] ubba : yeah regarding ETF
[2017-02-21 17:45:23] BTCDJS : thomaskikansha: but the method says you have to get LIQed
[2017-02-21 17:45:36] ubba : will there be a livestream does anyone know?
[2017-02-21 17:45:42] Ugly_Old_Goat : BTCDJS: Long or shorts can get funding. Positive is for shorts, negative for longs
[2017-02-21 17:45:57] troll5000 : BTCDJS: no you don't
[2017-02-21 17:45:57] BTCDJS : Ugly_Old_Goat: I mean in a bull market
[2017-02-21 17:46:01] ThruTheFloor : ubba: You said the exact same thing yesterday, fcuk off
[2017-02-21 17:46:17] troll5000 : BTCDJS: no no no
[2017-02-21 17:46:17] j8 : BTCDJS: when the premium / discount is huge you might be better off getting liq'd, but for the most part you should just exit cleanly
[2017-02-21 17:46:24] Ugly_Old_Goat : I do not know what you mean you have to get LIQed
[2017-02-21 17:46:46] Ugly_Old_Goat : Any position at funding time receives or pays funding
[2017-02-21 17:46:58] ubba : no i didnt
[2017-02-21 17:47:15] BTCDJS : j8: right so your in a bull rally. It's manic. Way above spot. You get LIQed. You get paid
[2017-02-21 17:47:49] j8 : you get paid as long as you can hold it, and then you get liq'd and don't have to exit at a big premium
[2017-02-21 17:48:05] j8 : and can maybe even re-enter at a big premium
[2017-02-21 17:48:40] reyno : ubba: uh oh ubba

[2017-02-21 17:49:52] BTCDJS : j8: is this easy to do? Like for this rally. If I was short 1x from 900 and my LIQ was at 1100 I would get all the +funding plus the premium after getting LIQed? So shorting is profitable?
[2017-02-21 17:50:11] Ugly_Old_Goat : Did very well while asseep. All my shot perps bot covered under 1080 plus went long
[2017-02-21 17:50:15] ubba : well do you guys just think its a coincidence that there will be an announcement today and the price is pumping
[2017-02-21 17:50:26] rustiv : ubba: source pls
[2017-02-21 17:50:29] rustiv : (or gtfo)
[2017-02-21 17:50:31] ubba : its quite obvious they are correlated
[2017-02-21 17:50:41] Ugly_Old_Goat : Just sold the longs and went short again at 1103 to collect funding
[2017-02-21 17:50:52] ubba : rustiv someone said here in chat last night
[2017-02-21 17:50:58] j8 : BTCDJS: well usually the funding you receive is less than the loss from shorting. but you would probably have a profit in USD terms
[2017-02-21 17:51:06] ubba : its been confirmed by 3 people
[2017-02-21 17:51:25] Ugly_Old_Goat : Still net long, but sold out 50% of my position

[2017-02-21 17:52:01] ubba : ripidtrades
[2017-02-21 17:52:31] BTCDJS : j8: so why do people short one and long the other? Is it for the reason of making profit being long and short?
[2017-02-21 17:52:44] BTCDJS : At the same time
[2017-02-21 17:52:48] ubba : this is the highest bitcoin has ever risen

[2017-02-21 17:53:59] j8 : BTCDJS: i guess you can call it a rates arbitrage. futures will way outperform the swap in a bull market
[2017-02-21 17:54:03] ubba : quite it is
[2017-02-21 17:54:47] ubba : n00b do you know if there will be a livestream of the announcement?
[2017-02-21 17:54:55] BTCDJS : j8: I get the sense that's what sleger does
[2017-02-21 17:55:07] MrRGnome : Anyone member the days when people doubted we'd ever see $1000 again? I member.
[2017-02-21 17:55:09] ubba : later on today
[2017-02-21 17:55:12] j8 : like if you bought the swap a few days ago, you paid some funding. if you bought H17, you got like 2% premium
[2017-02-21 17:55:31] reyno : ubba: your putting the troll in the troll box here
[2017-02-21 17:55:35] j8 : BTCDJS: he does, and so do i and many others
[2017-02-21 17:55:47] CutTheLosses : it's gonna dump

[2017-02-21 17:55:58] ubba : need to change my name people aren't taking me serious anymore

[2017-02-21 17:56:02] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBCH17`: buy 1600 @ 7677.3
[2017-02-21 17:56:04] BTCDJS : j8: how many contracts at what leverage is the best?
[2017-02-21 17:56:07] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 1500 @ 1110.85
[2017-02-21 17:56:13] j8 : it can backfire horribly though if futures go to discount and the swap funding goes negative
[2017-02-21 17:56:33] ubba : here we go
[2017-02-21 17:56:41] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 1000 @ 1112.75

[2017-02-21 17:56:57] Apocalyptic : j8: like in a downward movement
[2017-02-21 17:57:08] BTCDJS : j8: I understand that. I realise I would have to choose the right directions
[2017-02-21 17:57:20] Ugly_Old_Goat : Just sold some march aove 1142
[2017-02-21 17:57:22] guacamole : this is ridiculous, wanted to cash out my short but it's a runaway train
[2017-02-21 17:57:37] Ugly_Old_Goat : Wow. what a rally,
[2017-02-21 17:57:44] ThruTheFloor : Calling the top, 50x short, #yolo
[2017-02-21 17:57:52] BTCDJS : j8: so would you say on a risk scale from 1-10 how risky is it?
[2017-02-21 17:57:58] CutTheLosses : it will blow up
[2017-02-21 17:58:00] ubba : guacamole hedge it with a long
[2017-02-21 17:58:04] BTCDJS : 10 being bad
[2017-02-21 17:58:10] CutTheLosses : first leaving the saloon
[2017-02-21 17:58:33] CutTheLosses : and boooom
[2017-02-21 17:58:44] CutTheLosses : i can feel fear
[2017-02-21 17:59:00] ThatCEOGuy : Are we gonna crash before ATH or blow past it?
[2017-02-21 17:59:06] Ugly_Old_Goat : spread over 20
[2017-02-21 17:59:19] ubba : im gonna probably close my longs after they allow btc withdrawals from chinese sites
[2017-02-21 17:59:21] j8 : BTCDJS: hard to say. ADL is a big risk, counterparty risk, getting liquidated on a spike, not being able to move margin around fast enough, etc.
[2017-02-21 17:59:35] REKT : Liquidated long on `ETH7D`: sell 1900 @ 0.011380
[2017-02-21 17:59:49] ubba : theres gonna be a mad dash to take out coins from huobi and okcon
[2017-02-21 17:59:56] Sinterklaas : ThatCEOGuy: Past it, but on hope not on hard numbers
[2017-02-21 17:59:56] alejandromasari : I was the only long here before this rally
[2017-02-21 17:59:59] n00b : told you all o buy earlier
[2017-02-21 18:00:00] Ugly_Old_Goat : ThatCEOGuy: No one knows to you play so you win if it goes up and can buy if it crashes
[2017-02-21 18:00:02] alejandromasari : thxforyerbitcoins!!
[2017-02-21 18:00:12] bingbongfly : alejandromasari: hahaha no you wern't
[2017-02-21 18:00:24] Ugly_Old_Goat : I was able to buy the flash crash in my sleep
[2017-02-21 18:00:46] guacamole : i had buys set at 1068 that i forgot about that just missed
[2017-02-21 18:00:47] BTCDJS : j8: can you suggest a strategy that is less risk and I'll keep that one in the memory banks for when I'm more clued up
[2017-02-21 18:00:49] cookielito : TAKE THAT SHORTIES
[2017-02-21 18:00:57] Ugly_Old_Goat : I sold out a bit earcy but very nice profit and still net long 80 btc
[2017-02-21 18:02:20] j8 : BTCDJS: anything involving arbitrage has all these risks, which just means that you don't do it until the reward is big enough
[2017-02-21 18:02:46] guacamole : i'm annoyed more by the missed profit potential from 990 - 1110 i missed out on than my losses from shorting
[2017-02-21 18:03:05] BTCDJS : j8: ok. I'm going to go to school on this stuff. Thanks
[2017-02-21 18:03:22] n00b : buy this dip dont miss out
[2017-02-21 18:03:31] j8 : if you're interested in USD profit then you can just short the swap when the premium / funding is good. you might miss out on BTC upside but a lot of people are happy to take the 1% a day or whatever when it's rallying
[2017-02-21 18:04:33] guacamole : j8: the potential problem is if it then drops after you close your short and are neutral, you can still end up losing
[2017-02-21 18:04:37] BTCDJS : j8: k so how many contracts at what leverage? 1x 10k?
[2017-02-21 18:05:08] j8 : guacamole: can't blame the trade for what happens after the trade is closed
[2017-02-21 18:05:27] Ugly_Old_Goat : Payday in one hour
[2017-02-21 18:05:34] j8 : BTCDJS: 700k if you're sleger
[2017-02-21 18:05:39] mxtrad342 : Will we ever look back at < 1000 per bitcoin?
[2017-02-21 18:05:52] Ahhere : mxtrad342: yes with fondness
[2017-02-21 18:05:55] BTCDJS : j8: will 1btc be enough?
[2017-02-21 18:06:07] Ugly_Old_Goat : mxtrad342: no that is history
[2017-02-21 18:06:17] BTCDJS : margin balance
[2017-02-21 18:06:19] Ugly_Old_Goat : market reset
[2017-02-21 18:06:24] j8 : it doesn't matter how much, you're making percentage returns

[2017-02-21 18:08:09] Ahhere : sleger: why below 1m?
[2017-02-21 18:08:46] Coconuter : because its hard to find 1 million buyers to get out
[2017-02-21 18:09:06] sleger : Ahhere: because its hard to close and you represent too much of the open interest
