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.

[2017-02-22 02:16:23] BarefootFlash : ThruTheFloor: Get a better idea of how the market moves, what people are thinking. Small gains, then compound.

[2017-02-22 02:17:55] BarefootFlash : ThruTheFloor: Yeah, don't listen to them. There's tons of differing opinions about how things work. Then there's just luck.
[2017-02-22 02:18:12] BarefootFlash : ThruTheFloor: Chances are you're going to lose, so always be ready for it.
[2017-02-22 02:18:14] ronensinger : I might arbitrage the futures

[2017-02-22 03:05:10] BitMEX_John : thxforyourbtc!: no, the 'change' is put toward the insurance fund https://www.bitmex.com/app/insuranceFund
[2017-02-22 03:05:49] BitMEX_John : thxforyourbtc!: if you are liquidated you will lose all the margin allocated to that position
[2017-02-22 03:05:51] etoque : ubba: haah

[2017-02-22 03:08:02] mxtrad342 : when leveraging... what does cross means?

[2017-02-22 03:08:48] thxforyourbtc! : i only see a pink line and normal price
[2017-02-22 03:08:51] BitMEX_John : mxtrad342: cross means you are setting your entire available account balance as margin
[2017-02-22 03:08:55] sleger : I dont get this one
[2017-02-22 03:09:15] YOLOCOIN : milk long funds then dump
[2017-02-22 03:09:19] mxtrad342 : ahhhh thanks @BitMEX_John
[2017-02-22 03:10:02] BitMEX_John : thxforyourbtc!: what is the label (right hand side of the graph) of this pink line?
[2017-02-22 03:10:28] thxforyourbtc! : XBT
[2017-02-22 03:10:51] sleger : BitMEX_John: It says "chicken farm" is that a good label ?
[2017-02-22 03:11:22] degen : oh snap you guys try the dark theme? me likey
[2017-02-22 03:12:33] mxtrad342 : degen: thanks, this is lovely
[2017-02-22 03:12:49] BitMEX_John : thxforyourbtc!: great that line represents the index price, which the mark price is based on
[2017-02-22 03:13:14] thxforyourbtc! : why is it so much different?
[2017-02-22 03:14:11] rangle : fomo
[2017-02-22 03:14:36] BitMEX_John : thxforyourbtc!: the index price is based on the price at other exchanges, currently it is 50/50 based on Bitstamp and OKCoin USD
[2017-02-22 03:14:59] thxforyourbtc! : i mean the mark price is normal, just the XBT line is very low. I was wondering if there is a chart of just the mark price
[2017-02-22 03:15:24] degen : BitMEX_John: any plans to reduce the woodchipper's weight?
[2017-02-22 03:15:45] degen : given their volume decrease?
[2017-02-22 03:17:15] BitMEX_John : degen: if there is a decision made on this there will be an announcement, there has been discussion about this as obviously there has been some concern from traders
[2017-02-22 03:17:45] degen : BitMEX_John: good to hear you guys are discussing it
[2017-02-22 03:17:45] thxforyourbtc! : where can i find the woodchipper
[2017-02-22 03:18:06] sleger : In the woods
[2017-02-22 03:19:02] thxforyourbtc! : i mean the exchange...
[2017-02-22 03:19:16] BitMEX_John : thxforyourbtc!: here is a graph of just the XBT index https://www.bitmex.com/app/index/.XBT

[2017-02-22 03:22:29] cryptokeeper : yup
[2017-02-22 03:23:01] BarefootFlash : Not super glad I shorted too early, but at least I get that
[2017-02-22 03:23:42] Sultan Pepper : Did thatceoguy die?
[2017-02-22 03:24:18] BarefootFlash : Sultan Pepper: I don't think so. His liq was around 1200
[2017-02-22 03:24:26] Sultan Pepper : Oh ok
[2017-02-22 03:24:32] BarefootFlash : Unless he lowered his margin and got out with whatever was left
[2017-02-22 03:24:46] Sultan Pepper : He'll be fine
[2017-02-22 03:24:57] BarefootFlash : You don't think it's going up that high?
[2017-02-22 03:25:04] Sultan Pepper : For some period of time
[2017-02-22 03:25:18] Sultan Pepper : between 1 minute and 5 years
[2017-02-22 03:25:46] BarefootFlash : Haha
[2017-02-22 03:26:01] Sultan Pepper : BarefootFlash: for the record, no. But i wont put a short on it
[2017-02-22 03:26:04] cryptokeeper : yeah that is crazy his first trade 10btc
[2017-02-22 03:26:11] cryptokeeper : what can ya do.... we all learn
[2017-02-22 03:26:17] Sultan Pepper : i have low buys though
[2017-02-22 03:26:47] BarefootFlash : Yeah, same
[2017-02-22 03:26:56] BarefootFlash : Well, minus the not having a short already
[2017-02-22 03:27:09] Sultan Pepper : GL!
[2017-02-22 03:27:32] BarefootFlash : I'm not in deep enough to start working both perp and futures, but maybe after this little session I'll start :)
[2017-02-22 03:27:39] Sultan Pepper : I hope you're right, im itchin to get into a good position
[2017-02-22 03:27:44] BarefootFlash : Haha, thanks.
[2017-02-22 03:28:12] BarefootFlash : I caught some good breaks when those knives dropped
[2017-02-22 03:28:46] BarefootFlash : We'll just see what happens
[2017-02-22 03:29:03] Sultan Pepper : I like cooking my trades like I cook my boeuf bourginon. Long, slow, and tasty
[2017-02-22 03:29:46] Sultan Pepper : This hype shit is too much like TV cooking shows for me
[2017-02-22 03:29:56] BarefootFlash : I don't trust the market enough for any intentional long-term positions
[2017-02-22 03:30:11] Sultan Pepper : I do
[2017-02-22 03:30:32] BarefootFlash : Prefer short-term small profits, but tend to get stuck in positions when the price moves a bunch
[2017-02-22 03:30:54] Sultan Pepper : Yeah i tried that and got burned too many times
[2017-02-22 03:30:58] BarefootFlash : Dang
[2017-02-22 03:31:16] Sultan Pepper : i found my success lies in the mid-term
[2017-02-22 03:31:31] BarefootFlash : Being around how long?
[2017-02-22 03:31:45] Sultan Pepper : Whatchu mean?
[2017-02-22 03:32:05] BarefootFlash : Like days, weeks? mid-term
[2017-02-22 03:33:00] Sultan Pepper : Oh, 2-3 weeks has been good to me. I'm looking longer now though. I've only been at this for a few months now
[2017-02-22 03:33:13] BarefootFlash : I think when I understand the market better and trader psychology, I might start moving to more mid- to long-term positions
[2017-02-22 03:33:42] Sultan Pepper : the chop is what was killing me
[2017-02-22 03:33:48] BarefootFlash : what's that?
[2017-02-22 03:33:49] Sultan Pepper : too erratic
[2017-02-22 03:34:07] BarefootFlash : what's the chop?
[2017-02-22 03:34:44] Sultan Pepper : all the up-down ebb and flow over the day
[2017-02-22 03:34:50] Ugly_Old_Goat : Please pay me for the privilege of being long Perp in 25 minutes. Thank you for your support
[2017-02-22 03:35:01] Sultan Pepper : Sometimes i could nail it, but not enough
[2017-02-22 03:35:27] BarefootFlash : Ah
[2017-02-22 03:35:35] BarefootFlash : I love the horizontal market
[2017-02-22 03:35:45] Sultan Pepper : everything "insignifigant"
[2017-02-22 03:35:49] Sultan Pepper : noise
[2017-02-22 03:36:19] BarefootFlash : Tiny profits on every up and down. The patterns are easy to follow
[2017-02-22 03:36:48] BarefootFlash : But when you go bigger scale, there's a lot more to it, and Im' not confident enough yet
[2017-02-22 03:36:57] Sultan Pepper : Until they jostle you out. Maybe you're better at it though. Keep it up if you are
[2017-02-22 03:37:09] gnx100 : china about to announce a sanction on btc. just a heads up
[2017-02-22 03:37:12] Sultan Pepper : and dont get greedy
[2017-02-22 03:37:16] MikeHunt : gnx100: source?
[2017-02-22 03:37:22] BarefootFlash : Yeah, the problem is getting stuck in a position, like now, haha
[2017-02-22 03:37:23] Sultan Pepper : MikeHunt: thx
[2017-02-22 03:37:32] Sultan Pepper : BarefootFlash: yep
[2017-02-22 03:37:59] BarefootFlash : Might be able to start using futures to offset though. Seems like a good strategy
[2017-02-22 03:38:09] Sultan Pepper : BarefootFlash: i've learned to keep a nice safety net. I like sleeping at night
[2017-02-22 03:38:26] BarefootFlash : Haha, thus the get in and get out quick for me
[2017-02-22 03:39:09] Sultan Pepper : BarefootFlash: if you buy into march now, you'll lower your liq point on swap.
[2017-02-22 03:39:17] Sultan Pepper : If you're on cross
[2017-02-22 03:39:24] Sultan Pepper : I think
[2017-02-22 03:39:35] BarefootFlash : No extra atm. All my extra margin is here
[2017-02-22 03:39:40] BarefootFlash : on perp
[2017-02-22 03:40:13] Sultan Pepper : Where is your break even point?
[2017-02-22 03:40:34] sleger : -2500$ish
[2017-02-22 03:40:35] BarefootFlash : When this is over, I'll be lowering my position amounts. Trading with much less contracts at a time
[2017-02-22 03:40:56] BarefootFlash : I moved it up to 1086
[2017-02-22 03:41:07] ronensinger : sleger: Lol
[2017-02-22 03:41:17] Sultan Pepper : If we dip, you should close half
[2017-02-22 03:41:29] BarefootFlash : Yep. Limits set
[2017-02-22 03:41:29] ronensinger : sleger: Do you trade only bitcoin?

[2017-02-22 03:43:33] ronensinger : Sultan Pepper: I've heard it can be profitable
[2017-02-22 03:43:42] ronensinger : Are there still a lot of CSGO casinos?
[2017-02-22 03:44:04] Sultan Pepper : ronensinger: i traded up for a while, but found the real profit in arbitrage of keys
[2017-02-22 03:44:19] ronensinger : Sultan Pepper: Smart guy
[2017-02-22 03:44:30] Sultan Pepper : buying from bots and selling on websites
[2017-02-22 03:44:43] ronensinger : Sultan Pepper: How much do you trade with?
[2017-02-22 03:44:48] ronensinger : Here at bitmex
[2017-02-22 03:45:44] aeos : Sultan Pepper: arb of keys?
[2017-02-22 03:45:56] Sultan Pepper : not much. 1.08 total, but i only keep a quarter of my holding here

[2017-02-22 03:46:37] BarefootFlash : for a position
[2017-02-22 03:47:16] Sultan Pepper : aeos: yeah. Buy from bots at 2.1 usd in btc per key, trade for "better" keys, sell keys on website for 2.28 each
[2017-02-22 03:48:06] aeos : Sultan Pepper: sry i'm ingnorant of what keys are
[2017-02-22 03:48:09] ronensinger : BarefootFlash: What;s yours?
[2017-02-22 03:49:01] Sultan Pepper : BarefootFlash: i like holding 5x long. I have some room down if necessary, then i'll average down at 10x and sell off half when we get back to my break even
[2017-02-22 03:49:03] BarefootFlash : I started with 1k contracts, then moved up to 2k after some good horizontal trading, then up to 5k.
[2017-02-22 03:49:19] BarefootFlash : Sultan Pepper: So how many contracts?
[2017-02-22 03:49:27] ronensinger : BarefootFlash: Nice
[2017-02-22 03:49:28] BarefootFlash : Like 1k-ish?
[2017-02-22 03:49:29] Sultan Pepper : aeos: its a CS:GO thing
[2017-02-22 03:49:49] Sultan Pepper : BarefootFlash: right now i'll hold 1300

[2017-02-22 03:51:45] Sultan Pepper : aeos: im out of the game and will spill all my secrets if you want
[2017-02-22 03:51:51] aeos : Sultan Pepper: how to make a few buck with that
[2017-02-22 03:52:04] Sultan Pepper : thxforyourbtc!: yes you have, good job
[2017-02-22 03:52:29] Sultan Pepper : thxforyourbtc!: i pride myself in being a p ussy
[2017-02-22 03:52:55] BarefootFlash : Sultan Pepper: I also am extremely risk-averse
[2017-02-22 03:52:57] BarefootFlash : Haha
[2017-02-22 03:53:23] Sultan Pepper : aeos: well start by playing a little cs:go and browsing /r/globaloffensivetrade
[2017-02-22 03:53:40] Sultan Pepper : to get the feel for the territory
[2017-02-22 03:54:13] Sultan Pepper : Make an account there, but figure out how to not seem like an idiot when you start trading
[2017-02-22 03:54:16] aeos : Sultan Pepper: ok, but you have to play cs go in order to win ? =D
[2017-02-22 03:54:30] Sultan Pepper : aeos: nah
[2017-02-22 03:54:46] Sultan Pepper : aeos: but it helps to know what it's about at least
[2017-02-22 03:54:58] thxforyourbtc! : yeah the last trade was actually not expected to survive
[2017-02-22 03:55:00] aeos : Sultan Pepper: true
[2017-02-22 03:55:44] thxforyourbtc! : i cashed out 2.4 and let something like 0.05 or 0.1 or so ride out 100x like almost 0 room in liq to mark and i woke up couldnt believe it
[2017-02-22 03:55:58] Sultan Pepper : Cases are shit drops. Keys open cases and cost $2.5 from the in-game store. You almost always get bullshit from cases. You can trade your keys for good skins
[2017-02-22 03:56:20] Sultan Pepper : thxforyourbtc!: it's been a nice bull run
[2017-02-22 03:57:00] thxforyourbtc! : yes it was very lucky it didnt lick tho
[2017-02-22 03:57:14] Sultan Pepper : aeos: ooooor you can buy cheap keys from (hopefully not sketchy) bots for btc
[2017-02-22 03:57:27] Sultan Pepper : at a variable rate
[2017-02-22 03:57:47] thxforyourbtc! : Sultan Pepper: still ahvent closed and have since added with profits
[2017-02-22 03:57:51] aeos : Sultan Pepper: please show me sensei
[2017-02-22 03:57:53] Sultan Pepper : they also buy at a variable rate, so theoretically you could just arb the bots
[2017-02-22 03:58:11] thxforyourbtc! : re-ramp the lev
[2017-02-22 03:58:47] Sultan Pepper : but you should take your keys to a website and list them at the right time for the right price, over and over, until they sell
[2017-02-22 03:59:11] Sultan Pepper : aeos: then withdraw funds and repeat
[2017-02-22 04:00:15] startChat : yummy funding
[2017-02-22 04:00:27] Sultan Pepper : aeos: it became too tedious for me, but certainly can be profitable with virtually no risk
[2017-02-22 04:00:43] BarefootFlash : Yay payday! Not-yay, early short
[2017-02-22 04:00:55] BarefootFlash : Alright, time for class. Peace and good luck!
[2017-02-22 04:01:37] aeos : Sultan Pepper: so whats the purpuse of keys in the game?
[2017-02-22 04:02:07] Sultan Pepper : aeos: to open cases, but they're the running currency of traders
[2017-02-22 04:02:27] Sultan Pepper : becauses cases are shit
[2017-02-22 04:02:32] startChat : BarefootFlash: if you are not comfortable with you risk. Do something about it now.
[2017-02-22 04:02:35] aeos : Sultan Pepper: how you buy keys form bots?
[2017-02-22 04:02:50] ronensinger : Goodnight guys
[2017-02-22 04:03:05] BarefootFlash : startChat: I am
[2017-02-22 04:03:28] Sultan Pepper : aeos: befriend a trusty bot, send it btc, ask for a trade that includes however many keys you can afford
[2017-02-22 04:04:09] Sultan Pepper : you have to set up a steam account and go through like 10 days of not being able to trade first
[2017-02-22 04:04:36] Sultan Pepper : mobile confirmation of all trades
[2017-02-22 04:04:45] Sultan Pepper : scam proofing
[2017-02-22 04:05:13] aeos : Sultan Pepper: any way i can contact you for directions =D?
[2017-02-22 04:05:14] Sultan Pepper : but it's still easy to get scammed if you're dumb, or dumb to the territory
[2017-02-22 04:05:26] Sultan Pepper : aeos: nope, sorry
[2017-02-22 04:05:55] aeos : Sultan Pepper: not at all, so can i still ask you questions?
[2017-02-22 04:06:36] Sultan Pepper : aeos: absolutely, do it in the chinese box though
[2017-02-22 04:25:25] YOLOCOIN : Milk milk
