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

[2017-02-28 03:57:03] datboiyuan : it'd be much harsher than $20
[2017-02-28 03:57:12] -_- : give the impression they will for the pump. then dump and change their minds. buy low. then approve it in 6 months when the winkletwins reapply
[2017-02-28 03:57:31] datboiyuan : hmmm
[2017-02-28 03:57:40] ayy_lmao : 2 much conspiracy
[2017-02-28 03:57:41] -_- : stamp dumping again
[2017-02-28 03:57:43] ayy_lmao : not enough chart
[2017-02-28 03:57:57] datboiyuan : there are 2 other rtfs slated for decision
[2017-02-28 03:58:29] rapidtrades : yea gl with that
[2017-02-28 03:58:32] mtourig3 : -_-: thats just a orderbook gap
[2017-02-28 03:58:59] -_- : stamp has no buy orders till 1178.
[2017-02-28 03:59:11] -_- : just 1 that flashes sometimes
[2017-02-28 03:59:36] -_- : finex has a bunch of high longs that could panic close in a dump
[2017-02-28 03:59:44] -_- : china has no issues with dumping
[2017-02-28 04:00:09] longbydefault : nobody knows really...
[2017-02-28 04:00:30] longbydefault : everyone acts like they know...
[2017-02-28 04:01:13] Tetsuo : quarterlys almost back at backwardation@stamp
[2017-02-28 04:01:27] cookielito : longbydefault: as long as they arnt academics

[2017-02-28 04:01:43] -_- : good luck longs
[2017-02-28 04:01:43] cookielito : longbydefault: I have no problem with people acting like they know
[2017-02-28 04:02:56] longbydefault : cookielito: me too... just an observation
[2017-02-28 04:03:06] mtourig3 : now is the time to buy
[2017-02-28 04:03:11] mtourig3 : imo
[2017-02-28 04:03:24] cookielito : longbydefault: I really dislike academics especially when it comes to trading
[2017-02-28 04:03:31] rapidtrades : LORD THEY WERE WARNED
[2017-02-28 04:03:36] Tetsuo : FEELS GOOD MAN

[2017-02-28 04:04:15] -_- : i wouldnt long bitmex. get stuck in a long with empty order book in a dump...i'd buy the dip when you know dump is over and it's bouncing
[2017-02-28 04:04:16] cookielito : rapidtrades: No way in hell im shorting
[2017-02-28 04:04:17] cookielito : thoigh
[2017-02-28 04:04:21] rapidtrades : BUT REST OF LONGS DIDN'T LISTEN
[2017-02-28 04:04:41] rapidtrades : THE LORD WILL SMITE THEM SOON
[2017-02-28 04:04:45] mtourig3 : -_-: already did that
[2017-02-28 04:04:45] cookielito : rapidtrades: This is going to be very very very interesting
[2017-02-28 04:04:56] cookielito : rapidtrades: Name a bottom
[2017-02-28 04:05:24] datboiyuan : 0
[2017-02-28 04:05:36] -_- : 1060 would be where i say the bottom is on bitfinex / stamp if this dumps
[2017-02-28 04:05:53] -_- : so like 1000 on bitmex
[2017-02-28 04:05:55] -_- : or under

[2017-02-28 04:06:07] MikeHunt : 1160 on okc qrt
[2017-02-28 04:06:18] MikeHunt : unless they wanna crash this pre-ETF
[2017-02-28 04:06:21] cookielito : rapidtrades: Good god man
[2017-02-28 04:06:53] MikeHunt : could also be 1060
[2017-02-28 04:06:59] MikeHunt : depends how deep they wanna go
[2017-02-28 04:07:47] cookielito : MikeHunt: Im thinking deep
[2017-02-28 04:08:06] cookielito : MikeHunt: And im typically bullish as hell
[2017-02-28 04:08:14] nourozi : Hi, can anyone tell me why the testnet.bitmex charts are way different to the bitmex.com charts? How can we realistically paper trade and test a strategy if the test vs live are totally different?
[2017-02-28 04:08:40] javierstone : u ever dry hump cordiroy?
[2017-02-28 04:08:58] javierstone : nourozi: ever?
[2017-02-28 04:09:25] arbitrage101 : another chance to buy da dip
[2017-02-28 04:09:26] MikeHunt : anyone tried cryptotrader.com ?
[2017-02-28 04:09:31] BitMEX_John : nourozi: testnet is good for learning how the exchange works, calculations, automated trading integrations etc
[2017-02-28 04:09:40] .. : AFAIK you are just paper trading against other paper traders? Best to just test your strategy with small money here
[2017-02-28 04:09:56] MikeHunt : yeh or blow $4k like i did here
[2017-02-28 04:09:58] MikeHunt : fml
[2017-02-28 04:11:45] cookielito : MikeHunt: your not alone
[2017-02-28 04:11:55] cookielito : MikeHunt: but noverall life is good man
[2017-02-28 04:11:58] nourozi : I see, so developing a backtesting platform and testing the strategy against historical data would produce very similar results to live trading?
[2017-02-28 04:13:02] vgck : nourozi: Historical data is missing the currect events fundamental aspect you get when trading live
[2017-02-28 04:13:12] vgck : Paper would even be better I think
[2017-02-28 04:13:38] MikeHunt : cookielito: was it worth it in the end thou? do you earn now?
[2017-02-28 04:13:49] nourozi : Ok, I think I will just use testnet to make sure the strategy is working correctly and then use minimal amounts of money to test on bitmex live account
[2017-02-28 04:13:51] cookielito : MikeHunt: absolutely
[2017-02-28 04:14:01] MikeHunt : cookielito: how much total did it cost you?
[2017-02-28 04:14:04] cookielito : MikeHunt: you always need to lose big to learn how to trade an asset
[2017-02-28 04:14:11] cookielito : MikeHunt: 4.5 btc
[2017-02-28 04:14:19] MikeHunt : my total loss is 8.6BTC
[2017-02-28 04:14:37] cookielito : MikeHunt: stay away from high leverage
[2017-02-28 04:14:42] ayy_lmao : yes
[2017-02-28 04:14:45] MikeHunt : cookielito: whats the max u do?
[2017-02-28 04:14:45] cookielito : MikeHunt: it turns this into a casino
[2017-02-28 04:14:56] cookielito : MikeHunt: 10 in dire situations
[2017-02-28 04:15:23] mtourig3 : MikeHunt: you get margin called?
[2017-02-28 04:15:37] rapidtrades : if ur not consistently profitable just trade 1 contract
[2017-02-28 04:15:50] BitMEX_John : nourozi: best of luck, if you have any further questions please don't hesitate to contact us
[2017-02-28 04:15:50] MikeHunt : mtourig3: no i didnt let it get that far but i over the course of a few dozen trades i was down
[2017-02-28 04:16:28] vgck : rapidtrades: $1? Why not just testnet at that point?
[2017-02-28 04:16:30] rapidtrades : no point trading size if u don't have an edge, ur just gambling
[2017-02-28 04:16:32] MikeHunt : worst trade was a 4BTC loss
[2017-02-28 04:16:35] nourozi : BitMEX_John: Thanks!
[2017-02-28 04:16:50] rapidtrades : vgck: cos its not the same
[2017-02-28 04:16:51] MikeHunt : looking back i feel like a complete idiot
[2017-02-28 04:18:33] vgck : MikeHunt: Are you doing any better now?
[2017-02-28 04:18:36] ZsaZsaCrypto : Maybe as an idea write down each loss and the mistake made with how much it cost you... Then you'll have a nice investment in a book of trading lessons
[2017-02-28 04:18:39] cookielito : MikeHunt: are you done losing?
[2017-02-28 04:19:50] MikeHunt : cookielito: i hope so
[2017-02-28 04:19:52] -_- : dang price bounced again
[2017-02-28 04:20:10] cookielito : MikeHunt: Know so
[2017-02-28 04:20:26] cookielito : MikeHunt: get that cold blood running
[2017-02-28 04:20:49] cookielito : MikeHunt: and stay humble
[2017-02-28 04:20:55] -_- : guess a few more hours before the dump
[2017-02-28 04:21:13] cookielito : -_-: chinks need to go to lunch first
[2017-02-28 04:21:51] cookielito : no offense to my chinese brethren
[2017-02-28 04:21:52] vgck : -_-: Or maybe dump is over?
[2017-02-28 04:22:21] rapidtrades : PAYDAY
[2017-02-28 04:22:23] MikeHunt : prob see at least 1160-1170 on h17
[2017-02-28 04:22:42] -_- : seems bots have come back
[2017-02-28 04:22:58] -_- : they will slowly buy price back up like good little bots
[2017-02-28 04:23:02] vgck : MikeHunt: Sounds about right to me
[2017-02-28 04:23:13] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 5590 @ 1187.76
[2017-02-28 04:23:21] MikeHunt : considering how quickly i lost here im almost scared to put anymore back in
[2017-02-28 04:23:29] MikeHunt : maybe just stick to stamp or get a cryptotrader bot
[2017-02-28 04:23:32] vgck : Then dont
[2017-02-28 04:23:45] vgck : Leverage isnt really the problem
[2017-02-28 04:23:47] -_- : MikeHunt: you lost money on that dump and dpump
[2017-02-28 04:23:56] vgck : If you have trouble here same will happen at stamp
[2017-02-28 04:24:04] MikeHunt : the pump to 1280 killed my 4BTC i had left
[2017-02-28 04:24:10] MikeHunt : on stamp i made money
[2017-02-28 04:24:13] -_- : oh
[2017-02-28 04:24:19] datboiyuan : MikeHunt: you don't have money here?
[2017-02-28 04:24:26] datboiyuan : you just hang out in the troll box?
[2017-02-28 04:24:26] MikeHunt : about 70$ left
[2017-02-28 04:24:34] datboiyuan : oh I see
[2017-02-28 04:24:34] vgck : Ouch
[2017-02-28 04:24:36] rapidtrades : vgck: leverage is a major problem
[2017-02-28 04:24:47] MikeHunt : yeh i think im too impulsive with lvg
[2017-02-28 04:25:05] -_- : gotta increase leverage to make back the losses
[2017-02-28 04:25:31] abbey : more REKTs
[2017-02-28 04:25:40] Tetsuo : rapidtrades: i sold the other 50% of my cold storage in the last days, almost 120BTC. i have only 30 left for trading. I don´t regret it
[2017-02-28 04:25:41] -_- : well i didnt make back everything i lost yet
[2017-02-28 04:25:48] -_- : if i longed the dip under 1200 i may have
[2017-02-28 04:25:52] rapidtrades : abbey ur butt will be cracked soon!
[2017-02-28 04:26:13] -_- : Tetsuo: you sold and bought eth
[2017-02-28 04:26:18] rapidtrades : Tetsuo: seems like a prudent decision
[2017-02-28 04:26:28] abbey : rapidtrades: havent heard that one before, lol
[2017-02-28 04:26:37] Tetsuo : -_-: nah i cashed out for USD, but 25BTC have been converted to ETH , that´s right
[2017-02-28 04:26:38] MikeHunt : prob buy about $350 worth of eth tomorrow or when it corrects sufficiently
[2017-02-28 04:26:43] arbitrage101 : stick with wining stragegy @MikeHunt
[2017-02-28 04:26:52] arbitrage101 : buy da dip have never fail once
[2017-02-28 04:27:04] -_- : i feel like i will be at computer for next 5 hours waiting for the big move. hope i'm not disappointed
[2017-02-28 04:27:08] arbitrage101 : work every got damn time
[2017-02-28 04:27:35] rapidtrades : wow that selling
[2017-02-28 04:27:40] MikeHunt : arbitrage101: yeh i just gotta watch out for the walls
[2017-02-28 04:28:16] MikeHunt : i longed 1180 and then it collapsed
[2017-02-28 04:28:18] MikeHunt : had to bail
[2017-02-28 04:28:20] MikeHunt : lost a bit there
[2017-02-28 04:28:44] arbitrage101 : what bail
[2017-02-28 04:28:50] MikeHunt : sell off
[2017-02-28 04:28:51] arbitrage101 : it is not 1190
[2017-02-28 04:28:54] arbitrage101 : now
[2017-02-28 04:28:55] vgck : Why not just wait it out? Was gonna come back eventually
[2017-02-28 04:29:18] arbitrage101 : what is your position compare to your size
[2017-02-28 04:29:26] arbitrage101 : capital i mean
[2017-02-28 04:29:50] MikeHunt : arbitrage101: i mean wen it was 1180 about an hour ago
[2017-02-28 04:30:34] arbitrage101 : should learn how to trade before risking much capital
[2017-02-28 04:30:48] MikeHunt : arbitrage101: yep, expensive lesson learnt
[2017-02-28 04:31:01] abbey : lots of traders get rekt by these swings, not me. Happy days!
[2017-02-28 04:31:38] MikeHunt : i think in future ill keep a small amount here just to play with until i learning good and rest at stamp with a bot
[2017-02-28 04:31:41] Tetsuo : I really like this statement: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C5VU7yxUkAAE9_W.jpg
[2017-02-28 04:32:02] micmix : bitcoin was super easy to trade since mid of 2014. just buy the dips with low leverage
[2017-02-28 04:32:28] arbitrage101 : micmix: 20/20 hindsight
[2017-02-28 04:32:40] arbitrage101 : not so easy to trade now, in my view
[2017-02-28 04:33:04] micmix : no hindsight, all you need is to look at 1w long-term MA
[2017-02-28 04:33:23] MikeHunt : micmix: and now?
[2017-02-28 04:33:27] MikeHunt : the same or?
[2017-02-28 04:33:31] micmix : still the same
[2017-02-28 04:33:40] rapidtrades : bullshit
[2017-02-28 04:34:03] MikeHunt : maybe i can turn $70 into $7k
[2017-02-28 04:34:04] arbitrage101 : trading based on induction logic can be dangerous
[2017-02-28 04:34:27] arbitrage101 : but worked so far this year
[2017-02-28 04:35:11] abbey : yeah, the trend is ur friend
[2017-02-28 04:35:17] micmix : MikeHunt: you can't, you will not survive the dips with higher leverage
[2017-02-28 04:35:45] abbey : micmix: exactly
[2017-02-28 04:35:50] rapidtrades : all trends end with a major reversal/crash
[2017-02-28 04:36:04] rapidtrades : so using low leverage will not save u
[2017-02-28 04:36:11] MikeHunt : micmix: i mean doing it with sensible leverage over time
[2017-02-28 04:36:18] rapidtrades : u will lose profits from multiple trades when it happens
[2017-02-28 04:36:21] micmix : rapidtrades: yep, and you need to scale out of your position on the way up
[2017-02-28 04:36:28] arbitrage101 : there is no sensible leverage
[2017-02-28 04:36:36] vgck : If they price crashes far enough you can still be liquidated on lowest leverage
[2017-02-28 04:36:37] rapidtrades : ok, again hindsight is 20/20
[2017-02-28 04:36:47] MikeHunt : sounds like im fucked either way
[2017-02-28 04:37:00] cryptillian : all in x100 is the only way
[2017-02-28 04:37:00] arbitrage101 : mp ca[ital \\, dont trade
[2017-02-28 04:37:10] vgck : cryptillian: +1
[2017-02-28 04:37:21] arbitrage101 : if you dont have capital, dont trade
[2017-02-28 04:37:30] rapidtrades : WRONG
[2017-02-28 04:37:49] arbitrage101 : do brokering to save some capital
[2017-02-28 04:37:56] abbey : rapidtrades: the trend isnt reversing anywhere
[2017-02-28 04:37:59] cryptillian : NO
[2017-02-28 04:38:12] rapidtrades : abbey: watch ur butt abbey!
[2017-02-28 04:38:36] micmix : arbs are safer than trend following, I can't argue with that
[2017-02-28 04:38:47] arbitrage101 : safer == less profit
[2017-02-28 04:39:10] cryptillian : sad
[2017-02-28 04:39:25] arbitrage101 : no free lunch in anything
[2017-02-28 04:39:36] arbitrage101 : you want to profit a lot, then you need to risk a lot
[2017-02-28 04:39:42] cryptillian : all is rekt
[2017-02-28 04:39:50] cryptillian : life is rekt
[2017-02-28 04:40:12] abbey : rapidtrades: My butt is safe, I know how to use stops. And my stops give me profit, how about ur short, how much negative already?
[2017-02-28 04:40:38] Tetsuo : how do these stops work out in flash crashes
[2017-02-28 04:40:46] cryptillian : 70% i thinkl
[2017-02-28 04:42:38] arbitrage101 : Tetsuo: wont work at all
[2017-02-28 04:45:46] vgck : So looks like the dump is over right? Now we retest ATH, or?
[2017-02-28 04:46:17] abbey : short more the bull market bears, and its all going to be just fine.
[2017-02-28 04:48:45] -_- : still going to dump $130 soon
[2017-02-28 04:49:46] MikeHunt : ~1050

[2017-02-28 05:22:53] abbey : some others think it can't
[2017-02-28 05:25:14] noah sark : why is it that when using isolated margin at 100x leverage my position will liquidate after about a 0.5% ($6) run in the opposite direction? I thought it should liquidate after a 1% ($12) run?
[2017-02-28 05:28:17] BitMEX_John : noah sark: your liquidation price allows enough margin that our engine can close your position without incuring a loss

[2017-02-28 05:37:23] -_- : and make everything back
[2017-02-28 05:37:34] -_- : i knew i should have waited for the dip but gave up waiting 10 seconds for the dump
[2017-02-28 05:38:23] noah sark : does the liquidation price ever change based on the amount of btc in the insurance fund or anything else? I swear a while ago I was getting pretty much exactly what I thought I should be getting. eg. if btc was $1000, with leverage 10x my liquidation would be $900, but now today it would be sitting around $915 for the same order.
[2017-02-28 05:38:58] -_- : eth going back up
[2017-02-28 05:39:06] -_- : once 0.0135 breaks...
[2017-02-28 05:39:14] noah sark : for a long order
[2017-02-28 05:39:24] BitMEX_John : noah sark: liquidation price is uneffected by the size of the insurance fund
[2017-02-28 05:39:36] Tetsuo : -_-: there are no words on how bullish i am on ETH
[2017-02-28 05:39:40] Rado : noah sark: it's based on mark price and what you have in your account
[2017-02-28 05:39:53] Rado : if you have less BTC now the liqudation price will be higher
[2017-02-28 05:40:29] -_- : Tetsuo: any inside info
[2017-02-28 05:41:10] noah sark : I only use isolated margin (set leverage) though, I thought that the liquidation price shouldn't change then based on what you have in your account
[2017-02-28 05:41:11] Tetsuo : -_-: BTC failin? Intel, JPMorgan and Microsoft agreein on usin ETH?
[2017-02-28 05:41:41] -_- : meh not like they actually buy and use ETH.
[2017-02-28 05:41:57] -_- : just bought $25 worth of Bitcoin and the suggested fee was $1.66! That's 6.6%. Who can seriously claim this isn't broken?
[2017-02-28 05:42:03] Tetsuo : they have chosen the crypto of the future
[2017-02-28 05:42:05] Rado : noah sark: what do you think covers your trade?
[2017-02-28 05:42:15] Tetsuo : -_-: it is
[2017-02-28 05:42:19] Rado : it's the BTC you have
[2017-02-28 05:42:27] Rado : if you don't have any you can't place a trade
[2017-02-28 05:42:55] BitMEX_John : noah sark: it also depends on the margin requirements for a contract
[2017-02-28 05:43:16] BitMEX_John : noah sark: some contracts have a higher margin requirement than others
[2017-02-28 05:46:36] BitMEX_John : noah sark: also you are corrected that in an isolated margin scenario your margin requirement is static and won't change depending on your account balance
[2017-02-28 05:47:40] BitMEX_John : correct*
[2017-02-28 05:48:11] MikeHunt : if ETF fails, game over for btc imo
[2017-02-28 05:48:24] MikeHunt : the game of thrones will begin
[2017-02-28 05:48:28] blackwhite : Bitmex, sort by price doesn't work in Active Orders. Kinda tries to sort in parts, but doesn't in general.
[2017-02-28 05:49:33] BitMEX_John : blackwhite: sorry about that, would you mind sending through a screenshot to support@bitmex.com so we can fix?
[2017-02-28 05:50:23] Tetsuo : BitMEX_John: plz make ETHMEX happen soon, we are in a desperate need for a ETH/USD product
[2017-02-28 05:51:20] BitMEX_John : Tetsuo: I'll pass this feedback onto the team :)
[2017-02-28 05:51:21] noah sark : BitMEX_John: Thank you, I think I understand now, I was thinking that the liquidation price should have been the bankruptcy price, but then there
[2017-02-28 05:51:34] noah sark : there wouldn't be anything for the insurance fund
[2017-02-28 05:52:26] BitMEX_John : noah sark: that's correct, when you are liquidated if the position can be closed at a better price than your bankruptcy price the difference is sent to the insurance funds
[2017-02-28 05:55:49] blackwhite : BitMEX_John: sure
[2017-02-28 05:58:52] elmorte : true, it does a lexicographic sort..
[2017-02-28 06:00:59] elmorte : legacy from 3-digit BTC
[2017-02-28 06:01:14] blackwhite : elmorte: for me it isn't lexicographic if you have both buy and sell... something weird
[2017-02-28 06:01:27] elmorte : oh k...yeah, mine are all long
[2017-02-28 06:01:37] elmorte : lemme see
[2017-02-28 06:03:04] elmorte : Mine still is....1xxx, 5xxx, 8xx, 9000, 9xx
[2017-02-28 06:03:05] BitMEX_John : blackwhite: thanks for sending that through
[2017-02-28 06:04:50] -_- : Lol okc

[2017-02-28 06:12:02] Taco : Hey how do i change to quarterly?
[2017-02-28 06:12:28] elmorte : https://www.bitmex.com/app/trade/XBTH17
[2017-02-28 06:12:32] BitMEX_John : Taco: Click on March 31 under the Bitcoin XBT tab
[2017-02-28 06:13:48] Taco : BitMEX_John: and where do i see hte Bitcoin XBT tab? sorry im new here
[2017-02-28 06:14:08] ayy_lmao : above the chart
[2017-02-28 06:14:20] BitMEX_John : Taco: its at the top left hand corner of the page under 'Trade'
[2017-02-28 06:14:26] Taco : I see, thx!
[2017-02-28 06:14:29] BitMEX_John : Taco: and welcome to BitMEX :)
[2017-02-28 06:15:57] Taco : BitMEX_John: Thanks! And how come if i have an open trade, and on the far left hand of scren it says the mark price is 1229.48, but on my open trade it has the mark price at 1195.89?
[2017-02-28 06:16:13] elmorte : Taco: different instruments
[2017-02-28 06:16:20] elmorte : 1195 is swap
[2017-02-28 06:17:52] Taco : BitMEX_John: Ok and lastly why is the risk % changing on its own?
[2017-02-28 06:18:49] BitMEX_John : Taco: the risk %?
[2017-02-28 06:19:04] Taco : Yes like 1x 2x 3x 5x , up to 100x
[2017-02-28 06:19:08] Taco : BitMEX_John: Yes like 1x 2x 3x 5x , up to 100x
[2017-02-28 06:19:17] Taco : BitMEX_John: it's moving on its own
[2017-02-28 06:19:17] BitMEX_John : Taco: that's the leverage
[2017-02-28 06:19:27] Taco : BitMEX_John: Yes how come it changes on its own if i set it to 100x?
[2017-02-28 06:20:04] BitMEX_John : Taco: I'm not sure I understand what you mean by changing on its own, you are trying to open a position?
[2017-02-28 06:20:40] Taco : BitMEX_John: I already have an open position set at 100x. Then i looked at the leverage and it had changed by its self to like 20x, instead of 100x like i had
