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

[2017-03-06 03:08:31] jose : odieoh: ETH is one of the future of crypto, indeed. But its value proposition is unique so it is not the only one. Cant compare to BTC btw
[2017-03-06 03:08:36] elmorte : micmix: I'm googling for myself, but would you know what % of pools are China-based?
[2017-03-06 03:08:57] rapidtrades : so any ETF withdrawal will happen during US business hours?
[2017-03-06 03:09:05] elmorte : 50-75% I guess if you say 1-2 months
[2017-03-06 03:09:08] Hawkeye : rapidtrades: guess so
[2017-03-06 03:09:33] Hawkeye : well denial will , withdrawel might be anytime if winkles want to
[2017-03-06 03:09:50] micmix : elmorte: different estimations, but most say 90% of hash rate is in China
[2017-03-06 03:10:03] elmorte : Yikes
[2017-03-06 03:10:33] startChat : china hashing, the real capital flight
[2017-03-06 03:10:34] elmorte : Still...the economic disincentives are massive
[2017-03-06 03:11:01] elmorte : Well, if they're paying for electricity, they're paying RMB
[2017-03-06 03:11:38] micmix : they are paying bribes to get free electricity from government-run power plants afaik
[2017-03-06 03:12:00] elmorte : still, someone in China is getting paid
[2017-03-06 03:12:11] elmorte : but I understand your point
[2017-03-06 03:12:31] elmorte : I love how I wake up Monday all ready for work, then I open Bitmex just for a look-see....*sigh*
[2017-03-06 03:13:12] micmix : who need work when bitcoin is so exciting ;-)

[2017-03-06 03:16:25] ripcord : BTC is a drop
[2017-03-06 03:20:04] elmorte : The hell is your point man? Not a mind reader
[2017-03-06 03:20:23] Felix : Will Bitcoin start trading fundamentals like political risk e.g. North Korea that just shot a projectile into the South China sea. Could Bitcoin become a safe-haven currency?
[2017-03-06 03:20:34] rullwull : If Chinese miners will be shout down hope finally Segwit may be accepted
[2017-03-06 03:22:01] rapidtrades : Felix: no

[2017-03-06 03:27:47] rapidtrades : hte one after is 0.25%, gotta sting
[2017-03-06 03:28:05] rapidtrades : I'm guessing the manipulators will try to push prices higher before that

[2017-03-06 04:12:35] Coconuter : nice ddos attack while trading
[2017-03-06 04:12:39] Coconuter : his bots kept going
[2017-03-06 04:12:47] kurkudu : Another chance to buy the dip
[2017-03-06 04:13:07] Coconuter : could see the action and numbers but couldnt click on the website
[2017-03-06 04:13:11] rowrow : Coconuter: this site lags a lot, it might have just been that
[2017-03-06 04:13:12] Coconuter : had to log from another device
[2017-03-06 04:13:30] Coconuter : yes but for sure has some background attacks
[2017-03-06 04:14:48] Sultan Pepper : Bitmex occasionally switches my (iphone) tab to "market." Thanks.
[2017-03-06 04:15:01] GTmann : They changed coin expiry date to 13
[2017-03-06 04:15:03] Sultan Pepper : Cant fool me
[2017-03-06 04:15:19] GTmann : Sorry if that's old news
[2017-03-06 04:15:46] rowrow : step 1: sell 700k+ right after funding step 2: dump markets step 3: buy back in
[2017-03-06 04:16:34] rowrow : so someone tell me how having only 2 low-medium volume exchanges in the swap index is a good idea?
[2017-03-06 04:18:08] kurkudu : rowrow: you can't dump mark price here
[2017-03-06 04:18:45] rowrow : kurkudu: i don't think you're understanding what i'm saying, you dump here, then abuse the low-liquidity index to rebuy in at a lower price
[2017-03-06 04:18:46] kurkudu : just buy the dips and roll your joints
[2017-03-06 04:19:26] rowrow : you sell at okc and bitstamp to force sells and liquidations on bitmex to rebuy
[2017-03-06 04:20:16] oz : alright not sure if bitmex just shit the bed but it just ran my market order twice lol
[2017-03-06 04:20:21] oz : wtf
[2017-03-06 04:20:25] oz : uh
[2017-03-06 04:20:34] kurkudu : Don't think someone will manipulate spot prices to liq someone here @rowrow
[2017-03-06 04:21:42] rowrow : did you not just watch what happened? that was very obviously a manipulative dump, though whether they were just abusing index here or in general isn't 100% certain
[2017-03-06 04:21:59] zeropoint : kurkudu: u must be new to this
[2017-03-06 04:22:18] .. : while I agree, I don't think he actually made money now? of course could work other times
[2017-03-06 04:22:20] kurkudu : zeropoint: check leaderboard
[2017-03-06 04:22:30] .. : seems it didnt crash as much as he/they hoped :x
[2017-03-06 04:23:54] cryptonoob : ..: not yet
[2017-03-06 04:24:11] rowrow : ..: tough to tell, depends how much they were able to buy on the dip i suppose
[2017-03-06 04:25:20] kurkudu : To get lots of rekts here you need to move spot prices least $30-$50
[2017-03-06 04:25:43] tb : so mr 700k, how much did you make?
[2017-03-06 04:27:15] kurkudu : He got funding fee from 700K and he will close long with profit later, so I suppose he can make 5-10 btc during today from this 700K
[2017-03-06 04:27:42] .. : what? his sell order was filled after funding
[2017-03-06 04:27:54] Coconuter : its a team
[2017-03-06 04:28:04] rowrow : probably
[2017-03-06 04:28:08] Coconuter : you sell i buy and get you out later
[2017-03-06 04:28:17] Coconuter : we share profits
[2017-03-06 04:28:33] Coconuter : while the other ddoss the server
[2017-03-06 04:28:56] .. : I dont think he bought into himself, even if "he" is multiple people, because it is still throwing away money
[2017-03-06 04:28:58] Coconuter : it was sleger and rapid
[2017-03-06 04:29:00] Coconuter : for sure
[2017-03-06 04:29:05] Coconuter : see how quiet they are now
[2017-03-06 04:29:13] Coconuter : lol
[2017-03-06 04:29:19] Coconuter : dude they were going to long anyway
[2017-03-06 04:29:40] Coconuter : the world wants BTC
[2017-03-06 04:29:48] Coconuter : and there only a few
[2017-03-06 04:30:13] Coconuter : 1270 is just the start of this bubble
[2017-03-06 04:30:44] kurkudu : Rapid is broke, saw him on the street last night asking for some money to short Bitcoin)
[2017-03-06 04:31:30] aeos : Coconuter: i Don't get it, it was a sell wall right? so how he got funding anyways?
[2017-03-06 04:32:26] cryptonoob : kurkudu: rent is due today, I'm buying some BTC and yolo shorting right now 100X, wish me good luck sir!
[2017-03-06 04:32:34] rowrow : it was after the funding interval, he will get no funding until the next one (7.5 hours) - assuming he didn't rebuy before then
[2017-03-06 04:33:03] Coconuter : aeos: yes you open 2 accounts sell and buy yourself later
[2017-03-06 04:33:58] kurkudu : cryptonoob: good luck, gonna collect all upcoming short rekts)
[2017-03-06 04:34:11] rowrow : i don't think it was a self-sell considering the quick dump a few minutes after
[2017-03-06 04:34:23] Coconuter : ok rowrow
[2017-03-06 04:34:39] Coconuter : now I go to bed, hope they pump this to 1400USD today
[2017-03-06 04:35:09] rowrow : i'm sure 1400 is reachable... if the sec doesn't crash it all before then
[2017-03-06 04:36:44] cryptonoob : since the birth of Bitcoin what has been happening every single time we've reached a top?
[2017-03-06 04:37:12] rowrow : either a price fall or a bigger top i suppose
[2017-03-06 04:38:59] elmorte : Price always falls from the top - otherwise it's not the top yet
[2017-03-06 04:40:35] cryptonoob : hard to call the top but once it hits, it won't be a soft landing
[2017-03-06 04:41:57] rowrow : top $9950, crashes to $3k, shorters - "i told you guys"
[2017-03-06 04:42:18] cryptonoob : rowrow: haha yeah, that's typical
[2017-03-06 04:43:10] .. : meh im mostly short as hedge against potential ETF denial, I think it will go more down on denial than some people think
[2017-03-06 04:43:20] .. : if it gets approved I will be happy to be rekt
[2017-03-06 04:45:14] .. : I can see us go to ~1360 before decision though, hopefully not too much above 1400 (before decision), but we will see
[2017-03-06 04:49:57] monish : Hi....am too new on this...want to know what is the minimum investment and how it works
[2017-03-06 04:51:56] .. : min is probably $1, its not an investment but you can just sell/buy contract if you think price goes up/down in that market
[2017-03-06 04:52:30] .. : thats real basic, better just try out with 10 bucks and read all the info/FAQ pages
[2017-03-06 04:53:25] monish : ok thanks
[2017-03-06 04:53:52] monish : Is there any way that i invest and someone operates it for me...as in when to buy n sell
[2017-03-06 04:54:05] monish : as its not possible for me to keep a track of this full time
[2017-03-06 04:55:33] .. : no, if someone offers thats its a scam
[2017-03-06 04:55:57] monish : ok thanks...will read the info and then invest
[2017-03-06 04:55:57] .. : gotta trade yourself if u wanna trade
[2017-03-06 04:56:01] monish : ok
[2017-03-06 04:59:23] Hawkeye : monish: if you cant trade regulary , it might be best just to buy real btc
[2017-03-06 05:00:30] Adriana : monish: Buy ETH. It's your best bet
[2017-03-06 05:03:35] coolmans : hello
[2017-03-06 05:03:44] coolmans : how to change liquidation price?
[2017-03-06 05:04:01] coolmans : i opened a long position on btc
[2017-03-06 05:04:19] Adriana : monish: http://bluemagic.info/
[2017-03-06 05:04:27] coolmans : but i want to edit the liquidation price. seems to change only when i change the leaverage
[2017-03-06 05:04:41] BitMEX_John : coolmans: to change your liquidation price you need to adjust your leverage
[2017-03-06 05:05:27] BitMEX_John : coolmans: you can use the 'Liquidation Price' tab in the calculator tool to see how leverage and liquidation price relate
[2017-03-06 05:06:07] coolmans : BitMEX_John: no way to actually change it yourself then? Independent of leverage?
[2017-03-06 05:06:30] coolmans : that would be better
[2017-03-06 05:06:36] coolmans : IMHO
[2017-03-06 05:07:14] degen : IS the open value the total of longs and shorts or just one side?
[2017-03-06 05:07:53] DangerandPlay : Outright certainty over an ETF approval feels eerily similar to the chatter preceding Trump and Brexit. I feel it just might happen... The universe is fucking with us all.
[2017-03-06 05:08:04] DangerandPlay : ETF rejection*
[2017-03-06 05:08:35] startChat : degen: number of open contracts
[2017-03-06 05:08:45] coolmans : DangerandPlay: i wonder if they are really ready to let the Pandora out of the box...
[2017-03-06 05:10:02] DangerandPlay : I think some might feel they might as well do it now and get a head start... they might think they will have more control over it if they get in early
[2017-03-06 05:10:38] coolmans : DangerandPlay: no doubt...chinese have said they will digitize the RMB
[2017-03-06 05:10:49] coolmans : whatever THAT means
[2017-03-06 05:10:50] BitMEX_John : coolmans: no, you can't set your liquidation price directly, best bet is to use the calc tool to model how much leverage you can use while keeping your desired liquidation price
[2017-03-06 05:10:50] coolmans : LOL
[2017-03-06 05:11:14] coolmans : BitMEX_John: thanks. would be nice to set it urself ;)
[2017-03-06 05:12:32] kurkudu : Adriana: is it a joke $25K assets fund?
[2017-03-06 05:12:33] BitMEX_John : coolmans: I will pass your feedback onto the team for further consideration :)
[2017-03-06 05:13:48] Adriana : kurkudu: Our fellow trollboxer is running this fund. He was here yesterday :)
[2017-03-06 05:15:31] kurkudu : Adriana: trollboxer who won the biggest rekt prize sometime ago?
[2017-03-06 05:15:45] north : How do you set trade leverage amount on bitfinex?
[2017-03-06 05:16:40] north : *rate
[2017-03-06 05:16:45] BitMEX_John : north: there is a slider in the RHS panel
[2017-03-06 05:17:08] BitMEX_John : north: by default it will be on 'cross' but you can set it from 1x to 100x
[2017-03-06 05:18:38] north : BitMEX_John: yeah I like how simple it is on bitmex, can't figure it out on bitfinex though
[2017-03-06 05:19:09] BitMEX_John : north: apologies, I misread haha, hopefully someone can help you out
[2017-03-06 05:19:55] north : No worries, thanks anyway
[2017-03-06 05:20:07] Adriana : kurkudu: Nope. Not that one. Just found in Achive from yesterday. His name is rustiv
[2017-03-06 05:23:24] Adriana : kurkudu: The fund name is pretty cool though
[2017-03-06 05:24:49] kurkudu : Adriana: ok, got it. That could be epic fail if it was that rekt guy) saw rustiv in troll box but didn't realize that he is running it
[2017-03-06 05:26:56] Adriana : kurkudu: The fund introduction https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1735130.0 . Very cute
[2017-03-06 05:28:56] kurkudu : Adriana: they should at least implement smart contract to lock investors funds, otherwise they won't be able to collect more than these $25K

[2017-03-06 05:36:26] Adriana : kurkudu: it's pretty much the whole idea of iconomi where they planning to operate on
[2017-03-06 05:37:02] rowrow : looks pretty scammish - not necessarily "steal your money" scammish, but "you're throwing away your money" scammish
[2017-03-06 05:38:04] rowrow : all the random bolding, emphasis, and attempt to make it sound professional by repeating its "names" over and over, looks about on par with a pyramid scheme for respectability
[2017-03-06 05:40:44] odieoh : Iconomi is a joke as far as I can tell. There's no clear information about how they will make money- how much fees are going to be etc. It smacks of get-rich hype to me.
[2017-03-06 05:42:39] rowrow : basically paying someone else to gamble with your money at best
[2017-03-06 05:47:34] odieoh : yep

[2017-03-06 05:51:01] odieoh : Venture capitalism is hard enough even for people who know what they're doing. Doing it by community vote with a bunch of internet strangers? Yikes

[2017-03-06 07:40:26] rowrow : elmorte: yeah due in part to index dump a few hours back - i'm guessing it won't stay at .33% for next round, but it'll still be pretty high
[2017-03-06 07:40:46] rowrow : probably .25 again
[2017-03-06 07:41:38] elmorte : mini dump right there...

[2017-03-06 09:47:55] Puffle-Razor-Spark : rangle: yeah, lose everyday or in one big swoop... bot are unappealing to me
[2017-03-06 09:48:48] Puffle-Razor-Spark : do I have to triple the funding rate here to get to daily % if i hold long-term?
[2017-03-06 09:49:09] Ahhere : I've been building a 2k xmr long on polo since christmas and my total fees are 0.01bitcoin total
[2017-03-06 09:49:43] Puffle-Razor-Spark : eg 3x0.25% (for 0.25 every 8hrs)?
[2017-03-06 09:50:13] Puffle-Razor-Spark : Ahhere: but thats only a 25BTC position?
[2017-03-06 09:50:32] Puffle-Razor-Spark : still cheap
[2017-03-06 09:51:36] cryptobull : crash
[2017-03-06 09:51:38] Puffle-Razor-Spark : I have -0.525XBT realised PNL since yesterday, though including taker fees
[2017-03-06 09:51:50] Ahhere : Puffle-Razor-Spark: yeah but yours is only 10x mine and and my total 3 months fees are less than only a few hours of your fees
[2017-03-06 09:52:50] Ahhere : my fees were a dollar a day so 10x position would be 10 dollars a day
[2017-03-06 09:53:20] Ahhere : $500 is wat
[2017-03-06 09:54:08] Puffle-Razor-Spark : Ahhere: taker fees 0.00075*290XBT+funding fees
[2017-03-06 09:55:16] Puffle-Razor-Spark : about 0.3075XBT or ~$400 fees (not 500 as i said initially)
[2017-03-06 09:56:07] Ahhere : lol that sounds more like it "on finex I paid $50/day for funding, now I pay $500/day - how is that fair?" << i was like holy shit thats high
[2017-03-06 09:56:56] Puffle-Razor-Spark : you mean $500 is outrageous, but $400 is not?
[2017-03-06 09:57:58] Ahhere : well the taker fees are once off only when you open / close trade, not daily
[2017-03-06 09:59:06] Puffle-Razor-Spark : Ahhere: yes, thats ok, though I sold 100k contracts as maker, and I dont know if the unrealised PNL reflect the -0.025% of that
[2017-03-06 10:01:36] Dynamix : Cannondrop

[2017-03-06 10:03:43] rapidtrades : currency of the future right here folks!
[2017-03-06 10:03:53] Puffle-Razor-Spark : elmorte: ah thanks, thats what I meant! So add those $25 to the fees, thus $425 fees paid since yesterday
[2017-03-06 10:04:08] rapidtrades : im sure wall street is just waiting to dump millions in this POS
[2017-03-06 10:04:36] Puffle-Razor-Spark : didn't you use an idiotic fee of 20 cents?
[2017-03-06 10:04:53] elmorte : Puffle-Razor-Spark: yeah, that's why I only play with the futures
[2017-03-06 10:05:02] rapidtrades : Puffle-Razor-Spark: ''idiotic''
[2017-03-06 10:05:18] rapidtrades : guess i should've used kraken's 9 cent SEPA trasfer
[2017-03-06 10:05:38] rapidtrades : and got actual usable money not some joke tokens
[2017-03-06 10:05:43] Puffle-Razor-Spark : rapidtrades: sorry that meant 'unreasonably low in times of congestion'
[2017-03-06 10:05:59] rapidtrades : 10 cent was the norm 1 year ago
[2017-03-06 10:06:29] Puffle-Razor-Spark : bitcoin grew up in a smallblocker neighbourhood my friend
[2017-03-06 10:06:45] Puffle-Razor-Spark : no denying
[2017-03-06 10:07:09] rapidtrades : yeah it takes a lot of transations to move money in and out of exchanges constantly
[2017-03-06 10:07:20] rapidtrades : cos u never know when one will go down with ur bitcoins
[2017-03-06 10:07:33] rapidtrades : that's 99% of tranfers out there
[2017-03-06 10:08:16] Puffle-Razor-Spark : rapidtrades: truth
[2017-03-06 10:10:35] Apocalyptic : rapidtrades: nice funding coming bra
[2017-03-06 10:12:17] rapidtrades : yes
[2017-03-06 10:12:23] Ahhere : anybody else OCD about position sizes even though it costs them money?
[2017-03-06 10:12:28] rapidtrades : too bad next one dropped from 0.35
[2017-03-06 10:12:48] ross : Monero going up nicely
[2017-03-06 10:13:09] rapidtrades : Ahhere: u mean fidget so that the size is exactly right?
[2017-03-06 10:14:07] Ahhere : rapidtrades: I mean I often click and take using market buy or sell. then notice my position size is not quite round so I'll buy a few extra contracts to make it round even if the next offer is quite a bit out
[2017-03-06 10:14:38] Ahhere : cant cope with a position ending in 326 or some shit
[2017-03-06 10:15:12] rapidtrades : yeah i kinda do that when arbing, guess its not optimal
[2017-03-06 10:15:37] rapidtrades : guess btc size fluctuates based on pric
[2017-03-06 10:15:39] ross : Ahhere: I hate when my profit is 0.326 or whatever I have to wait till it's 0.4. But usually it drops by the time that happens and I lose
[2017-03-06 10:15:53] rapidtrades : ross: ur an idiot
[2017-03-06 10:16:05] ross : rapidtrades: OCD
[2017-03-06 10:16:28] rapidtrades : lot of OCD ppl here it seems
[2017-03-06 10:16:59] rapidtrades : the Autism level here is definitely bigger then the cumulative IQ level
[2017-03-06 10:17:02] ross : Right now I'm up 0.23 and I don't want to be close
[2017-03-06 10:17:12] Ahhere : ross: i totally do that but I've learned to choose a reasonable p&l target and then round it down so I'm not waiting for a round number that will never come lol
[2017-03-06 10:18:21] Puffle-Razor-Spark : So with 207 XTB longs, I will pay 207*0.002539=0.525573 in funding fees, correct?
[2017-03-06 10:18:39] ross : I'm trolling, anything green is music in my ears. The rounding down is a good strategy
[2017-03-06 10:18:44] Puffle-Razor-Spark : looks totally gay
[2017-03-06 10:18:59] Puffle-Razor-Spark : ^ can someone verify please?
[2017-03-06 10:19:50] Ahhere : ross: who is the asshole selling 3009 contracts at 1322.8
[2017-03-06 10:19:58] Ahhere : 3009!! what an asshole
[2017-03-06 10:20:14] Puffle-Razor-Spark : That means XBT has to go up by something like $3.25 every 8 hours to make me profit. this sucks
[2017-03-06 10:20:57] Ahhere : bots have no self respect
[2017-03-06 10:20:59] Puffle-Razor-Spark : Long term swaps my ass
[2017-03-06 10:21:49] ross : Ahhere: I put an order in at limit and I hate when 2173/3000 fill
[2017-03-06 10:22:15] Puffle-Razor-Spark : ross: just buy the rest as taker. dont be cheap
[2017-03-06 10:22:46] Ahhere : ross: ouch getting 70% filled means you got the bottom but those odd numbers hurt
[2017-03-06 10:23:19] Puffle-Razor-Spark : rapidtrades: what is your ratio unrealised realised PNL for the shorts?
[2017-03-06 10:23:44] Puffle-Razor-Spark : rapidtrades: I mean how much are you down compared to what you took in in fees?
[2017-03-06 10:24:22] rapidtrades : both are red lol

[2017-03-06 11:11:24] Puffle-Razor-Spark : no thanks
[2017-03-06 11:11:41] kingkrung : a question: for what is leverage in XBT needed? I understand, if I chose a leverage of 100 I will get liquidated quit fast, if price goes wrong direction. So it possilbe to use 1BTC to sell/buy 100BTC? But Its not possilibe to 100 fold my earnings, by risking 1btc.
[2017-03-06 11:12:26] Puffle-Razor-Spark : kingkrung it is possible, that's why it's called leverage
[2017-03-06 11:15:36] Puffle-Razor-Spark : You buy 100XBT @ 1280, you sell 100XBT @ 1290 you made $1000 - fees. Measured in margin, your 1 XBT margin has made over 80% profit.
[2017-03-06 11:16:55] kingkrung : I have to gamble with $1 trades to get this
[2017-03-06 11:20:52] donsteep : well more like $5 but yes
[2017-03-06 11:31:43] cryptoyolo : wtf is up with this bitcoin, thought we had some more mojo
[2017-03-06 11:33:02] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTUSD`: sell 1111 @ 1278.07
[2017-03-06 11:33:33] Puffle-Razor-Spark : who gets rekt @ 1278??
[2017-03-06 11:33:56] vgck : 100x who else?
[2017-03-06 11:34:10] Puffle-Razor-Spark : sometimes I think those are fake rekts, not even possible at 100x
[2017-03-06 11:34:24] Puffle-Razor-Spark : where did the guy buy his long??
[2017-03-06 11:34:43] CutTheLosses : 1281
[2017-03-06 11:34:43] donsteep : at 100 easily if bought at recent top
[2017-03-06 11:34:46] vgck : If I go 100x, liq is like 3-4 dollars down
[2017-03-06 11:34:57] vgck : Do he probably bought at 1279-80
[2017-03-06 11:35:07] donsteep : market-buy and the range is another $1 less
[2017-03-06 11:35:11] vgck : 100x yolo longed the top like a pro
[2017-03-06 11:35:15] CutTheLosses : LoL
[2017-03-06 11:35:58] laisee : its easy if you know how ...
[2017-03-06 11:36:04] Puffle-Razor-Spark : you have to be a yolo pro to be able to do that, damn
[2017-03-06 11:36:06] vgck : tbf it also means he only lost like $15, rapid is right the r/r is too good not to do it
[2017-03-06 11:36:38] Puffle-Razor-Spark : vgck: there is never a r/r too good.
[2017-03-06 11:36:54] fulrik : rapidtrades Nothing is so bad that it is not good for something. You are practically a celeb in this box.
[2017-03-06 11:36:56] vgck : Puffle-Razor-Spark: If it started to rally and we hit 1300, his roe would've been great
[2017-03-06 11:37:24] vgck : He can get liq'd tons of times, just has to time it once to make it all worth it
[2017-03-06 11:37:27] zy : why the difference with the mark price?
[2017-03-06 11:37:30] laisee : degen gamblers gonna gamble in degen fashion ...
[2017-03-06 11:39:53] Puffle-Razor-Spark : zy: fees in 20 minutes
[2017-03-06 11:40:07] fulrik : vgck: Doesn't seem like a solid strategy to me...
[2017-03-06 11:41:27] vgck : fulrik: This one guy on reddit 100x longed 1 XBT, he had like +40 BTC P/N for a while
[2017-03-06 11:41:53] vgck : Turning 1k into 40k from one well timed position
[2017-03-06 11:42:28] Ahhere : for a while.. what did he close at?
[2017-03-06 11:42:49] vgck : He took like 3 BTC profit then let it liq cuz he's an idiot
[2017-03-06 11:43:14] Ahhere : lol yikes
[2017-03-06 11:43:30] vgck : But still, how many time's can he get liq'd and still make bank?
[2017-03-06 11:43:47] vgck : I don't do it, but seems like a decent strategy to me
[2017-03-06 11:44:44] Ahhere : in crypto it makes total sense. do that shit in forex and they will come looking for what you owe. your 1k becomes -10k in forex
[2017-03-06 11:45:06] vgck : lol true
[2017-03-06 11:52:56] ross : Monero is making me a ton
[2017-03-06 11:55:39] Ahhere : sweet me too
[2017-03-06 11:57:48] reyno : why is the funding fee so high?
[2017-03-06 11:59:26] donsteep : I've been wondering about that too, what is it based on?
[2017-03-06 12:00:17] Ahhere : ah funding nice
[2017-03-06 12:00:32] vgck : To the moon?
[2017-03-06 12:01:13] donsteep : if we don't get to moon soon, funding will go there without us apparently
[2017-03-06 12:01:57] reyno : im -1.1xbt on funding
[2017-03-06 12:02:31] reyno : 1300 is needed
[2017-03-06 12:04:14] vgck : Or 1100, and all the longs get REKT on top of the funding :p
[2017-03-06 12:06:41] thomaskikansha : 0.23% funding oh
[2017-03-06 12:07:28] rejndjer : im new to this scene what does 0.23% funding mean?
[2017-03-06 12:08:25] PARAFFIN : Funding occurs every 8 hours at 04:00 UTC, 12:00 UTC and 20:00 UTC. You will only pay or receive funding if you hold a position at one of these times. If you close your position prior to the funding exchange then you will not pay or receive funding.
[2017-03-06 12:08:44] PARAFFIN : Funding = Position Value * Funding Rate
