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.

[2015-11-19 12:43:00] messiaen8844 : http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/11/19/us-france-shoooting-eu-terrorism-funding-idUSKCN0T81BW20151119
[2015-11-19 12:43:03] messiaen8844 : getting more likely
[2015-11-19 12:45:27] irbbqu : Yea, China kinda bearish just defending that trendline right now.
[2015-11-19 12:45:39] irbbqu : Rarely works out well.
[2015-11-19 12:46:04] podizzler3k : and how exactly do they plan on preventing terrorists from using bitcoin?
[2015-11-19 12:46:16] podizzler3k : banning fiat withdrawals from all exchanges?
[2015-11-19 12:46:49] wurstgelee : burning all the bitcoins in a fire probably
[2015-11-19 12:46:49] messiaen8844 : moving

[2015-11-19 12:47:04] irbbqu : But whales will use whatever they have ofc.
[2015-11-19 12:47:19] messiaen8844 : i mean, price is moving a bit
[2015-11-19 12:48:29] wurstgelee : only teasing so far
[2015-11-19 12:49:17] podizzler3k : price is moving a bit? could have fooled me
[2015-11-19 12:50:06] brynsolomon : https://www.bitmex.com/app/settlementHistory

[2015-11-19 13:54:41] messiaen8844 : THE FUD:
[2015-11-19 13:54:42] messiaen8844 : But following last week’s terrorist attacks in Paris that killed 129 people, the EU sees bitcoin not as a purveyor of online free-trade, but a means of subverting justice by buying and selling the weapons used to conduct the heinous acts.
[2015-11-19 13:55:51] laisee : heh, unlike cash such as he EURO
[2015-11-19 13:55:52] slacknation : sell!

[2015-11-19 14:22:10] rapidtrades : oh good I only lost like $4
[2015-11-19 14:22:39] rapidtrades : thought it was >15 but that was just locked margin
[2015-11-19 14:30:58] rapidtrades : we may be ready to rollover
[2015-11-19 14:45:41] podizzler3k : and you thought governments were easing up on btc

[2015-11-19 15:08:13] podizzler3k : yeah its china all over again
[2015-11-19 15:08:32] podizzler3k : clearly bitcoin is the real enemy here
[2015-11-19 15:08:38] podizzler3k : derp
[2015-11-19 15:08:59] rapidtrades : gies
[2015-11-19 15:21:25] rapidtrades : we fell to $322 on btc-e
[2015-11-19 15:22:29] wurstgelee : btc-e is always a few dollars below everybody else
[2015-11-19 15:22:43] rapidtrades : few not
[2015-11-19 15:22:53] rapidtrades : $5
[2015-11-19 15:23:12] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah btc-e has been negative relative to the other exchanges for months
[2015-11-19 15:23:16] BitMEX_Sam : It must be difficult to get fiat out
[2015-11-19 15:25:14] BitMEX_Sam : FYI she's doing a new one in a day or two, but from a few months ago, interview with Arthur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDikOI2kVe0
[2015-11-19 15:26:31] rapidtrades : who's arthur
[2015-11-19 15:26:51] BitMEX_Sam : Our CEO
[2015-11-19 15:28:52] rapidtrades : she?
[2015-11-19 15:29:25] wurstgelee : she doing interview with him
[2015-11-19 15:29:37] wurstgelee : open tha link and you'll see
[2015-11-19 15:29:40] wurstgelee : *t
[2015-11-19 15:30:06] rapidtrades : can't open anything atm...whole thing's gonna crash
[2015-11-19 15:30:24] rapidtrades : have too many windows open
[2015-11-19 15:33:24] rapidtrades : everyone expects a dump, prolly means its not coming
[2015-11-19 15:45:29] kendang : are the charts not updating for anyone else? "loading data"
[2015-11-19 15:46:32] rapidtrades : works for me
[2015-11-19 15:52:44] wurstgelee : yep works
[2015-11-19 16:01:04] wayann : it works
[2015-11-19 16:02:59] rapidtrades : SELL THE WORLD
[2015-11-19 16:03:37] nickhnt : u short?
[2015-11-19 16:03:43] rapidtrades : am now
[2015-11-19 16:03:56] nickhnt : why now?
[2015-11-19 16:04:21] rapidtrades : feels like its going down
[2015-11-19 16:05:10] nickhnt : yeah it can
[2015-11-19 16:05:20] nickhnt : but it can go to the top of the triangle again
[2015-11-19 16:06:25] wayann : any expert here with bitmex gui? what's doing that checkbox on the isolate margin?
[2015-11-19 16:07:55] nickhnt : wayann: you are locking the amount of margin required for the position to be liquidated
[2015-11-19 16:08:12] nickhnt : if you disable that, you will be using your entire account for the position
[2015-11-19 16:12:37] wayann : so for instance if I've 0.25x I'm locking 25 % of my entire account right?
[2015-11-19 16:13:17] BitMEX_Sam : wayann: No, if you're 0.25x that means the value of your open positions is equal to 25% of the funds in your account
[2015-11-19 16:13:36] BitMEX_Sam : If you click the isolate box, it will separate out margin, isolating the smallest amount possible to that position
[2015-11-19 16:14:08] BitMEX_Sam : Which is up to 100x depending on the contract. So if you have a 1&btc; XBT24H position, and isolate it, the system will assign 0.01&btc; to that position only
[2015-11-19 16:14:40] BitMEX_Sam : Now, that may put liquidation uncomfortably close, depending on your risk appetite. So if you want more margin of error, you can add margin using the +&btc; button
[2015-11-19 16:15:20] brucegoose : hey, hi. just signed up. thanks for the platform. good luck!
[2015-11-19 16:15:31] BitMEX_Sam : brucegoose: Nice to have you here, let me know if you have any questions.
[2015-11-19 16:16:03] wayann : so if position is loosing more then 0.01 then system will automatically close it right?
[2015-11-19 16:16:35] BitMEX_Sam : wayann: Yes, it limits your losses to 0.01. The system will actually close most positions slightly in order to attempt to get out of the position before it is negative
[2015-11-19 16:16:44] BitMEX_Sam : If we didn't do this, system losses would be much more common and affect all users negatively
[2015-11-19 16:16:56] BitMEX_Sam : See https://www.bitmex.com/app/contract/XBT24H
[2015-11-19 16:17:17] BitMEX_Sam : Namely, Initial Margin (this is what you're set to when you isolate, and is how much is required to open a position), and Maintenance Margin, which is how much is required to keep the position open.
[2015-11-19 16:18:03] wayann : so going in cross margin type is full risk mode
[2015-11-19 16:18:16] BitMEX_Sam : Yes, it will use your whole account balance to back the position
[2015-11-19 16:18:16] nickhnt : pretty much
[2015-11-19 16:18:23] BitMEX_Sam : You can lose more, but it keeps you farther from liquidation
[2015-11-19 16:18:34] BitMEX_Sam : Liquidation is costly so it is best to avoid it.
[2015-11-19 16:18:44] BitMEX_Sam : There are advantages to using either system.
[2015-11-19 16:18:48] nickhnt : yeah I lost a lot because i didnt set stop losses or fixed margins
[2015-11-19 16:19:41] wayann : yes I'm familiar with trading, it's just that I'm a newbie to bitmex
[2015-11-19 16:20:39] BitMEX_Sam : :) No worries, I usually over-explain because it's hard to know a person's experience level off the bat
[2015-11-19 16:21:17] wayann : I'm one of those that survived to MtGox
[2015-11-19 16:22:08] wayann : thx sam & nick :)
[2015-11-19 16:26:17] wayann : btw another question I've entered on a position placing different orders at different target price for example placed 50 contract sell order at 135 and 50 at 133 now how do I close a % of my position like for example 50 contracts at 10% profit and so on, is that doable here?
[2015-11-19 16:27:52] nickhnt : wayann: no problem :)
[2015-11-19 16:28:42] BitMEX_Sam : So have you actually opened the position wayann or are those order still live?
[2015-11-19 16:28:55] BitMEX_Sam : You could just put buy limits in the book at your target price
[2015-11-19 16:29:47] wayann : ok same way like finex does
[2015-11-19 16:29:50] nickhnt : well you can calculate how much you will gain from the calculator that bitmex offers
[2015-11-19 16:30:44] wayann : yes I opened very small position to test it out basically
[2015-11-19 16:31:23] nickhnt : open the Order Options at the top of order controls panel
[2015-11-19 16:31:31] nickhnt : there's a calculator there
[2015-11-19 16:31:41] wayann : yes I saw that, it's very handy!
[2015-11-19 16:31:48] BitMEX_Sam : A big part of the reason we denominate in contracts and not in Bitcoin is because it makes it much easier to adjust positions dynamically
[2015-11-19 16:31:49] nickhnt : yes it is :)
[2015-11-19 16:31:54] BitMEX_Sam : Since the Bitcoin value of them actually changes as the price moves
[2015-11-19 16:32:15] BitMEX_Sam : So rather than having to open close whole positions individually (and having multiple positions per contract), you have a single position you can increase or decrease (or even flip) at will
[2015-11-19 16:33:45] wayann : at the beginning the learning curve is steeper but afterwards looks like driving with autopilot
[2015-11-19 16:35:06] BitMEX_Sam : Agreed, it's definitely more up-front confusion (we're working on that) but we firmly believe we have a better system
[2015-11-19 16:36:49] nickhnt : At first I was a little confused about this whole contracts thing, but nowadays i got used to, its easier to handle positions now
[2015-11-19 16:37:13] wayann : yes indeed
[2015-11-19 16:40:32] wayann : another question let's say you open a cross margin type position, you're position is with X% profit is possible to change it to isolated type?
[2015-11-19 16:41:08] wayann : if so does it liquidate the position? or simply swap from margin type?
[2015-11-19 16:45:51] nickhnt : yes you can change isolate to cross anytime
[2015-11-19 16:47:33] nickhnt : i just don't know if you are in a losing position and then you turn to isolate it will liquidate the position
[2015-11-19 16:47:39] BitMEX_Sam : Yeah, simply switching to isolated won't liquidate.
[2015-11-19 16:47:47] BitMEX_Sam : It will refill the margin to the initial margin %
[2015-11-19 16:47:52] BitMEX_Sam : Even if losing.
[2015-11-19 16:48:10] TschavaTschigger : cool, didn't know that
[2015-11-19 16:48:26] wayann : perfect good to know
[2015-11-19 16:48:35] floopfloop : TschavaTschigger: me either
[2015-11-19 16:50:51] BitMEX_Sam : I'll add a note about that to the tooltip
[2015-11-19 16:51:15] wayann : those tooltip are godsends
[2015-11-19 16:51:20] wayann : tooltips*

[2015-11-19 18:32:31] BitMEX_Sam : Not a chance
[2015-11-19 18:32:41] BitMEX_Sam : It's all FUD anyhow, some articles are reporting that Bitcoin may not even be on the agenda
[2015-11-19 18:37:32] floopfloop : wish I hadn't sold part of my long
[2015-11-19 18:37:44] floopfloop : but the market was iffy there for a sec and I was too deep lol
[2015-11-19 18:41:44] singularity321 : BitMEX_Sam: Could you post any links to said articles please
[2015-11-19 18:42:11] singularity321 : If you're not busy
[2015-11-19 18:43:04] BitMEX_Sam : Read between the lines of http://mobile.reuters.com/article/idUSKCN0T81BW20151119 and what they're actually referencing
[2015-11-19 18:43:11] BitMEX_Sam : And see the discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10594453
[2015-11-19 19:07:32] lockhedge : you can buy a virtual Mastercard (cash4web) or a Bitcoin voucher (Coinfinity) in every tobacco store in Austria anonymously - in other EU countries you have to show your ID - i doubt that the EU will forbid Mastercard or Bitcoin, but firms like cash4web or Coinfinity will very probably have to level up KYC requirements
[2015-11-19 19:13:34] TschavaTschigger : do you work at coinfinity?
[2015-11-19 19:19:55] singularity321 : BitMEX_Sam: thanks for the ycom thread and article sam
