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.

[2017-03-22 21:15:15] IRC-Source_78370 : the ite is down
[2017-03-22 21:15:23] IRC-Source_78370 : i've got "scheduled maintenance" message

[2017-03-22 21:16:01] IRC-Source_78370 : was it announced somewhere?

[2017-03-22 21:22:12] DoubleU : says everyone else is using IRC
[2017-03-22 21:22:24] STRML : Yes, the connection to the trading engine is currently down, which causes issues with login, but if your page is still open it is somewhat operation
[2017-03-22 21:22:26] STRML : operational*

[2017-03-22 21:27:47] IRC-Source_78370 : according to the counter there were 1000+ users before the site went down, no trades since 20minutes and noone complains nice ^^
[2017-03-22 21:29:35] DoubleU : if price was moving people would complain but price hasnt moved in 30 minutes
[2017-03-22 21:29:49] MikeHunt : we are testing 1k

[2017-03-22 21:42:35] MikeHunt : http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/This-is-an-outrage.jpg
[2017-03-22 21:42:50] stf28 : i bet on some bot that gone crazy
[2017-03-22 21:43:09] BitMEX_Wally : Farzad: A process failed and did not gracefully restart
[2017-03-22 21:43:16] MikeHunt : bitmex testing their frontrunning bot?

[2017-03-22 21:45:33] Farzad : BitMEX_Greg: it has nothing to do with your current situation
[2017-03-22 21:45:52] BitMEX_Wally : Sorry, we are delaying the resumption of trading
[2017-03-22 21:45:55] BitMEX_Greg : Farzad: Limited market makers in those contracts unfortunately. Our current market maker has pulled all their quotes
[2017-03-22 21:46:02] rapidgains : Lmao

[2017-03-22 21:47:29] MikeHunt : bitmex loading the helicopter with btc and making a getaway
[2017-03-22 21:47:31] aron : ???
[2017-03-22 21:47:34] BitMEX_Greg : Farzad: Also be aware that we are not responsible for providing liquidity. We alert the market makers if they are out for a questionable period of time, but it is somewhat at their discretion to provide quotes
[2017-03-22 21:47:42] BitMEX_Wally : Resuming at 21:50 UTC in 3 minutes
[2017-03-22 21:47:53] stf28 : BitMEX_Wally: thanks
[2017-03-22 21:47:53] L9 : Hey, I am shorting, will my position be liquidated?

[2017-03-22 21:48:47] aron : uk
[2017-03-22 21:48:47] L9 : I planned to close at market with profit. Why the stuff was halted?
[2017-03-22 21:48:49] DoubleU : i got my market buying finger ready. 75 seconds

[2017-03-22 21:49:27] Sean__ : cause you are british
[2017-03-22 21:49:30] Sean__ : ;-)
[2017-03-22 21:49:46] aron : cryptoyolo trading is frozen
[2017-03-22 21:49:46] Sean__ : you must service the queen mum
[2017-03-22 21:49:47] BitMEX_Sam : Trading resuming momentarily
[2017-03-22 21:49:49] Sean__ : and then you get money
[2017-03-22 21:49:50] aron : just like your heart
[2017-03-22 21:49:55] cryptoyolo : wtf
[2017-03-22 21:49:58] cryptoyolo : market buy this shit
[2017-03-22 21:50:02] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 40 @ 1016.97
[2017-03-22 21:50:02] REKT : Liquidated short on `XBTUSD`: buy 3 @ 1017.96 :punch: :whale:
[2017-03-22 21:50:02] REKT : Close your longs, close your shorts, choppy waters ahead!
[2017-03-22 21:50:04] aron : why buy?
[2017-03-22 21:50:12] BitMEX_Wally : Trading has resumed
[2017-03-22 21:50:13] aron : why are u assuming a pump?
[2017-03-22 21:50:42] aron : does it always go up after trading is paused?
[2017-03-22 21:51:29] DoubleU : nice MM back
[2017-03-22 21:51:45] aron : to 1100 we go
[2017-03-22 21:51:53] L9 : My position was liquidated at the downtime, how can I awoid in the future?
[2017-03-22 21:51:57] aron : bitmex wally are u online?
[2017-03-22 21:52:03] DoubleU : L9: lower leverage
[2017-03-22 21:52:37] L9 : DoubleU: But I planned to close with profit my order was just cancelled. Why??
[2017-03-22 21:53:04] stf28 : L9: provide collateral for at least 100$ trading before liquidation
[2017-03-22 21:53:49] Sean__ : lol
[2017-03-22 21:53:52] Sean__ : put more money
[2017-03-22 21:53:54] Sean__ : in your account
[2017-03-22 21:53:56] Sean__ : for leverage
[2017-03-22 21:53:59] Sean__ : simple math
[2017-03-22 21:55:11] DoubleU : L9: sometimes unexpected things happen which you have to take into account
[2017-03-22 21:55:30] L9 : Sean__: My question was other why the profitable position was liquidated at the downtime. Shouldn't pending orders be executed after trading started again?
[2017-03-22 21:55:55] Tux26 : Who was complaining about bid side liquidity for quarterlies? Looks nice now :D
[2017-03-22 21:56:39] Farzad : Tux26: they go on and off
[2017-03-22 21:59:37] DoubleU : okcoin spot higher than other exchanges wtf
[2017-03-22 22:02:17] REKT : Liquidated long on `XBTM17`: sell 100 @ 1004.25
[2017-03-22 22:03:11] L9 : Can I trade again after my position was liquidated?
[2017-03-22 22:04:48] donsteep : if you still have coins left
[2017-03-22 22:05:36] gustavo7 : lol back to 1010
[2017-03-22 22:06:18] L9 : donsteep: I used isolated margin only position collateral burnt
[2017-03-22 22:06:58] L9 : donsteep: "Stop Loss" at some point
[2017-03-22 22:07:05] thxforyourbtc! : If you hold a contract through expiration does the settlement charge any fee?
[2017-03-22 22:07:28] BitMEX_Greg : thxforyourbtc!: Please refer to our Fees page: https://www.bitmex.com/app/fees
[2017-03-22 22:07:59] donsteep : L9: then yes, of course. why wouldn't you?
[2017-03-22 22:09:00] L9 : So to avoid losses at unexpected downtime it seems I shouldn't use cross margin
[2017-03-22 22:09:38] donsteep : that's a way to look at it
[2017-03-22 22:10:25] donsteep : it's better not to let positions liquidate but I think it's a proper fail safe
[2017-03-22 22:18:36] mark121 : lol who sold all that ETH 20 mins ago
[2017-03-22 22:19:12] mark121 : i fear for u
[2017-03-22 22:21:05] thxforyourbtc! : if btc forks all of a sudden are contracts worthless?
[2017-03-22 22:21:18] mark121 : it wont hapen all of a sudden
[2017-03-22 22:22:01] justinlooking : putin got wood???
[2017-03-22 22:22:56] mark121 : why would cross margin help you any more or less than isolated margin during downtime
[2017-03-22 22:23:49] donsteep : mark121: on the wrong side of the movement, isolated margin caps your losses
[2017-03-22 22:24:11] mark121 : assuming sure
[2017-03-22 22:24:15] mark121 : oops
[2017-03-22 22:24:26] mark121 : sure, but it could also cause u to liquidate
[2017-03-22 22:24:39] mark121 : where cross wud have saved u
[2017-03-22 22:24:40] donsteep : that's kind of the point, isn't it?
[2017-03-22 22:25:57] donsteep : reasonably you'd probably have a stop loss level in mind but I'd imagine those won't trigger in extreme conditions either
[2017-03-22 22:26:00] mark121 : hence why one wud be better than the other as a given for downtime
[2017-03-22 22:26:52] mark121 : ya, during downtime it wudnt help ya if it movement occurs during it
[2017-03-22 22:27:19] donsteep : if you want to a hard stop loss then margin does that for you, other than that it's all situational anyway
[2017-03-22 22:27:25] mark121 : i was wondering what is bitmex policy
[2017-03-22 22:27:48] mark121 : if i.e. u got rekt durin that downtime
[2017-03-22 22:28:04] mark121 : (assuming not scheduled maintence)
[2017-03-22 22:30:04] KingTuna : How does one mitigate the risk and hedge whilst waiting for Bitmex to manually process withdrawals?
[2017-03-22 22:30:30] mark121 : pray
[2017-03-22 22:30:54] j8 : keep enough balance elsewhere to manage for a day
[2017-03-22 22:30:54] KingTuna : eg. Had I sent through a withdrawal overnight my time, I would have dropped equivalent of 3 BTC whilst waiting..
[2017-03-22 22:31:34] Ahhere : 1080 by morning goodnight suckers
[2017-03-22 22:32:19] mark121 : its like anything else in this thing of ours Mr Tuna
[2017-03-22 22:32:36] mark121 : timing is everything
[2017-03-22 22:33:42] aethlios : 835 in 2 days
[2017-03-22 22:34:08] donsteep : would it work to go short 1x and withdraw in a few iterations?
[2017-03-22 22:34:47] frog : donsteep: good explanation, it avoids trader ending up with negative balance which is bad for all parties
[2017-03-22 22:35:17] donsteep : please elaborate
[2017-03-22 22:35:22] mark121 : aye but if funding is max -%
[2017-03-22 22:36:02] mark121 : gona be costly
[2017-03-22 22:36:42] mark121 : yes pls elaborate
[2017-03-22 22:36:52] mark121 : :p
[2017-03-22 22:38:12] zy : this is bs, it was 1100 this morning
[2017-03-22 22:38:26] mark121 : not rly
[2017-03-22 22:38:40] DoubleU : all bags have been filled. soon 850
[2017-03-22 22:38:44] mark121 : it certainly wasnt unexpected
[2017-03-22 22:39:42] mark121 : and that $100 in movement is a mighty profitable trade, more than makes up for the loss in value
[2017-03-22 22:39:59] MikeHunt : made $50 today
[2017-03-22 22:40:13] MikeHunt : (50% RoE)
[2017-03-22 22:40:30] MikeHunt : same no real bounce thou
[2017-03-22 22:40:37] MikeHunt : shame*
[2017-03-22 22:42:15] KingTuna : Ah well, I guess I have another 14 hours to make a decison
[2017-03-22 22:42:27] frog : in GFC many traders were unable to fill stops and ended up with negative balances which were valid debts payable to trading operator and tardes couldn't be liquidated before account balance turned negative as no liquidity. Bitmex system gives you protection from this. Short positions were OK though....
[2017-03-22 22:43:36] frog : I was lucky I had one account which went negative balance but dead cat bounce brought it back into positive so i could close with some funds
[2017-03-22 22:45:15] mark121 : negative balances lol
[2017-03-22 22:45:37] mark121 : in equities we calling that blowing up accounts
[2017-03-22 22:46:24] mark121 : fortunately for many, it doesnt count on your credit rating if you abandon/dont pay
[2017-03-22 22:46:35] KingTuna : hmm If I sent my BTC now to BTCE and cashed out, I'd make 1.5 BTC on the arbitrage opportunity
[2017-03-22 22:46:52] mark121 : apparently BTCE is very slow banking
[2017-03-22 22:47:24] KingTuna : mark121: I would just covert to $USD.. Not actually send to bank from there
[2017-03-22 22:47:39] KingTuna : I normally send to localbitcoin if I want to cash out
[2017-03-22 22:48:03] frog : i got many emails in short space of time requesting deposit of additional funds or be liquidated. My account passed liquidation point without liquidation. It was a little frightening. But funny to look back on now. It all happened pretty quick and while I was asleep.
