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.

[2015-12-06 18:39:13] rapidtrades : sleger: are u sure? u don't even know how many contarcts ur long [2015-12-06 18:39:21] rapidtrades : maybe u just blanked out?

[2015-12-06 19:07:58] TschavaTschigger : podizzler3k: train a recurrent neural network based on past time series to predict prices [2015-12-06 19:08:58] podizzler3k : i thought neural networks worked by trying all possibilites with and eliminating ones that dont work [2015-12-06 19:09:20] podizzler3k : the narrowing bullseye [2015-12-06 19:09:20] TschavaTschigger : podizzler3k: that are genetic algorithms as far as I know [2015-12-06 19:09:44] laisee : pod> yep, thats genetic algorithms [2015-12-06 19:09:50] podizzler3k : ah [2015-12-06 19:10:41] podizzler3k : ill tell you what i dont look forward to is advertising that uses neural networks [2015-12-06 19:11:15] laisee : outside of renaissance technologies I don't know anyone that made nueral networks to be profitable for long term. [2015-12-06 19:12:04] podizzler3k : i imagine a lot of interesting music and art will come of neural networks [2015-12-06 19:12:17] podizzler3k : those google dreams are already pretty cool [2015-12-06 19:12:27] podizzler3k : looks like huobi is waking up [2015-12-06 19:12:38] TschavaTschigger : laisee: in forex or stock markets it's harder since markets are very efficient there and based on external factors. bitcoin market on the other hand is ineffecient and only driven by supply and demand [2015-12-06 19:13:05] TschavaTschigger : so my thought is that neural networks would work pretty well there... but since I don't have cs background, too hard to implement for me [2015-12-06 19:13:45] laisee : TschavaTschigger: > check out HTM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_temporal_memory [2015-12-06 19:14:07] laisee : it's not too hard to follow and there is a framework you can use. [2015-12-06 19:17:33] TschavaTschigger : laisee: nice, seems very similar to neural networks with multiple layers. well the hard part about that stuff is not just the implementation (many libraries available), but you need lot of hands-on-time for training and tweaking parameters.. otherwise results will be rather disappointing [2015-12-06 19:18:35] laisee : true. takes some effort. [2015-12-06 19:19:04] TschavaTschigger : besides I don't have time for that. should work on my master thesis. which also uses machine learning ironically lol. [2015-12-06 19:19:21] laisee : ah, so you know all about this stuff ... [2015-12-06 19:20:34] laisee : well, in case you want to play around, http://numenta.org has open source code & examples. [2015-12-06 19:20:36] TschavaTschigger : nope, for my thesis I just use a lib, put my stuff in hope for the best. since it's a very easy to use library that doesn't apply to time-series, I can't use my knowledge for trading [2015-12-06 19:22:52] TschavaTschigger : thanks, bookmarked all the stuff. don't think I will find time actually trying it though [2015-12-06 19:27:34] laisee : k. well there if you get bored, or interested.

I mean I could click through the pages and download the csvs, but that's a bit inconvenient [2015-12-06 19:49:28] habibi : i bet i am paying more fees some sesions than rapidtrades earns/losts :D [2015-12-06 19:50:07] habibi : so TschavaTschigger or sleger even more [2015-12-06 20:45:12] rapidtrades : sam will ''FILLED'' notifications show up in other tabs if I have them blocked in my browser?
