I'd also be interested in having leverage adjustable through Bookmap

Bitmex recently had a bug with ETHUSD orderbook feed, and they "fixed" it. Direct quote from bitmex blog: "The issue was caused by a rare sequence of order events that triggered a bug in an optimisation of the orderBookL2 calculation which had been deployed to the production environment several hours earlier. This change has since been reverted." - link to Bitmex blog.

Now I can't connect to Bitmex, Bookmap returns a message "Invalid credentials. Please edit credentials and try again. Reason: Not subscribed to orderBookL2:XBTUSD."

So, it seems to me that their fix broke Bitmex adapter.

Will be fixed soon

Great, thanks. 

[AndreyR]

Please update the adapter from Bookmap

[Imaginary Friend]

Yep, it's working.

please implement all bitmex order types asap, especially postonly order type :

with this form it's not profitable even you catch a 15$ move because of the fees.

Hi priceactiontr,
we'll check that out.

Hi,
I'm also want to see the option to set post-only parameter on limit orders.

Maybe you figured it out already but the parameter you have to set for post-only when you send the order is: execInst="ParticipateDoNotInitiate" 

And that works if you use the rest API for orders. I don't know about websocket API. 

And it would be very nice if it is possible to change leverage through BookMap. This is a working example how you can change it:

Code: Select all

 
curl -X POST --header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' --header 'Accept: application/json' --header 'X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest' -d 'symbol=XBTUSD&leverage=5' 'https://www.bitmex.com/api/v1/position/leverage'
