What if I place two positions at the same time one going long, one going short. Wouldn’t this result in a win every time?

$18,50x short - $18,50x long, win $60 back at few hundred

>> No.9945559

It does result in a win every time, but it also results in a loss every time.

You're probably larping but this is why:
> BTC goes up
> You gain X minus fees on your long and you lose X plus fees on your short
> Net: you lose 0+(2*fees)

>> No.9945617

>>9945535
no because if could go up and down and close your short and long

It's called hedging you dumb fuck.

Good luck opening a long and a short at the same time on one account you moron.

You didn't figure out the secret code.
You lose from fees for opening both positions.

You sir are a moron. You are NOT a trader.
Bye.

The tards talking about fees must’ve forgotten about the fact that Bitmex *PAYS YOU* .025% x leverage for maker trades. So if you place a limit order and limit stop/take profit, you get 5% cashback on your position at 100x leverage.

I know there’s still something that invalidates whatever OP’s thinking, but it does still surprise me how many people don’t know about the maker rebates on mex and I literally just started trading there.

the problem is
you $20 100x=
20x100x short =call 7020 ----20x100x long 6980
the price can go up 7020 close your short and then 1 minute later go back 6980 and close your long, and the price really act like this 70% of the time
