It's not a core feature-- it's a bts 1.0 market making mechanism.   Bts 2.0 should have a new one.  Where is it?

So nobody knows where this feature is? Did dev team not release in bitshares 2.0 and not tell us?

Why is the margin call price for cny 0.0202 BTS/CNY. I just had a one of my short positions called even though my margin price was 0.025 BTS/CNY which the market never hit and the collateral was sold at 0.0202 BTS/CNY. I just lost a lot of money...

Clout what was your collateral? 

If it was only 2Xs, its probably not enough.  It might need to be 5X's in this thin market.

There is no issue if you have lots of collateral if your a shorter. YOu need more than 3Xs.

Even if that's true, 3x collateral won't stay 3x for long with so many people being forced to dump BTS at 2/3 the market rate.

BTS 2.0 Works.  This post has been misdirecting people.  3X will go very far, maybe into 8.88MM.  If that doesn't suit you then do 6X's.  Your shorting it, and it will help peopel buy USD and bring Liquidity to the market.

Otherwise NOTHING is WRONG. 

STAY CALM... BTS 2.0 WORKS.

TO BE CLEAR>  THERE IS NO ISSUE.

Well there is!

If you change the rule...post factum!!!

As was done in this particular case!

Either your not understanding the system, or I am really wrong here.  You CAN POST a ASK on the Market without getting short sqeezed if you have lots of collateral.  Try it.  IT works.

I think this is not a problem if shorts have HIGH COLLATERAL.  YOU NEED MORE THAN 2Xs COLLTERAL.  Try it out for yourself.

The biggest immediate problem now is that the witnesses are forcing those shorts to cover at 150% of feed price instead of near the actual value.  Are only 3 witnesses paying attention?

Why was it set this way?  And is it a good fix to put it at 1.0 SQP?  What other problems are there.

We seem to be fussing about the migrated Bitusd market, which is very low in liquidity right now. If I recall correctly, this migrated market doesn't even have 24h forced settlement.  Would a user created asset have a 24h forced settlement?   WE should be using the full features of BTS 2.0... not sticking to BTS 1.0....

This would get around the problem of the SPQ that is squeezing out all the shorts.  And I incorrect here? 

We should find a group of people to make APPL, GOOG, VIX, SPY, etc, using this 24h forced settlement.  Not this bts 1.0 bitusd....

This would dramatically help with the issues of low thin liquidity we are facing now.  Does anybody know how to enable this?  Is there a step-by-step guide?

So liquidity is causing this problem?  How do we fix?

Why is there a SQP?  Doesnt only forced settlement matter?

If we required 3 times collateral wouldn't this all be irrelevant?
